Great Multitasker

This appears dark in the bottle but goes on quite sheer. Even on my light complexion it's just a hint of color to even out skin tone and perfect if you wear sunblock with a slight white tint, it will add the color back and looks very natural. If you don't need coverage then this can replace your tinted moisturizer. It also feels very comfortable, not sticky or greasy but goes on smooth. Also available in travel size.

loveeee

i love this because my face is a little lighter than my body. if i use this primer under makeup, it gives me just a little boost. it's also great to wear alone in the summer. only reason its not a 10 is because its kind of expensive for only 1. 7 oz.

Worth every single penny :D

I knew absolutely nothing about primers or Smashbox on the whole when I was shopping in a makeup store. But wanting to try something, I spoke to a makeup artist there and she recommended this type of primer over the regular one because of my chocolate brown skin tone. And I have to say to all readers of brown, tanned or dark complexion (i.e women of colour), this stuff is the TRUTH. Goes on smooth...read morely, you don't need much and it gives your makeup such a nicer finish than without it. You can even use it by itself or just with loose powder if you want a more natural look. Definitely worth the buy.

Wonderful

I absolutely love how soft my skin feels after i apply primer, this one is particular does two jobs for one...so its perfect. The bronzer isnt too much, its subtle so it doesnt look fake.

I have used better....Primer

Okay, so I heard all this good stuff about smashbox having the best primer. I have to say I wasn't impressed with this particular bronzer primer. I really didn't feel like it did much for me. I also felt like I had to use a lot to actually get something out of it. Plus it was over $45. So In my opinion, I would pass.
