Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer Reviews

FLAWLESS LOOK!!
I finally gave in and bought this primer six months ago... I know it's a bit pricey..but worth every penny. I've used it alone..and it gives me a silky clean healthy look. for the days I don't want to wear makeup! I am pleased with this product! — 3 months, 4 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

Works Well
This leaves a velvety finish and helps even out my skin tone. My favorite thing about it is that it helps foundation stick and last longer throughout the day so I don't have to do any reapplication. The containers are small but a little bit goes a long way, so they will last a while. Cons: it is pricey and I don't know if it lives up to all the hype. However, it does work well and I will probably be buying this again. — 4 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Smooth and silky
One if my favorite primers. The only other one I love is Loreal magic perfecting base. It fills in the lines a little better that smashbox but doesn't have the anti aging ingredients — 4 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not Impressed
This did absolutely nothing for me. Made my skin look like an oil slick...my makeup faded in blotchy patches and actually, my makeup looked better without it. I 30 years old with fairly oily, acne prone skin and this broke me out. Also, when applying it, it had a tendency to peel or to roll into little balls. Not worth the money. I don't understand why people rave about this stuff?? I certainly wasn't impressed and won't purchase again. — 6 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Best Primer I've ever tried!
I love this primer. I started using it a few months before my wedding. My skin gets red easily and I wanted something that would cover up the redness in pictures. This product far exceeded my expectations. It's so soft and smooth. I use it everyday! — 7 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

Primer that works!
I have mature but oily skin and have tried several different facial primers. They either left me too shiny or made my skin break out. Smashbox Light Primer works perfectly for me. Camouflages large pores and a few small lines around the eyes. Foundation goes on beautifully and looks great all day if I choose to wear it. And, this primer leaves my skin soft and clear after I take it off at night. — 8 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not bad..
I've been using this primer for a while now until I discovered bb creams and have stopped. I was ok happy before but now do not think I will ever go back to using this primer unless I have run out of any other product. It goes on very smooth on the skin and feels quite refreshing. I usually put it over my moisturizer and then follow with my foundation and concealer and then cover everything with the Smashbox Hydrating Powder which is great. Usually by lunch time my face is still pretty in tact but when I get home in the evening most of is gone and I get blotches on my face from where the makeup has come off. If I'll be going out again I'll just reapply some powder and blush etc, but it goes against the point of having to touch up my foundation... — 9 months, 4 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Still on the Fence
I switch between this and MUF primer. I love the way this product feels, its velvety and weightless but I'm not in love with the way my makeup goes on top of it. I wear mineral makeup and with the amount of blending I do, the primer almost starts to flack off, making me look ashy and like I have dry skin. Still giving it a try but right now I like the MUF primer better! — 10 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I have actually worn smashbox photo finish primer without makeup. That is how well it makes my skin feel. I have used several versions of it. I am just sorry they took the bronzer primer off the market
I love all the smashbox primers!! I have actually worn them without makeup. I am only sorry they don't make the bronze primer anymore. It was great to wear with or without makeup. You can't beat smashbox!! — 10 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
