great for oily skin
This is the only sunscreen for my face that does not make me break out or make my face shinier, even during the summer. It absorbs quickly and protects my skin. — 5 years, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 8 people said helpful

Thee Best One YET!!!
So, I've tried "others" but keep comin' back to Prep & Prime. I don't have OIL-SLICK if I wear certain foundations and even when I do not wear ANY. My skin is just very oily, always has been. So, if I do not wear a primer, IMO my face begins to look like a Umm.. milk chocolate MUD SLIDE ha Ha Ha after a couple hours. This keeps it at bay. I can't say I can go a whole 16 hours. But, I'm good for 9 to 5. I may have to use rice paper mid-day if its really hot(or, if the heat is up really high). But, during cooler months, I don't have to. Nor, do I have to worry because this keeps me from lookin' like you can "drink" my face =))). I also LOVE the way it tends to illuminate my face. Not in a glittery sorta way, but like it has some kinda built in highlighter maybe? That's just a plus in my book — 4 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Loved it before the formula changed :(
This was my HG primer for my oily skin. The texture was perffect, the consistency was thick enough to spread without feeling greasy and it kept my oil in check all day and after a club night full of dancing!! I purchased it earlier this year around April and I saw major imprvement in my old acne scars and hyperpigmentation. So just recently I went to purchasse another one in August and it was watery and just not the same, it also left a white cast on my (NC50) face...the MAC rep told me it was reformulated an my heart sank because it was my HG primer after a long search :( — 6 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

not so great
this product did not protect me fro the sun. i was using lightening products and i got serious dark circles around my eyes and burns. i had to switch to a regular sunscreen like aveeno which also doubled as a primer and is dirt cheap. it also gives me a glow. i also found it hard to use on a regular sunblock so i had to opt for the regular non-suncreen primer. i'm a mac and clinique fanatic. — 6 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

love it for the sun protection
I love that this is spf 50, which is kind of hard to find in a primer or moisturizer. I didn't see a difference in how well my makeup stayed on however. I also have to wear a heavy moisturizer underneath because it makes my skin very dry. Not sure if I'll buy this one again.... — 11 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Best one yet!
I tried all kinds of primers, from MARS, Smashbox, Stila, Hourglass, Too Faced etc. but I find myself always coming back to this one. Is amazing for all types of skin…I have a tendency of being oily around the T zone and this Primer keeps the shine in place. I love the fact that has a high SPF since the FL weather requires good protection all year around. Is expensive but worth it — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 4 people said helpful
