    Good but a bit drying (?)

    I tried this product because I have oily/acne prone skin. The finish it gave my skin was FLAWLESS! My makeup went on smoothly and it seemed to last a long time. I did notice however that It didn't help much with shine...by the end of the work day I was already 'shining through' and another con I noticed was that after a while it felt as if it was drying my skin too much so I stopped using it and now use Rimmel London tinted primer.

    smashbox cosmetics are the BEST!

    Out of all the primers i have tried Smashbox Primer is the best. It is so silky and goes on so easily. I highly recommend this product. it doesn't leave a greasy or heavy feeling, great for all skin types.

    Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer light

    As a make up artist it really helps with the photos. So I thought, why not wear it as everyday for myself. It seems to let all my glamour go on smoother or at least it looks all put together when I am done.

    Not worth it

    The regular primer from Smashbox is incredible, the light one on the other hand does not leave your skin with a smooth consistency and foundation just clumps.

    Liked the original better

    I had already tried the original version and really loved it but, I wanted to try this one based on the fact that I have oily skin. I did not like it as much as the original. I felt like it did nothing for me. It felt like putting water on my face and it did not hold my makeup at all. I use the original formula everyday with Cosmedicine Oil Control Lotion and I don't have to reapply my powder every 5 mintues. It's great!

    LOVE IT, WILL NOT GIVE UP ON THIS EVER!

    As a 22-year-old woman with Oily, Acne prone skin and living in the swealtring heat of Arizona, primer is a MUST! I used to use the original smasbox primer and found it sufficiant, howver, when the Primer Light came into my life I jumped for joy. This works AMAZINGLY well as a primer. I love it, I have never "needed" a product more than this. It keeps my pores to a minimum and helps what...read moreever I use glide onto my skin. I even use it as an eyeshadow primer when I don't have any. Also, if you buy this from Sephora, buy it in the little tubes! If you buy two of the little ones, its the equivalent of buying, more of the regular size with less cost AND you can get the last bits of primer out easier with the tube than the pump. Just a hint... Good luck!

    Smashbox Photo Primer Light

    Absolutely love it. I am 51 with extremely dry skin, and my foundation goes on so smoothly after the primer.

    Not worth the money

    Did not help to keep my makeup on or help fill in fine lines. I do not have oily skin or excessive lines either.

    fantastic for oily skin

    There is such a huge difference between this primer and Smashbox's original Photo Finish. The original always felt like it made my oily/combo skin feel worse than before I washed it! This feels much more like a moisturizer than a primer, but it works as well if not better than the best primers out there!
