    love it!

    love it! my skin has fine lines, enlarged pores, and comination/acne prone and this keeps everything at bay. My skin even looks smoothe when im driving and look in the mirror above my head, which is where I usually see all the flaws in my skin and makeup. Love it! — 4 years, 11 months ago

    Fantastic for oily or combination skin.

    My skin tends to be oily one day, and confused the next. But this prim goes on so smooth (it is so soft!) and really brings out the full potential of my make up. I tend to use mineral/powder foundations and it really makes it feel like I'm not wearing any make up at all. Also really brings out the true staying power of my foundation. — 4 years, 11 months ago

    Works & Doesn't Work

    I have very oily skin, enough to use ten blotting papers every three hours. This product works well for the first 3-4 hours that it's sitting on my face. However, more than that, it'll melt and leave my face more greasy than it usually is. It's also irritate my skin really bad. When I'm at work I tend to keep scratching my face where I apply this product. I wouldn't recommend this product to combo to oily skin. — 4 years, 8 months ago

    the best there is for acne-prone faces

    my one and only gripe about this product is the fact that, if you are in a rush and don't blend it in, it is actually counterproductive to your efforts to smooth your skin--it gets a little flakey. however, i received outright, unsolicited compliments about how flawless my skin looked when i used this pre-foundation. if you care for your skin and use this to fill in pores and uneven texture, this will be your silver bullet. i do not have serious acne erruptions most of the time, but most silicone-based products give me TERRIBLE breakouts. this worked wonderfully for me with no payback at the end of the day. — 4 years, 11 months ago

    Does the trick

    I like this water-based primer. Right now it's summer and I've been wearing it with my tinted moisturizer and it really helps to smooth out my pores and keep my makeup looking fresh and natural. It hasn't made me oily at all, and hasn't made me break out either. I recommend it if you can afford it... but as a prep it's still no match for good skin care and exfoliating. The price is a bit high. — 4 years, 12 months ago

    Excellent!

    This worked immediately, but I did have to reapply it once during the day. Excellent for preventing shine! — 5 years ago

    Love it!

    I love this stuff, it feels weightless, but still provides a great base for foundation. I definitely feel a difference in the application of my makeup when I use it. — 5 years ago

    Not too impressed

    I did not notice much of a difference regarding my foundation when I used this product. It feels nice on my skin, but don't believe that it enhances my foundation more than a regular mousturizer. It is quite pricey also, so I won't be purchasing it again. — 5 years ago
