Laura Mercier Foundation Primer
Editor's Rating & Review
This pricey, fragrant primer promises to smooth all skin types and hold foundation all day. If you have normal or dry skin, the heavy white cream takes a while to sink in before you can lay your foundation, and it might be too much for oily skin. The oil-free formula is a major plus (the directions say it can go on without moisturizer). Still, if it <i>really</i> wanted to protect the skin, it should boast some level of sunscreen.

Try Oil-Free
luckybetty (880 reviews)
Since I am satisfied with Laura Mercier Foundation Oil Free Primer, I bought their regular version for my mom who has dry skin. To compare the two products, I tried this a few times. The staying power of my foundation (worked for both liquid and powder) is definitely prolonged. But there is a certain difference in the consistency. This primer feels heavier and stickier. My mom also thinks that it is a bit sticky. So if you have oily skin, try their Oil Free primer. — 2 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Got Horrible Reaction!!!!
SubCulture (228 reviews)
I was looking for a primer & decided on this so I went to test it out at Sephora. I'm used to creamy thicker primers unlike this which is very thin & light like a light whipped lotion or serum. I feel that lighter products should be applied on the face first so I wasn't sure if this will work over a lotion sunblock. I tested this on my hand in several areas & had some redness there as I wiped them off to test out other products. Well, I had a blob of this primer on the center of the back of my left hand that I was using with different sunblocks & foundation. After a while the back of my left hand had a burning sensation, became very itchy & as I washed my hands with soap the entire back of my hand was bright red & extremely itchy. After several minutes & several more washings the redness disappeared. I'm just glad I did not test this on my face. Maybe the tester was contaminated but I will not re-consider this. — 2 years, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
