Pretty awesome

I got a sample of this product the other day and I have had it for a while, and I finally decided to try it. I do not usually wear primer before applying makeup or foundation, only lotion, but I have to say this one is pretty awesome. The tint is pretty neutral in color and the texture of the makeup is awesome and glides easily over the face for application. I love how well it illuminates the face...read more. It does not feel oily or greasy on the face and absorbs quickly. It has no scent. I would recommend using as a highlighter as well because it did a great job highlighting my cheekbones, nose, forehead and diminishing the dark circles under my eyes. I also noticed that my foundation seemed to last longer. Excellent primer! I would definitely buy this product once my sample is over and would recommend highly.

Okay

This primer is a little expensive. It is lightly moisturizing, did not irritate my sensitive skin and blends easily. This primer is tinted, but there was not enough coverage to even out my skin. It behaves well under both liquid and powder foundation. It leaves a shiny finish which brightened my face, but did nothing in terms of smoothing my pores. It did not cause acne. I personally prefer...read more the results of Olay's fragrance free serums to this product, but would still use up this product.

My skin is happy

I love this primer! I travel a bit and place this on my face right before I hop on the plane to keep my skin hydrated. I can admit, using this primer, I feel as if I am not wearing a primer on my face. This product is silicone free and is filled with vitamins. I have sensitive skin and knows that my skin is happy because I have not had any break outs using this. I love the glow that this primer gives. If you don't like the glow, simply mattify the glow using a Translucent Powder.

Love Pixi but not sure about the colored primer

I own quite a few of Pixi's products because I love their makeup. In fact they make my favorite bronzer and I wasn't a fan of bronzers before trying theirs. I own several face primers which are all colorless, so when I saw that the Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer was colored I was a bit worried. I still tried it out anyway because I always try out any new products I am given. Going on my face it did...read moren't feel as smooth as my other primers and gave my skin a glowing look to it almost like I had applied a highlighter all over my face. I didn't like the way my makeup went on over this primer, so I decided to get creative. I cleaned my face off and used my regular primer and used the Pixi primer as a base along my cheeks to make my highlighter stand out more next to my bright pink blush. My experiment was a success and looked fantastic! I am very happy with the way I decided to start using this primer. I even applied some where I apply my Pixi bronzer down towards my jawline but blended into my blush to make my cheekbones stand out more. I don't need much bronzer or the Pixi primer. A little bit goes a long way!

Full of Pixie Dust

I am in my 40's with oily skin. This Pixie Primer has a lot of shimmer in it and it has a light color. I definitely would not wear it alone as suggested on the packaging because it has too much shimmer. I wore it under my foundation and my face looked good. The shimmer was mostly hidden under my foundation. My face did not break out and this primer did not make my face become oily. My skin fe...read morelt good and my face looked good with this primer on under my foundation. So, overall I recommend this primer, but only if worn under your foundation.

GREAT!

This primer is so excellent, no clogged feeling or silicone base feeling at all, works wonders alone or under makeup. Excellent and worth the money, goes a long, long way.

A little spendy, but worth it

I was looking to try something different and looking for a primer and this was both. I typically don't spend a lot on makeup but this was worth it. My nose is a bit oily so I don't apply it there because it is shimmery, but the rest of my face loves it!
