The Green One REALLY Cancels The Redness!
I've had this about a year and tried it initially but hated it. I was playing around with what was in my makeup bag and I came back to it a few days ago. What was I thinking to not love this stuff?! My blotchy red, flushed rosacea-prone cheeks were smoothed out, even-toned and matte. The light, liquid-y formula took less than a full pump to blend over and cover my cheeks, around my nose, my chin a...read morend forehead. I used my fingers to blend it in well and the redness just disappeared. My skin was left smooth, dry, silky and with NO REDNESS. And stayed gone for hours with my mineral foundation and concealer on my larger spots. So glad I gave it a second chance! The only reason I gave it 9 stars was because it also claims to be a "highlighter", which means some shimmer. Ugh! If I'm trying to correct something, why the heck would I want sparkles all over it? But this ABSOLUTELY works and LASTS ALL DAY. My new must-have product. "Note: I use the green one, not sure about the other ones.*This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Terrible and Ineffective
I can only speak to the green version of this primer, but I can safely say it did not work for me at all. It was very expensive for a drugstore primer, between $15 and $20. I had high expectations that were not met at all. For one thing, the texture is weird: when you squirt it out and apply, it is thin, greasy, and sheer; then, as you blend it in and apply foundation/concealer over it, it turns g...read moreunky and balls up. It separated around my nose where I have the worst redness, turned into little balls and flakes on my cheeks, and it clung to dry patches and acne on my nose, chin, and forehead. The result of that was green crusty lumps around the acne I was trying to cover up in the first place. I tried using my fingers, a sponge, and different brushes and nothing could make it apply nicely. I tried with other primers and moisturizers underneath, different concealers and foundations on top, and nothing would make it look smooth or help with my redness. I can't use it and it was a terrible waste of my money.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I actually like it.
There've been a lot of bad reviews for this product. I bought the one in green for my rosacea-red cheeks. I also have very dry skin and find that the liquidy consistency of this blends better than the thicker color corrected primer/concealers out there and overall gives a more natural finish. I definitely like this product and would even buy it again. You just have to have the right skin texture to like this stuff.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Pretty Good
I am pretty found of this. I have it in green and it does a pretty good job at covering minor redness with just one pump. If you have a lot of redness and plan to wear it under makeup, id go for one and a half to two pumps. it will make your face unnaturally green, but your foundation should even it out.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Not as good as expected
I bought this in green to tone down the redness on my checks and around my nose. It does a nice job brightening my complexion and it slightly tones down the redness without turning my face green. However, this product makes my face very greasy by midday. I generally have dry skin so it was a total shock when I saw how oily my skin had gotten by lunchtime. Nothing else in my regime has changed so i...read moret is definitely this product! I'll keep using it until it runs out because it's not that big of a deal to have to blot my face once in the afternoon but I will not be buying this again. Clinique offers a similar primer which I was using prior to this, and although it is slightly more expensive ($18) it I never made my skin oily and it also offers SPF.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Love the brightening primer in light
I love these primers for my skin.....I used the light brightening primer (be careful a little goes a long way) and I absolutely love them. They are light and airy feeling and do not feel like a primer at all. They magically create a beautiful luxurious canvas for any makeup you may apply. Also, they look amazing alone. Definitely a winner once again from L'Oreal.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 7 people said helpful

hmmmmmmm
So i got the redness reducing primer for my sisters wedding because she has acne and i have blotchy red viens that peer out of my skin under my cheeks (worst place ever) so I used this and it does do somewhat of what it claims it does subdue redness on acne but not much for blotchy skin which is what i was really hoping it would do. I would recommend this for people with alot of acne or to reduce ...read morethe redness of a zit before putting concealer on and you need to put concealer on or else the areas around the redness will look slightly green unless your putting foundation on top.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 6 people said helpful

Surprisingly Does What It Claims!
I had a huge breakout right before thanksgiving day. I had been wanting to buy a redness corrector for sometime now but never got around to. Nothing I did really helped the breakout so at the last minute I remembered this product and went right to my nearest Walgreens to buy it. I have to admit, though nothing was really going to help the break out this most definitely helped ease the redness with...read more the break out and all over my face. I am actually extremely impressed. Also, the next day after I used it my skin had a nice glow to it , my boyfriend definitely took notice and complimented. Over all I am very happy. I strongly recommend this over the more expensive stuff.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 5 people said helpful
