Color correcting properties....

This primer has a light pinkish lavender color that helps brighten. It creates a smooth silky canvas on my face but I don't like how this dries out every time I try to pump. It also helps my oily skin to look matte before I apply my foundation on.

Love it

Creates a perfect base for foundation to go on. It makes my skin look flawless. The only bad thing about this is that the product dries up where it is pumped out but that isn't a huge problem. It's just annoying. It goes on very smooth and soft. Smells nice and doesn't have an artificial smell to it.

Good.

This fragrance-free sheer tinted primer has a silky-cream texture that blends on beautifully to even out skin tone and temporarily fill in pores. The satiny-smooth matte finish controls excess shine, but the effect won’t last for hours and hours. The formula allows for foundation to be applied smoothly over it or it can be worn alone. The only potential negative is that Revlon didn’t add more ...read moreantioxidants and other skin-beneficial ingredients to make this a primer and a skin-care product in one.

Love!!!

This was the first primer that I ever tried. Since then I have tried several other primers, but I always end up going back to this one. My skin is very oily, and this primer makes my skin look so matte. It also completely evens out my skin tone and makes it feel oh so soft! Can't get enough and will continue to buy this!

Love Revlon photoready

This is a reformulated version. The first time I tried this product I wasn't all that impressed. But I seen thattayla from YouTube loving it so I checked it out at the store and noticed it was deeper in color now. So I thought it and have loved it sense. I usually go in with a hydrating primer first, and then apply this as needed to poreblemed areas. One of the best drug store, if not THE best drug store primer

my first primer

so maybe i don't know what i should be looking for, but i like this. the pump is really hygienic, there's a good amount of product, it's not expensive, and it feels really smooth and nice going on. it blurs pores better than the maybelline babyskin product, and all my foundations seem to go on smoothly. also, it does not irritate my skin (but not that much does...the way some folks review so spe...read morecifically on each product bothering their skin when they are wearing so many at once, it makes me seem like i have no idea what irritates my skin!)

Exceptional

Definitely one of the better primers at the drugstore.. I find that my skin looks and feels great for around 4 hours after applying, but around the 5 hour mark i can see my makeup(contour, highlight foundation) starting to fade.. It does smooth out the face nicely though! And it hasn't broken me out yet and I have been using it for quite sometime now! P.S. I have combo/dry skin, not quite sure how this would work on my ladies with oily skin

Horrible

I absolutely hate this primer it does nothing a primer should and by the end of the day my face is blotchy and oily I would rather use no primer than this product I should have stuck with the awesome hard candy primer I normally use.

Does Its Job

I've read on other beauty sites that this is the best drugstore primer, and I definitely agree! It makes your skin feel super smooth and soft, but not damp. It blurs your pores nicely, requires only a tiny amount, and has no gross smell. I love it!

Great Primer

I have tried many primers, some that worked and some that didn't, and once I found this one, I was impressed. I have dry skin but it absorbs quickly and it does not leave flaking even if you layer it over lotions and slather make-up on top of it. Instantly smooths my skin; fills in fine lines. Sometimes I even just wear this alone and no make-up. Like another reviewer said, it will clog up a little on the pump, but it's a minor inconvenience. For the price, this stuff is great.
