Agree with OK 'but didn't last long'

NO, it's not you 'it didn't last long'. I'm fiftish and it did the same to me. Did nada for pores.

O.kay but didn't last to me?

Maybe it's just me as I am 41 years old but still have extremely oily skin large pores I really needed a good primer because 3 hours after make up is on Im shining like I put baby oil on my face. Anyhow, this is actually the first primer I ever purchased and I was not totally happy with it. Within my normal 3 hours I was shiney on my forehead and nose Using this primer, toned down my oily face a...read more little bit however I thought it would work better and I really didn't notice a difference in how my make up went on pores were still noticable.

Best primer all around!

I have large pores on my face and this primer works to conceal them! Plus I have oily skin with a tendency to break out and this product is acneogenic- never causes acne. I am so sorry prescriptives will no longer be available after January 31. I have no idea where to begin to replace all the prescriptives products that I use!

Lovely product

I had also been using the Smashbox primer but never really liked the texture. My fav. sales gal at the Prescriptives coounter convinced to give this one a try, and I'm totally sold on the primer idea now....I often use this with just concealer under my eyes on on uneven spots and just without foundation, powders, etc......

Fabulous AND Flawless

When primers first became popular, I tried a few and wasn't impressed. My skin, which is generally blemish free, started breaking out,my skin seemed to get very dry during the course of the day causing my foundation to crack and peel, which was not the kind of image I was trying to portray. I also tend to have very sensitive skin, allergic to many products. One day,I was shopping in Bloomingdales ...read morewhen one of the kind make up artists from the Prescriptives counter lured me into her make up chair. The minute she put the primer on my face, it had a cool refreshing sensation that felt more like a moisturizer than anything else. When she applied the foundation, not only did it glide on and blend so easily but she only used a small amount. To my surprise, the coverage was complete, truly flawless. I left ecstatic but the true test was yet to come. How would it wear for an entire day? Upon arriving home after a busy day of running around, I was almost afraid to look in the mirror. But to my surprise, my foundation looked as perfect as it did when she first applied it. The price was surprisingly inexpensive as well. You really get a bang for your buck since only a small amount is needed. Thus, the tube goes a long way. This primer should be a staple in every woman's beauty regime, regardless of age. It might not be the fountain of youth, but it comes pretty close.

The best primer

Until I found this primer, I thought Smashbox had the best primer. This one beats the other's hands down. It goes on smooth with no residual color and makes the face feel velvety soft. Your foundation goes on smoothly and stays put all day long.
