Love the beads

Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing, it works to hold your make up, creates a smooth surface
This is by far the best primer I have ever used and that is comparing it to Guerlain's other ones.

Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
This was perfect for my sensitive skins that doesn't like anything I ever put on it! The product didn't last me very long though. I used one pump a day and it only lasted about a month and a half - Only reason I gave it a 4 out of 5 :)

Quick Take: evens out skintone, lightweight, fast-absorbing
I purchased my first bottle back in December 2012.
I do love the product, it goes on smooth and during the summer months or when you are tanned, you could easily use this as foundation as well.
It has a lovely fragrance and a little goes a long way. I have just purchased my second bottle, and will continue to purchase as this line is really good.

Just say No!

I LOVE Meteorites powder, brushes and even the perfume so I appreciate the smell of this "primer," but I'm not noticing any benefits of using this product. If you already have flawless skin and just want to slap something deliciously decadent ($$$) on your face for a little bit of glow without applying any other makeup this is the primer for you.

Simply perfect
-04.28.13
Quick Take: lightweight
I have an almost perfect skin, so I don't need to apply any foundation or even a compact, but sometimes I need to wear something for special occasions, I was looking for TOO long till finally I found this AMAZING which they call it primer, but for me it's more than enough, it gives you a nice smooth feelings on your skin with a little lightening which gives radiant to your face, and by the way I have a very sensitive skin but even with little scent this primer has it was very delicate on my skin.
Please Guerlain do not stop making this amazing primer.

Looks pretty!
-04.23.13
What can I say? It looks really cool on my vanity. Smells nice to, as does all makeup from Guerlain. Does it work as a primer? I can't tell a difference with or without. Maybe it gives the skin a glow if you don't put makeup on top, but isn't that the point of a primer????

Not impressed~~
-04.19.13
Quick Take: lightweight
I was anxious to try this perfecting primer. I have pretty good skin and just wanted a nice primer to prep my skin and brighten it. I applied it and then put on my Guerlain foundation -- nothing! I honestly could not tell any difference and I only used a small amount of foundation as I prefer light coverage. Tried it again the next day, using Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer -- same results. I do not have a Guerlain counter in my area, so I called a store in a nearby city and spoke with a Guerlain counter manager. She was most helpful and told me that this product is recommended for younger skin, and also for Asian skin tones. She said it provides only slight illumination and isn't hydrating. She suggested that I try the Guerlain L'Or primer, which I may do. I think Guerlain is a great line, but this product was disappointing. I am happy that others have had better results!

Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
I was a little disappointed that the Meteorites left a shimmer finish on my skin and you could totally see it under a light. It did't look good on me since i'm a guy and i want a very natural looking makeup so that's why i like the Guerlain L'Or better. but if you're a girl it should look amazing on you go for it !

I have had samples or purchased almost 50 percent of the primers available at Sephora. This is one of my favorites. I have large pores and rosacea and just recently finished chemo and radiation for cancer. My skin has special needs. I have been impressed with this primer with both powder and liquid foundation. The price is not that bad considering the size of the bottle. You get what you pay for. Will buy again.

Amazing product
-01.13.13
Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
I wear this primer every day. It is lightweight, fast drying and has a creates a glow. It has a hint of shimmer in direct sunlight, but not like an obnoxious glitter. It does not provide coverage on it's own, but it does give your skin a glowing effect. I have pretty good skin, so I wear it on it's own a lot of I pair it with the Hourglass TM if I feel like I need some coverage. On it's own, it's great with a dusting of the Meteorites powder. Big price, but absolutely worth. I love the light scent and the way it makes my skin glow!

I've recently discovered that despite my best efforts- I cannot stop the passage of time- anywhere-including my face! I just turned 45 and in the past year my skin has for the first time decided to play tricks on me- it's been a bit dull and dry and there are some days when I can't seem to find a single drop of dew- Well, this product has solved that problem once and for all. It's light, refreshing and leaves my skin looking luminous and flawless. It's a perfect canvas for foundation or, if you choose to dare to go bare. I'm not a big make-up user and this magical elixir allows me to use as much or as little make-up as I like. It's my new addiction....Who says you have to be dull or dry at 45? Not Guerlain!

Perfect glow
-12.08.12
I've tried many primers, they usually flake and look dry later on, not this one! The first day I used it I got tons of compliments- wondering if I had a facial peel or seen a dermatologist!! It gives you that glow without being shimmery. Perfect for combination skin. It's worth the hefty price tag. It could replace foundation if you have clear skin maybe with a bit of tinted moisturizer.

BIG disappointment in my opinion, didn't see any light diffused pearls on my face, just a bit of a greasy mess and it did not help to keep my make-up on longer.
A lot of hype surrounds this 'cult' product, but I can't see why. I bought it a few months ago, wore it throughout the Summer and it really is no better than a drugstore primer, certainly not up to the great Guerlain name. Smells nice, like parma-violets but that's about it.
