Review 1 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Love this product!
-05.09.13
Quick Take: evens out skintone, lightweight
I am 47 and have noticed the pores on my cheeks and around my nose are more prominent. I do not wear foundation...but pat this on my problem areas. Instant improvement without a dry cakey look

Great product

Quick Take: fast-absorbing, evens out texture, fills in fine lines, smooths skin, goes on smooth, contains sunscreen, long lasting, an absolute must have for me!, must have for under eyes
I have dark circles and fine lines under my eyes. As Ive gotten older the lines have increased. I used smashbox photo finish for many years, but now it just made the lines look deeper. So I switched to this product, and it does not settle in the lines, it fills them so my skin looks smoother after foundation. I only use this product under my eyes. I love this product, it works wonders for me, and makes my skin look young again! I like the thickness of the product, since it is the thickness that actually fills in the lines. I also love the Qusome delivery system and the mushroom extract (cutting edge of science on beauty!) I also love that it contains titanium dioxide, which is a wonderfully NATURAL sunscreen!

Quick Take: evens out skintone, lightweight, fast-absorbing
Works well, but needs to be in a larger tube or a jar.

Review 5 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Hard and Heavy
-04.04.13
Quick Take: disappointing
I bought a full size of this Primer to use it around my crows feet and mouth area's but all it did was make my face matte. I didn't like the hard consistency of it and I won't buy again. Its a shame because I really do like Smashbox but this product isn't for me.

Review 6 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
not my pick
-03.18.13
I tried this filler a few different ways: alone, with primer/foundation and moisturizer.....it just seemed to be like wax. It left a white flakey residue. I have normal even-toned skin. I returned it.

not your typical primer
-02.17.13

Review 9 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Great Primer!
-01.21.13
This primer is great for oily skin. I use it on my T zone and it really helps with shine and it helps foundation to go on smoothly. It isn't good for the area around your eyes though. It's too thick for the eye area.

This is a smash!

Quick Take: an absolute "must have" for me
This primer works beautifully and minimizes the fine lines around my mouth due to age and years of smoking. This is one of the products I cannot envision having, I always have a new tube in reserve.

Review 13 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Great Product when used right!!!
-12.10.12
Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
This is the best primer I've tried for concealing large pores and fine lines. When used right it can really make your skin look perfect. I've found it's best to apply a thin layer in special needs spots over your regular primer and it works like a charm! It seems to last a really long time too!

Review 14 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
I REALLY tried to make this work...
-11.20.12
I REALLY gave this a go.. I tried it alone(under/over makeup), I mixed with the Smashbox Primer (mixed a little, a bit more, a lot) and it just never sat right. It was sometimes cakey, sometimes left a residue, sometimes left my skin very dry. Just never worked.

Review 15 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Eye Bondo
-11.10.12
This product did fill in lines under my eye SOMEWHAT.... but for the price I expected more. Once it settles it does make it a little difficult to blend foundation on the undereye area. So you have to move quickly. Again, for the price I expected more. This went back to the store.

Review 16 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Couldn't wait to write a review!
-11.09.12
Quick Take: evens out skintone, fast-absorbing, miraculous
I bought this primer thinking, I already wear an all-over primer, I probably don't need this. But I love this now! I use a tiny bit on my forehead lines, put a dot on the occasional blemish, and dot some lightly under my eyes. I find that it visibly reduces the appearance of these things, even without foundation over it. I put it on the first time and actually thought, Wow, it's like they're not there. That was before I even put my foundation over it! Have not found any problems with it and I was actually surprised that other people had issues. I think it is perfect.

Review 17 for Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer
Great product!
-11.08.12
Quick Take: evens out skintone, lightweight, fast-absorbing
I was really impressed with this product, despite my best efforts at prevention I have some small lines starting to show across my forehead. I use this product just on those areas, in addition to another brand's primer (MUFE). This does a great job at hiding those lines and making me look flawless. LOVE!

Nice Product for Oily Skin
-10.15.12
This really does smooth out the skin and control oil. Unfortunately for me since I have normal skin it was a little too drying and I had to switch back to their regular formulation. I really like this better though!
