Pretty good
-05.22.13
I do like this primer but I don't like the texture. It works well for me. I have oily skin and it controls the oil all day and doesn't clog my pores. I just don't like the way it feels when you first put it on but once it dries it feels fine. I have bought this primer about 4 times now and will continue its a great price and works well

Amazing Primer
-05.20.13
Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
Just as good, if not better than Smashbox primer. This stuff is amazing for the price. Glides on smooth and leaves a nice, matte finish. A little goes a long way. One or two small pumps is enough for the entire face. Doesn't make skin breakout. Will definitely be purchasing this from now on.

Love it!
-05.16.13
Quick Take: lightweight, fast-absorbing
The primer lets the makeup last for a really long time. I put it on in the morning before anything else and my makeup still looks nice when I leave work 9 hours later. I would have liked if it evened out my skin tone a bit, but it's so smooth that I don't mind. I was worried about it making my makeup caky looking, but it's so light and easy. And Affordable!

I was kind of a non believer in primer, but i re-appropriated some of my mom's sephora primer and was converted. I mix it in with my foundation when applying and it definitely adds staying power. Tried a couple more expensive brands and this is still me go-to.

This primer makes my foundation look super smooth and helps it last longer. When I apply this first, I can typically use about 1/3 less liquid foundation.

cleared up my skin, better than smashbox
-05.04.13
Quick Take: lightweight, evens out skintone, fast-absorbing, clarifies, helps makeup stay in place
I'd say this is better than the Smashbox Primer but not as good as the Makeup Forever one. However for the cost, I'm def. going to keep buying it. It evens out your skin tone, makes blushes, powders, etc go on very cleanly. My skin is oily but it keeps my makeup in place.
It's a little small though. The bottle is really nice and well-designed.

I've tried many primers over the years but ultimately stopped using one because of their high cost. This primer meets all my needs and is priced right.

When i first pumped it out of the bottle, the conssitency seemed a little thick, but once you begin applying, it goes on smoothly and easily and a little bit goes a pretty long way. Seems to help my makeup last!

I have to admit I am not someone who wears makeup everyday. Frankly, I find it to be a big pain in the butt to put makeup on. Well, after recieving this primer as a sample I am in love. For the first time I actually like to wear make up. It feels like your putting silk on your skin and it makes my foundation look like it was airbrushed on. Seriously, you NEED to get this. It has made this non-makeup mom into a makeup mom.

Deception
-04.28.13
Quick Take: a deception
I won't be purchasing this again.
After putting it on, my skin doesn't feel smoother. Doesn't make a difference for applying makeup... and doesn´t prolongs the wear of foundation, it make no difference at all.

I used to use hourglass primer..I loved it, but stopped using it because its so expensive! I've used this twice and I love it! It seems to work just as well as hourglass.. makes my skin softer and makeup slide on so easy..and it stays put throughout my 12 hr work day! And what a great price!

Great price and decent product
-04.21.13
This is value for money. It does what it claims to do. I particularly like that the make up seems to last a little longer than without a primer. For $15, if you don't already have a favorite primer, this one is worth a try. I would buy it again.
