Review 1 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
Not the best face primer, eye primer too colored
-04.07.13
Quick Take: travel size
I'm not impressed with the face primer. It's fine, but doesn't seem particularly brightening. I also found it to be inconvenient and annoying as you have to shake the tube every time you use it, or a clear liquid comes out instead of the mixed primer. I am glad that I tried it as now I know not to buy the full size.
The eye primer was a nice bonus though the color isn't quite right for me. It's very copper which meant it wasn't a primer on my fair skin but rather a copper eye shadow. I use it on occasion but would have preferred a lighter shade.

Review 2 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
Great set
-03.17.13
Quick Take: good value, travel size
This primer set is well worth trying. The face primer is so soft and should work for any skin tone. There's a small amount of shimmer, not too much though. I like the fact there are antioxidants in it. The eye primer works great! I only dropped one star because there's the issue that the eye primer is definitely a warm tone. I thought it was so pretty (kind of a coppery shimmer). It's sheer and blends well and does the job right- no creasing or fading. Beautiful, but I wouldn't use it with certain cooler colors. Overall, I am very happy I got this and definitely plan on buying more.

Pretty Good
-01.26.13
I bought this one sale for $10 and I think I got my money's worth. The face primer does it's share of work, but I don't think it REALLY primes my face very well...it's alright. The eye primer is good, but the package is SUPER TINY. A little bit goes a long way though.

Review 6 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
It's good for a trial size
-01.19.13
Quick Take: good value, travel size
I like this product but I haven't noticed any brightening of my skin. I have used the regular primer and it works just the same, as far as I can see. But a primer is a must have with BM makeup. Definitely keeps your make up set and smooth.

Review 7 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
good value
-01.11.13
Worth the price for $10. The complexion primer goes on very smoothly and evens out my skintone well. It feels a bit greasy but hasn't caused any breakouts (I'm also diligent in removing makeup and cleansing my face thoroughly in the morning and night). The eyelid primer is a bit more pink and sparkly than I thought it would be, but is suitable on its own if I'm running late. The tube is very small, though.

Review 9 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
average
-01.01.13
Quick Take: travel size
overall, you can't beat the deal to try both products...but i found the face primer to seem a bit greasy at first and the tint separates a bit from the base, so you have to shake it a lot. i would buy it without the tint.

Review 10 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
-12.12.12
A little goes a long way. Small size but you can't beat the price. The products are slightly tinted. The face primer has a beige tone, while the eyelid primer has a pink tint with a sheen to it, but it blends well with lighter eyeshadow. Face seems a little oily before applying foundation or powder.

Review 11 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
Really does what it says
-12.05.12
It's skin brightening & wonderful. I wear it under my foundation & I'm very pleased. The eye brightening is perfect on its own sometimes I wear it with some eye liner and i'm good to go. It's also a great value

Review 12 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
not amazed or pleased...
-12.02.12
Quick Take: barely any product
First of all the eye primer is a dark, sparkly brown color....doesn't look too great on my pale skin. I feel like it didn't do much for me at all because it was so dark and sparkly there was no need for eye shadow. Then the face primer is a yellow/orange color...not impressed. Didn't feel like it did anything for my face compared to the original primer B.E. has. And also the mini primers barely have any product in them...had to squeeze them so hard it was like I had been using them for at least a month. Not impressed at all. Will not be getting sample sizes from Sephora anymore.

Review 13 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
SPARKLE eye primer
-11.30.12
If I had known the eye primer was SPARKLY, I would not have purchased. Total waste of money. There is a big difference between luminous and sparkle filled. If you're over 16, don't bother with this.

Really like
-09.21.12
I got this on sale and I actually really like it. I was afraid from some reviews but mine is not glittery or anything it goes on smooth and lasts. I like the eye primer a lot, a small amount goes a long way!

Review 15 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
definitely a must in your BE wardrobe!
-09.07.12
I always used the plain, no color primers until this kit. Goes on great, lasts all day and really makes a difference in my makeup always looking fresh. Try the different shades...they're all too much fun! I have since I bought these two and love them all!

Review 18 for Mini Prime Time Face & Eye Brightening Duo
-08.11.12
Quick Take: ok nothing special
I really like the eye primer it is shimmery and helps my eye shadow stay on for hours. The face primer has a tendency to separate and feels a little greasy going on. It doesn't seem to make my face shiny though and it doesn't break me out. I still don't really see a need for a primer with my bare minerals, so I probably won't buy it again.
