    Love this primer

    Love this primer! I usually buy the mini size of this primer because I don’t use a lot of makeup. But it really goes a long way. I love how my complexion looks after I apply it and it helps my face powder to go on smoothly.

    WORKS AVERAGE - and in my opinion is over priced

    This is good, it’s silicone based and keeps matte foundations in place - but not radiant finish foundations. It’s also a little more expensive than its’ performance is worth so I only use it with my matte foundations. Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Face Primer is my go to primer for all foundation types.

    Works like a charm

    This primer really does fill in your pores and make the skin spear much smoother. Makeup applies beautifully over this primer and last quite well through the day. It does not slip off oily areas or bunch up on my skin like some similar products do. If you want to minimize the appearance of pores this is a great option.

    This is a good primer.

    This primer is good, it blurs the pores and helps the foundation stay in its place BUT I have an oily face and I find after a few hours my makeup starts moving around.

    One of my favorite primers for oily skin.

    I love this primer! I have oil prone skin and I have a hard time finding the right primer to keep my skin oil free through the day. A dime size amount is more than enough for your entire face. This primer does the job. Repeat buyer, will definitely buy again. I highly recommend to everyone, not just for those will oil prone skin. This primer is a must buy! Love Benefit.

    Better than most

    I have used all kinds of primers to try and hide and pores that are so large that I would do anything to fill them or attempt to hide them and this one comes closest to blurring them without making my skin oily
    The makeup sits well on it and the skin looks very smooth. I am grateful for this primer

    A holy grail primer in my kit.

    This is a holy grail primer for me. I use this on my chin, nose, and forehead and on pimples to prime those spots (I use a different primer on my cheeks and eyes). You have to let it set for a few minutes before application of other makeup. The only downsides is it can pill with certain foundations and tinted moisturizers, and the price (I HOARD SAMPLES).

    Not for oily girls

    This primer is great for smoothing out and filling in your pores, but you need to be careful with this stuff! This is a silicone based primer (which is why it gives that silk-like feeling) which is why it's so great at blurring your pores, but you need to make sure you wash your face really well after using it. It has a tenancy to sit in your pores and will stay there unless you do a through job scrubbing your face afterwards. As with all silicone based primers, it's not great on oily skin. The oils in your face will seep out and get trapped by the silicone - nothing gets out, and nothing gets in. It's a barrier for your skin and can be the cause of a breakout. If you use this make sure to give your face lots of breaks and do not use it every day! If you have oily skin, I would not recommend this.

    I’d but this product again!

    This primer is very effective when it comes to having that smooth and poreless skin for your foundation. The only catch is the price! Other than that i would recommend this to anyone looking for a handy full face primer!

    You can’t even tell it’s on your skin!

    This primer is soo light weight, it barely feels like I have makeup on when I use it. I rub in small dollops of the primer throughout the blemishes on my face and they’re gone! It blends into my skin somehow, and I love it(: Only downside is that it’s super pricey for the value sized bottle, I stick with the sample sized tube for a little over $15 cdn.
