    Decent primer that gets the job done

    Good if you know what youre getting. I bought this product on a whim when I ran out of my then current one. What I expected of it was to make my face smooth and ready for makeup and this product delivered. I did notice that it would ball up is used in combination with other primers/moisturizers. Wasn't particular phenomenon or hg but it definitely works and is accessible. The downside is the packaging is deceiving. The product doesn't contain the standard 1fl oz and what looks like the product through the outer packaging is actually the airless pump the product is housed in.

    Fragrance is a turn off.

    This might have been a good product but the fragrance is a big turn off for me. The price is definitely right at around $5 and coverage was pretty good. Can't bring myself to use it again because the smell is a turn off.

    ELF can do better!

    I found myself disappointed in the EF primers. They worked a bit to hide pores and blur the skin, but not enough for my taste. It also pills under some foundation, which is so annoying. Overall, I think Rimmel makes a better primer for about the same price.

    I remember buying this product on a whim. The price was great and Elf is one of those brands that most people know of so I thought why not try it out! But I was not happy with the results at all. I used the same amount as I normally would have with my other primers but this one was terrible. It left an awful feeling on my hands and my foundation just slid everywhere when applying it. It came in a small pump but the pump hardly worked. I had to pump so many times to get a full face of primer! Would not recommend. I have used other drugstore primers that work much much better unfortunately.

    I was looking for an everyday primer because using Benefits Porefessional everyday will cost me my arm and leg and my first born which I don't have yet!!

    Anyway, I think this primer is not for people with oily skin or even combination oily. It's suppose to reduce appearance of pores and fine lines which it didn't really do for me. It cost me $7. Can't complain though. I was thinking if I should get this or the Maybelline baby skin Pore eraser. Obviously, I bought this one because when I looked at the ingredients, It has Tea Tree oil and Vitamin A. I thought, okay it might keep some pimples at bay. I didn't breakout so it's all good. my skin felt smooth though but it felt a bit oily.

    I probably won't buy this again.

    On their site this product is supposed to "Reduces the appearance of enlarged pores, fine lines, and shine for a gorgeous airbrushed look." I'd have to disagree.
    It didn't do anything to reduce the look of my pores, and it left my face feeling greasy and oily. I found the only way I could use it was to put it on, wait for it to dry, then use blotting papers before putting on my makeup, otherwise it was just too greasy.
