Lovely hydrating primer

I really liked this primer! It applied easily and I was able to spread it with just my finger tips no problem. It feels very slippy and silicone like, which really did smooth out the surface of my skin and blur my pores. It has a light almost lemony skincare like scent that went away after application. It did make my skin feel hydrated throughout the day, and my make up did settle nice on top. It didn't enhance any of my textures or fine lines, and even wearing it alone it was nice. Very light weight, but I don't think it does well for an all day 12+ hr wear. Packaging is nice, in an aluminum tube with a plastic cap. I did find that the product dried and would flake around the opening of the top, which didn't affect my application, I just removed the little bits first. I'm a bit oily and had to set with powder afterwards still.

Silky smooth

I love this primer! It is so light and silky but without a oily feeling that primers like this usually leave on your skin. It is really lightweight and feels like you're not wearing anything at all. Instead of it being a lotion consistency like most primers have, it's actually more of a very light jelly texture. It went on smooth and dried invisible. The scent is pretty strong when you first apply it but it fades quite quickly. It is a botanical smell. My makeup went on smoothly over this primer and didn't budge. I use a Dewey formula so it usually fades pretty quickly but it had a decent longevity with this primer! It definitely kept the youthful bouncy skin look minus any oily residue.

Amazing at Pore Minimizing and Mattifying the Skin

A 94% naturally formulated, silicone-free primer that's fueled by adaptogens to help restore balance back into your skin and protect it from environmental stressors. Leaves skin hydrated and gives a good solid base for makeup controlling oils, minimizing pores and fine lines, and mattifying the skin.

Housed in a metal squeeze tube, this opaque clear coloured, lightweight gel resembles the look and texture of an ointment but is not sticky or greasy. All that's needed is a pea-sized amount and once on contact with the skin, it starts to melt, absorbing quickly onto the skin. The texture feels like a slippery, watery ointment that glides on easily leaving a skin-like feel that's soft and smooth. The scent is an uplifting and herbal, and feels cooling on the skin.

With key ingredients like pre-biotic peptides to Reishi Mushroom and Ashwagandha, together these help to strengthen and protect the skin barrier. Helps skin to also retain its moisture shielding it from the elements.

Can be used alone and/ or underneath makeup. Use SPF or moisturizer before primer.

MY THOUGHTS:
I'm totally in love with this primer and have tried nothing like this before. I absolutely love the blurring effect this product has on my pores. When worn alone, they definitely minimize them. It also helps control the oil I have on my T-zone that I don't need to use blotting paper halfway through the day. I love how it keeps my makeup looking fresh all day long. My skin feels soft, matte, and smooth like a blurred filter effect on the skin.

Thank you @thisisbutterly and @grownalchemist for gifting me this free product. A total game-changer and must-have product!!

Another amazing product from Grown Alchemist!

I received this Skin Defense Primer from Grown Alchemist in exchange my honest opinion. The container is a 50 ML aluminum tube, a good size to carry around or to put in the purse. When I first squeezed out the product l, it’s like silicone primer of the colour and texture, BUT once I applied it on my skin, OMG! This is when the magic happened and differentiates from the other silicone based primer. It has the cooling sensation that helps to reduce redness on some of the sensitive areas around my cheeks, my pores became invisible and made the foundation looked flawless for the entire 7 hours when I was out. My nose and forehead were less oily and the foundation stayed put after I used this primer. My skin felt hydrated and comfortable. The herbal scent is very light and pleasant. I would recommend this primer to someone who has combination with sensitive skin or some redness like me, will definitely repurchase the full size!

Blurring primer

I received this primer for free from Butterly for testing and review purposes. Upon first review, I liked this primer right away. It’s a lightweight formula that feels like nothing on your skin. I have really dry skin, and it was was not drying and my skin felt good after over 14 hours. It blends in perfectly and completely, not leaving any white cast. It left my skin very smooth and didn’t pill under my makeup. It had a blurring effect on my makeup, and surprisingly my makeup did last longer than other brands. I also liked the smell… it was botanical and refreshing.
