    This is an okay primer. It's really smooth and satiny like a primer should be. I think there's a hint of shimmer/sheen/gleam on it. It doesn't have any skin care properties, it just acts as base. It does a good job at prepping the face. Makes it nice and smooth. You do have to wait or it to dry for about 2-4 minutes before using so that it doesn't ball up your foundation. I found that it works the best with creamy/liquid foundation. I'm not that oily so i can't comment on that. But i won't really buy this to use as a staple. The price is a bit steep for a small bottle. I also use mineral foundation and it doesn't work as well. But if you're looking for a satiny smooth base for apply liquids and cream foundation, this is a good candidate.

    I love this. It makes my face feel like satin whenever I put it on, and it makes my foundation pop and apply evenly. I love putting it on after a generous dose of Studio Moisture Fix Moisturizer. Make sure to use a foundation brush to apply it, as you will save more product (it is pricey), and your foundation will apply more evenly. Love this.

    This primer works great feels amazing but at almost 20.00 for 1oz I honestly can say it's not worth it I have found many foundation primers do not work on me but I have found another primer at 9.99 that is amazing and at half the price I would only buy mac prep and prime if I couldn't find my other primer..
