Perfect for those dry flaky parts!

I had received this product complimentary from ChickAdvisor in exchange for a review of my experience. I had never used a primer like this before and so went in a little skeptical of its effectiveness, but being a big fan of NYX products was nevertheless excited.

I used a little scoop to apply the primer on my face and waited for it to feel "tacky" similar to my other primers, but it had a more "soaked in" and moisturizing effect on my skin. I followed it with the skin tint I had also received from ChickAdvisor.

Fast forward to my day, it was hot, went on the public transit for an hour, ran around campus, went to a lab, wore my glasses all day and lab goggles and when I finally came home I was blown away by the fact that my makeup was still holding up! Especially my biggest problem spots like my dry skin on my nostrils and how my makeup always lifts on the bridge of my nose.

Amazing Jelly!

When I first received this item I thought I would hate it since usually primers do not come in a jelly form! It is actually amazing! I think because it is jelly it helps your makeup stick to it and last better!

Décevant

Je suis une habituée des primers que ce soit de marques de pharmacies ou plus dispendieuses et celui-ci n’est vraiment pas à la hauteur de ce qui se trouve déjà sur le marché.
Premièrement, il n’offre pas l’effet tant désiré des primers. Deuxièmement, il est collant et long à pénétrer la peau, même en très petite quantité.
Le prix est excessivement cher pour un produit de pharmacie aussi peu performant. La seule chose que j’ai aimé, c’est la texture jelly.

Hydrating primer, lightweight and non-sticky

NYX professional Bare With Me Hydrating Jelly Primer is such a multi-purpose product. It makes my skin look bouncy and minimizes the appearance of the pores. I love the dewy effect it leaves after I put on a bb cream or a foundation. It comes in a decent-sized tub package that will last for months. It does help in blending the makeup seamlessly, as it claims. Overall, I love the jelly primer. It is hydrating, highly blendable, seamless and pore minimizing. It is also non-sticky and super lightweight. I have been using it for over two weeks and I am obsessed with it.
It is infused with cucumber and aloe which also help soothe the skin.

INCREDIBLE STUFF!

I was chosen as one of the lucky candidates to test and review the NYX Hydrating Jelly Primer for absolutely free #freeproduct ! I was surprised to see that the jelly itself was transparent almost like a goo but when applied to my face it smoothed out my skin and felt as though a lightweight, undetectable layer was smoothed over my skin and it felt lovely and wasn’t sticky or greasy! I’m extremely happy that I was chosen to test out this product! Thank you #chickadvisor and a #NYX for partnering up! This product is incredible and I definitely recommend it! :)

Great texture and hydration

I don't usually bother with a primer because as someone with very oily skin, I rarely need the extra moisturizing and mattifying or long-wear primers always seem cakey underneath other products. This one is light enough to feel comfortable, and I did feel like it helped the makeup last a little longer. The gel texture is pretty neat and the scent isn't overwhelming. I really hate the container it comes in, it feels very unsanitary to stick your fingers repeatedly into something that goes on your face. I would've preferred a pump bottle or at least have a little scoop provided, especially considering this product costs over $20, which I think is a little expensive for a drug store brand.

Interesting Texture

I don't usually use primers but I'm pleasantly surprised by how well this one works. Since I have oily skin and the primer is hydrating, I skipped my usual face cream and used this product instead. I found after using it a couple days in a row it made my skin breakout as I'm guessing it didn't let my skin breathe enough. The texture was not what I expected but I really liked it actually. Because its its jelly you only need a very small amount to cover your entire face.

Great basic primer

This texture of this primer definitely threw me off at first as it is a jelly. However, once you put it on, it is very easy to apply and goes onto the skin quite nicely. I love that it absorbs right away and does not make the skin greasy or oily at all so you can apply makeup right away. For the price, this product is really great value, especially since you do not need a lot of it. It is also an unscented product, which is great for anyone with skin sensitivities.

Great texture!

I normally skip primer because I dont feel like it helps anything with my makeup application or longevity but I looove the thicker jelly texture of this one! All the primers I've ever tried were creams or liquids so this one really stands out. A little goes a long way too so I Think this jar is going to last me a while. I also like how lightweight it is. I have oily skin but this doesn't feel heavy at all :) *i recieved this for free to review but all opinions are my own!*

Sticky

When i first opened the jar, i saw the jelly and thought: oh great! This is going to create clumps on my face and roll under my fingers as i spread it on my face.
But nope, it didn’t do any of that. It actually spread quite nicely all over my face and neck and it didn’t take too much either.
I have fine lines and my pores aren’t that big. The gel filed in my pores and minimized them around the nose area, but didn’t do much about my fine lines. You could still see them even after applying the foundation. So don’t expect it to make your fine lines disappear.
The gel becomes sticky on your face which can feel annoying at the beginning but it’s good if you want your foundation to stick to it better, which did in my case. And my foundation lasted all afternoon.
