    I know this is one of the most beloved primers and all, but I'm not that into it.

    It has a really slick, silicone feeling to it that makes me feel like I'm wearing a really soft mask on my skin. But hey, if you have any weird, uneven texture to your skin like crevices from acne, this is fabulous for filling those in and really does make makeup last longer.

    This is the only primer i use!
    I was new to the primer world when i bought this one. It doesn't come cheap so i was a little worried.

    But a little goes a long way. I don't wear it everyday but for a night out or a special day i treat myself.

    It leaves my skin very smooth as is. But when i apply foundation after. It really sticks to my skin and gives Amazing result!. It really does what it says

    I've gone through about four of these primers, and I will continue buying more! It is super easy to apply and goes on smoothly. You only need to use a little, so it will last a while. I don't even wear foundation, but I use it before I put on my concealer, blush, etc. It makes your skin a little more flawless, and is a great base for whatever you use afterwards.

    This is a nice product. It applies smoothly, and allows mineral make up to apply evenly. The only draw backs, are that I find I need to use more of the primer than another primer I use. Also, the price is really steep. For the same results and at a cheaper price, I prefer Sephoras primer.

    Even if you don't have to attend a function that warrants your makeup to be flawless, used sparingly everyday, this product delivers runway effectiveness. Application feels satiny and makeup glides on with ease!! I used a foundation brush to apply mine, I found that my makeup stayed in place at the end of the day...paired with Photo Op under eye concealer, I was getting awesome comments on my complexion/makeup!

    I have recently extended my make up buying from cheap drug store brands to the more elite, expensive brands. I am a make up-ahollic! Which is ironic since i don't wear it on a daily basis. As a usually thrifty shopper, it was hard to part with my $40 to purchase this product but I love it! Since I don't wear makeup daily, this product is lasting me forever! It also didn't hurt my conservation efforts that I lost it for a while, but managed to find it right before I went out to buy a new one. Anyways, this product feels like silk going on and a little dab goes a long way. I'd bathe in the stuff it was cost effective as I love the feel. It's light weight and non greasy and it keeps my make up exactly where it belongs! Not only that but it really assists in obtaining that smooth finish that you can't always get without a primer. Also, as a primer, it fills those fine lines that are unavoidable as we age. This product will always be a staple in my beauty collection!

    Very nice primer. Goes on smootha and silky, which helps the make up stay on all day. I just wish the price was lower :(

    This product is amazing.
    I have to be honest, before Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer I had never even tried a foundation primer before.
    But after hearing so many amazing reviews about this one, I figured it couldn’t hurt to give it a try.
    At first I was a bit put off by the price. But trust me, this product is worth every penny.
    And on top of that, it lasts for a really long time! I’m no longer concerned about dry skin causing foundation to go on uneven.
    After putting on this primer, makeup glides on like silk!
    It really gives regular store brand makeup that professional look!
    Do yourself a favor and pick this primer up! You won’t regret it!

    Makes foundation application flawless and really makes it last all day long and well into the night without any major touch-ups. Also doesn't let make-up settle into any fine lines. Will definitely repurchase.
