    This is my HG primer. I used to use the Laura Mercier oil free primer and that was decent, but it doesn't give my the flawless finish that I've always wanted. This primer, on the other hand, is silky and does a really good job of controlling my oily skin. I would definitely recommend this!

    I really liked this primer, did the job, wasn't heavy. I can't speak to price as I obtained it as a sample....but I'll definately consider purchasing when the sample is all gone.

    Ive recieved 2 samples of this products when buying other items and I like it, not sure if I would pay full price for it tho, maybe if I had a giftcard I would consider, but for the price , I'd rather switch to something cheaper , if only this item was so expensive

    This was the first primer I used, and it serves it's purpose. I've since found others more suited to my skin type, but do feel this primer works well for those with enlarged pores to provide a smooth canvas for the rest of your makeup. It feels - not quite greasy on your skin, but like it leaves a film. I've always hates the packaging, as a lot gets left on the sides of the bottle - I have to use a q-tip to get the rest out. I prefer the new tube packaging.

    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

    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!

    This stuff is great! My face feels so soft and smooth whenever I put this on. Plus it doesn't feel heavy on your skin and makes your makeup stay on all day. I love this primer. It is my favorite face primer.

    I bought this in addition to my smashbox high definition foundation. The primer I purchased is oil free (very important as my T-zone is quite shiny). It helps my makeup go on evenly.

    Again, a bit pricey ....but that is smashbox! To me, its worth it!
