smooth as silk skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] just started to use this along with the renewed SPF moisturizer and I love that this goes on light, you feel the primer within seconds on putting it on. I don't use this with foundation but rather with the powder concealer and foundation and the coverage is so much smoother now. I love this product!

Improving my skin.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just started using this product recently. I had been using a moisturizer that caused me to break out so I was looking for a product that would work with a new moisturizer and prepare my skin for makeup. So far, this primer is working well and its oil-free consistency looks and feels good on my skin. It smooths the skin's texture and is a great preparation for makeup.

No staying power
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looked nice upon application, however, didn't last for more than a couple hours. Not sure if it rubbed off or if having oily skin was a factor.

Good primer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried this for the first time, it works great with liquid foundation, or to use for no make up days- doesn't go well with mineral makeup. Overall decent product
