Tips: Make sure you moisturize very well before applying the primer
This primer really does make your skin feel soft and flawless, but what I've found is that when I apply my makeup and I'm ready to go out not even half way through the day my makeup starts to slip off and get patchy in areas and it's just makes me feel oily. I really wish I liked it, but I don't it's really a horrible primer and I hate how my makeup looks during the day because of it.
Awesome for the price! It does a good job at making skin smooth and I do use it religiously as I like the way that it feels when applied, however, I'm not too sure that it makes my makeup last for a long time. In saying that, it does really well considering the low price I paid for it :)
I have big unsightly pores on my nose and on the inner core of my cheeks and when foundation is applied to my non-primed skin it has the look of an orange peel because it looks as though my pores have drunk up the foundation. Its not a pretty face to look at.
Since I have found this primer that has all has changed. I really have to becareful with overloading my skin with products because not only is it really oily but it will break out in acne with nobody's permission. I love that this primer has kept my oily skin controlled when using foundation and also doesnt cause me to breakout in acne.
I love the feel of the velvety soft and creamy primer has when you rub it inbetween your fingers and when you apply to your face it literally disappears and becomes another layer of skin. It is little weight and effortless to wear and the best part is that it works great with any liquid foundation I use. The pump bottle disperses the perfect amount of primer and its not messy to disperse at all.
I've been using this for about 2months and have recently become a advent convert of the powder before foundation routine and my foundation has never looked better and better yet... my orange peel is no longer around!
I apply a generous layer of this primer and smooth it out until it completely disappears, then apply a light layer of translucent powder over the primer. The primer causes that my skin doesnt have powdery finish at all and lastly I'll apply my foundation.
These days (when I make the effort) my foundation is flawless, my foundation doesnt turn into an oil spill within a few hours and my skin is not breaking out so badly with the overuse of foundation.
I love this primer and for the price of $6 and the amazing quality, this primer is not leaving my product collection!
Tips: If you have big pores you definitely need a primer for your foundation to appear flawless.
Apply to skin and allow to completely dry and disappear into skin before applying powder or foundation. The foundation will grip the primer must better this way.
The first thing I thought when I put it on was SILK! It is so silky smooth when you apply it to your skin & it feels great. I find that my foundation blends easier, looks way better & stays longer with it on (I also use Skindinavia setting spray with it). The rive is great-if you get in quick once they've re-stocked. I wish they had this stuff everywhere-Its awesome.
Tips: You really do't nee to use a lot at once, so use sparingly & it goes a long way
One of the first primers I used and still continue to use on a daily basis. While there are two more high end primers I like, I save those for special occassions or long nights. This is fa for every day use-feels like silk, makes your skin smooth and a great base. A must for beginners or people on a budget-great value for money. Am interested to see what their other primers are like!
I purchased this off iherb a while ago and before purchasing this was not a loyal primer user. This has converted me to using primer on an everyday basis. I have visible pores around my nose and cheek area and find foundation often seems to make my pores even more visible by sitting on the skin or sinking into the pores and making my skin look the opposite of the smoothness I desire. I also have very sensitive dry skin so have avoided primers in the past as it is just another product piled onto my sensitive skin that could reek havoc and cause more dryness, irritation or breakouts. I am happy to say this primer has done none of the above and nothing but good things for my skin. I find one pump of this product is the perfect amount to cover my entire face and comes cleanly and evenly out of the pump. I concentrate the product most on my nose/cheek area where I have issues with my pores and also my nose, chin and forehead for any oiliness that may developed during the day (although for me this is usually only necessary in summer as my skin does not get particularly oily).
The texture of this primer is similar to most silicone based primers and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth and soft. I find it helps smooth over dry patches, definitely reduces the size of my pores and their visibility under foundation and prolongs the wear time of my foundation or bb cream. I am extremely impressed! I like to leave the primer for a few minutes to let it truly sink into the skin and just leave a gorgeously smooth canvas for my following makeup.
The packaging of this is plain and simple but I am glad it has a pump dispenser. Other primers I have used, just come in a squeeze tube and I find getting the perfect amount of product a bit of a battle. With this I don't even have to think about it as one pump is perfect and mess free.
In my opinion this is a fantastic primer irrelevant of the price. The super cheap price just makes it all the more amazing. For $6 I think this is a must have for everyone. I will definitely be repurchasing this and continuing to use it on a daily basis.
Tips: One pump is the perfect amount with this product. Once you have spread it evenly over the face, allow it to sink in for a few minutes before you continue to apply your makeup to get the best results. If you have visible pores, dryness which causes your foundation to look flaky or just want your foundation to last longer give this a go. If you don't like it (which I doubt will happen) it only cost you $6!!
A primer that makes my skin happy. Totally in love this product as it helps my foundation go a lot further and leaves my skin feeling soft and manageable. Foundations normally make my skin feel like it cant breath since using this primer I haven't had that problem. The primer evens my skin tone out and is a great base.
Makes makeup removal a lot easier at the end of the day too.
A constant item in my chart from iherb
Elf primer is perfect for lady's on a budget or lady's looking to get a bargain! I brought this product on a recent online haul for $6 so was not expecting too much out of this product. I was pleasantly suprised!! The bottle is a cute design and clearly states what it is! I Have found that one pump was the perfect amount to cover my entire face. The product spreads on easily and makes my skin feel absolutely amazing!! It helps my foundation to glide on easily and look flawless!
The only complain I have about this product is that it ran out very fast (in about 2 weeks) so I took off the lid and found that the product does not actually fill the entire container it's almost an illusion!
Although I feel bad complaining as the product was so cheap and it did make my skin feel amazing! Would definitely reccomend this primer!
Tips: Allow product to dry before applying foundation!
Love, love, love!!
I've tried several different primers in the past but never understood what the fuss was about. None of them have ever made any difference to my foundation nor been even noticeable.
But after reading lots of good reviews, I gave this e.l.f product a try. Oh my goodness - I now understand what the fuss is about. Firstly, unlike the other creams that just disappear, this is a gel and you feel it giving your skin a lovely even coating - kind of like plastering a wall :)
But despite the even coat, it feels incredibly light and smoothing. After letting it sink in, I used my usual foundation and found I needed much less than usual for an even finish. Hours later, my foundation is still on and not moving or looking oily. I couldn't recommend this more, especially at less than $10.
