I had never used a primer before and was recommended to use this one. I sometimes use this when I don't want to use a full on moisturiser as it is not as heavy. I really like the way it makes my skin feel and I think that it does make the makeup last longer.

I swear by this, have used it for years!! First found it when I lived in the UK and now its a must. Introduced my sister to it and friends. When you have had one of those nights with your baby/toddler, I find putting this on and then my make up, just peps me up for the day. Makes my skin feel magic and alive.
I love this stuff! It is my mums and I always use it. I know that my mum loves it and even I love it. I apply this all the time morning or night, its not too heavy and not too light. It tightens my face while nourishing it. It leaves a nice dewy finish. I can wear this on its own or even under foundation. Its definitely worth the money!
I used to work as a Flight Attendant and the travel and air conditioning constantly left my skin dehydrated and tired looking. I was put onto this by a fellow Hostie and remember trying it for the first time when I had just come in from a 14 hour flight. I was blown away by how it made my skin look alive and healthy again...almost immediately. I didn't like it so much under my foundation as it tended to make my foundation clump. But I did like it on its own or under tinted moisturiser. All in all, I like to have some with me for those days I really need a pick up for my skin.
This brightens up my skin the same way a cup of coffee or a can or redbull picks up my energy level. Its quick, effective and makes you feel great. People have been commenting that I look radiant when I've been wearing this cream, it seems to instantly tighten and moisten my skin, especially round the eyes. Love it!
Tips: Great on planes when you feel like your skin has all the nutrients sucked out if it. If you try and put on foundation on top it sometimes loses its smoothness a bit, but looks so good you don't really need the foundation!
This product I first got as a tester and then purchased the full size. Absolutely love the feel of it on the skin. It's a great primer under a BB cream or on it's own for a fresh look. Definitely makes me feel a bit more glowy on a day where my skin looks dull.
I don't use it as an everyday primer as it's a very expensive product, but still love it!
Tips: Warm the product in your hands then pat on your face.
I first got this product as a free gift when i purchased a few products from the clarions counter, it sat in my draws for a few weeks before i tried it. When i did try it , wow i fell in love. It really does brighten my skin when it is dull , but i really like this product as a primer. When i use this as a primer it gives my makeup look such a nice glowing dewy look , whilst keeping my skin lovely and hydrated. I try an savor this product as much as i can as it would have to be one of my faves , but the price is pretty big as well , so i try use it sparingly. x
Tips: great as a pick me up for your skin in the winter.
This is my all time favourite product! I won some in a competition several years ago and have been eking it out and using it when I need to give my skin a lift. It is soooo moisturising and soothing. My skin feels a million dollars. Whenever I wear it at least one person comments on how good my skin is looking. I use it as a moisturiser either alone or under foundation or powder. I cannot say enough good things about this product.
Tips: Get some!
Amazing product! I use it as a flash balm under my make up as a mask abd as apick me up at the end of the day if I have to go out again incredible product
This is a must have for all occasions when you need a pick me up for your skin. I love this when you are on an airplane and can feel the moisture being sucked out of your skin, pop some of this baby on and you will be back hydrated in no time! Lightweight and easily absorbed. Price can put you off but i think it is well worth it!
