Great for redness

I really like this primer, I have a lot of redness on my face and thought this did a pretty good job of correcting it. The only downside is the amount of product you get, it looks like alot but i found i went through it really fast. Would recommend though

Tips: Buy it from iherb its only $8nzd

At least the price is reasonable so sounds like worth trying.

e.l.f Mineral Infused Face Primer, Tone Adjusting

I liked this product but it was nothing ‘wow’. I too was deceived by the bottle - I thought it held a LOT more product than it actually does, so when the pump stopped working I assumed it was a problem with the pump when really there was only a little bit of product left. Luckily the bottle is easy to disassemble and I was able to get every last bit of product out, and a little does go a long way.

The product goes on smooth, and seemed to correct oiliness when first applied, but I’m not convinced that it kept oil at bay. And while this is a nice cheap primer which definitely helped prevent dry flakiness and overall prepped my skin for makeup, I didn’t feel it really counteracted redness. If you actually have rosacea or excessive redness, this product alone is not going to address it. But if you’re looking to try a primer for the first time, or are on a limited budget, this one’s a good one to pick up for everyday use.

Value for Money

In terms of the actual product, I really liked this primer. The green tone was perfect for helping to hide of the unpleasant redness in my skin tone. The texture was really nice too. It went on really well and I loved the feel of it on my skin. I've bought this primer a couple of times. Once I did get what was possible a 'dud'. The product was a little clumpy, but only avery minimal amount. And I have gone back to this primer and had no worries. This downside of this product is the packaging. I found it to be very deceiving. Although I should have known by looking at the quantity on the packing, of course I didn't. I has really disappointed to see that most of the bottle is not filled with actual product, but was very crafty packaging of green plastic and thin air that made it look like the entire bottle was fill.

Tips: As long as you remember that what you think you see in the bottle is not in fact all usable primer, then this product is awesome! But I guess you get exactly what you pay for. I defiantly don't mind the price for the quality of the primer.

Average

So this product is good but since using other products and seeing other results Id say this is average. Its great if you are on a budget and need something affordable but I felt that my makeup sat on top of the primer and even with a setting spray its still didn't set, I felt as if my makeup was moving and If I was to hug someone my makeup would fall of onto their shirt. The good side is that it does even out my skin tone and it does create a smooth surface. Also I expected more to be in the bottle due to the size but there was very little.

Tips: Clean fresh face before application

I liked this primer, but it didn't cover my rednes

I've recently finished up a bottle of this primer. I'd been using it on and off for just under a year and even though there isn't a lot of product in this ( that is something that annoys me about elf products, yes they are cheap, but a lot of their items have such a tiny amount of Product! ), it lasted well because you only need a small amount.

I like the packaging, it's sleek with a nice pump applicator. If you turn it upside down, you can sort of estimate how much product is left. Of course, the packaging is much bigger compared to the little amount of product that's in it.

The actual primer is a bright green and looks sort of scary to put on your face. It does glide over your skin like silk though and once it's over your face, I couldn't see and difference that the green made. I get redness in my cheeks and on my nose and this didn't help disguise that. It does however, make my foundation smooth on better and it helps to fill in the pores a bit on my face. I'm not really sure if it helps make my makeup last longer and i don't really have fine lines to see how it goes on that.

Overall, I'd probably pick this up again. I do think as a normal primer it works well but if you want redness cover, than try something Else! I think iherb has this the cheapest but only if you buy a few things to justify the postage costs.

Fine primer, no redness reduction

As a primer, I love Elf - it makes my face smoother and the foundation glide on easier. However, as someone who suffers from mild rosacea I was really hoping that this would help with redness, which it did not. I would buy this again as I like the actual product, however I do not think I would recommend this to a friend as it does not exactly do what it promises.

Nothing Special

Like other reviewers, I found the primer did not cover my redness at all but it still makes a fine primer. I haven't tried any of the others in the range.

Personally I prefer my primer to be a bit thicker and feel more silicone-y but it's fine for the price & does make for smoother makeup application. I wouldn't go out your way to get one if there is no ELF in your area. For around same price point you could get the Maybelline Babyskin primer.

elf primer

As my opinion goes I don't like this primer as it doesn't cover redness it also does not keep its name as a primer as it doesn't seem to stay applied to urn face for very long. As I apply to my face I would only have it on for about ten mom's when the primer starts to fade and not appear to be working as it has dried out.to me it's only good as a practice run or for someone who may only like a little touch of primer to there skin .not recommended at all

Tips: Only recommend as an extra as part of ur make up kit

Wheres the product?

To start off, this primer does do its job. It has a nice silky feel and applies extremely well. I definitely notice the difference if I put foundation on without it. However, I do have a bone to pick with the packaging of this product.

There is only 14g of actual product, and if I had known this, I probably would not have bought it. It is partially my fault for not actually checking but who normally does? The actual container holding the product is inside another clear container that screws off. And when you look at the green container holding the liquid, you will also find that the product only fills up half of it. I can see how online purchasers may fall for this also as they aren't able to properly see the packaging. For this reason, I will probably not be re-purchasing this product.

Not good for redness

I got mine from iHerb for about $3.00 so I find it to be very economical which is a good thing as the packaging is a bit misleading. The pump dispenser it comes in looks to be quite big, but it reality it's not as the product is actually encased in another smaller tube inside the bottle. It's lasted me quite some time, just over a month with daily use (including my neck)

I use about 1 1/2 pumps to get the desired result.

When you pump it out it's a rather putrid green coloured primer which is supposed to combat the redness in your skin, I find this to be grossly exaggerated and it hasn't made any difference whatsoever to the redness. What I do like is the feeling and look of my skin once makeup has been applied over this, it seems to make a visible difference in the texture and pore visibility so I would use it again but not for the purposes of trying to cover redness.
