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.

Great primer but doesn't counteract redness

I love love love this primer. It's my go to and my all time favourite. I think its my favourite elf product. I bought this product because it is a cheap and affordable primer, and I went for the tone adjusting green because my cheeks often get red. Boy was I surprised by this product! For something so cheap I didn't expect much really. It makes your skin so soft and silky smooth.

I use this primer after I've moisturised and before I apply my foundation. I have oily combination skin and quite large pores. Using this primer makes my foundation apply more smoothly and lasts longer throughout the day.

I love how this primer comes in a pump bottle, as it makes it easy to control how much product you need. I only need a tiny amount, just smaller than a pea size, for my whole face. The primer is very light and silky and absorbs into your skin quickly. The colour of this primer is a vibrant green, but it dissolves into your skin quickly. I didn't find the green tone that effective at reducing redness, but it is a very good primer.

This is a product that I will definitely repurchase!

Fantastic primer, does nothing for redness however

I purchased this primer as I wanted to counteract the redness of my acne which often shows through my make up. The primer came packaged beautifully for an e.l.f product in a black box. The primer itself is in a classy silver pump bottle with a frosted finish. I thought the packaging looked lovely for such a cheap product, but the packaging did feel quite cheap and gimmicky. I liked the pump bottle as I felt it ensured the right amount was dispensed and that I didn't waste any of this. I was surprised to the see the primer come out such a vivid green; it just didn't seem to be the right kind of green to counteract redness. I found a little of this went a long way, so at least it was economical. I found this did nothing at all to counteract the redness of my acne so it did not deliver on that part. However, I found this to be a fantastic primer. This is silicon based and it helped make my foundation glide on really well, and this has to be one of my favourite silicone based primers I have tried. Whenever I used this primer I noticed that my make-up lasted a lot longer. Overall, I'd use this again just as a general primer also because it's quite affordable. I would not get your hopes up for any redness reducing.

Redness Lightened

I purchased this off Iherb and have been using it for a couple of weeks now, Packaging is classy, white, silver and clear pump bottle, it is a shame you can't see how much is left in the bottle though. You only need the smallest amount, 1 pump will do a little goes a long way.

It does have silica in it, so it has that silicone feel to it, glides on smoothly and leaves that soft silky feel to your skin.

It is a light olive green colour, but once emulsified into your fingers and face, it goes clear, but takes down any redness and irritation.

I have Irish in my blood so I get the days where my cheeks and nose especially get the nice red hue to them, I used to always use a green concealer but always felt heavy on my face. This product leaves my face feeling light and my foundation goes on smoothly.

I do find that later in the day, my nose starts to look flaky and patchy as the foundation starts to come off due to the primer staying quite moist.

Is a great product for the price!

I have the same problem around my nose by the end of the day too, I have found if I powder more in that area it helps.

Elf toped the cake yet again

So i love my elf products as they are so affordable and great. I purchased this and feel in love with it (i get red cheeks) It left my skin so soft and a even colour when i applied my foundation and also made it easier to apply my foundation, ive run out at the moment and i miss it my foundation doesnt go on easy and having to use a green correcting stick and doesnt last as long.

Tips: My tip is BUY IT!!

Primer

I have never used a primer before. I know so many people say that we are meant to use a primer before foundation. I went and brought this primer to see what it is like. I loved it! It didn't fully hide my redness. It lasted a while, not all day. I would by this primer again.

Tips: Can buy from Kmart

Very sneaky packaging!

Let me preface this by saying DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE BOTTLE! When I bought this I thought WOW! What a great price! But in reality, the product inside is in a teeny tiny tube so you're probably paying close to a non-drugstore brand if you were to compare size for size. Does that make sense? Despite this, it's lasted me about a month and that includes pulling the pump off and scraping the tube out :P Anyway apart from the very underhanded tactics, I genuinely love the primer inside. I use about 1 and a half to 2 pumps for my entire face. The green definitely cancels out some red. Obviously if you have serious redness you'd be better off with a green concealer but this does the trick for me. The consistency is thick and smooth but is a bit drying. That's perfect for me as my skin is more normal to oily. Does it smooth out my skin? To be honest I have pretty good skin and small pores (thanks GlamGlow super mud!!) so I didn't notice much of a difference. That said, I forgot to put it on one morning and my foundation just wouldn't cooperate! Once I realised I had forgotten my primer I took the foundation off and started again and had total success! So it must work, right? I don't think it particularly helps to keep the makeup in place any longer but as I said, it certainly helps with foundation application. Will I buy it again? Possibly but I think this time I will spend the extra money on the Smashbox one as it'll last me a lot longer.
