MAC Prep + Prime Skin Review

Smooths skin amazingly, allowing for foundation to glide on over the primed skin effortlessly. Small glitter specks in the primer make for a glowy foundation look. It is a little pricey for the amount so I tend to use it more on special occasions or nights out rather then everyday.

I don't own my own mac prep and prime face but my friend does and every time i get ready with her I feel as if its a a step I can't miss out. I feel as if My foundation just has a more flawless finish and looks a lot better after using this product. Need to get on to buying my own, if anyone knows a cheaper version (dupe) of this please recommend i find that mac products can be overpriced but I guess you have to pay money if you want good products.

I don't usually buy Mac makeup as I find it to be a bit pricey for me but I just went on a trip to South Africa and went a bit nuts at the Mac store there! This prep and prime leaves your skin feeling so nice and makes foundation application a breeze!! It really does make your face stay on all day!

For the price you pay, I would expect a great primer that holds make up all day. As a flight attendant I'm constantly projecting n image and half on half off make up isn't the image I want to project. It worked well up to a point and then I feel like I'm constantly having to touch up, which I rarely have time for on flights. I prefer E.L.F. for satin finish and how amazing it makes my skin look.

I love MAC products. The first brand that really caters to all skin tones. Naturally trusting the brand already I brought this prep+prime. It's a bit pricey. I use it only for outings. It definitly does what it's supposed to do and "keeps your face on" when your out & about. due to the price I don't think I would purchase it again as I've found other primers more in my price range doing the same thing.

I absolutely adore this wee primer, I ordered the 30ml bottle from America about 6 months ago and I use it almost every day and it's still going strong! - the pump dispenser is absolutely awesome and pumps the perfect amount every time! I like to apply this on top of my moisturiser and give it a bit of time to sink in. I always apply it with my hands (I don't know why I just like to) it gives my skin a beautiful smooth appearance and makes foundation application a breeze, I find it works well with oil free and matte foundations and also gives an amazing base for Boyne cheap and high end foundations. I definitely recommend this primer and will be repurchasing myself.

I have tried a couple of primers, and I have another one on the way to try soon! However the MAC Prep and Prime is definitely my favourite, the slight illumination provided is really handy when you aren't a pro at highlighting.

I often wear the primer with just a light layer of powder foundation over the top when I am in a rush, or not wanting to wear much make up due to either running out of time to put it on or general laziness. It makes the product stay beautifully and is great for evening out skin tone even though it isn't a true 'colour correcting' primer.

It is quite expensive, however 1-1.5 pumps provides ample coverage and if you know you are going to use it regularly then you can pick it up in the occasional sale.

This was my first ever primer I bought and I haven't found one as good since. I haven't tried another high end primer though as they are just too expensive for me, so have to stick with drugstore now.

I use 1 pump for my entire face. It glides on like a dream, moisturising and smoothing. My skin feels like velvet after application and makes my foundation apply flawlessly.

It helps my foundation last longer which is one of the main reasons I buy a primer (I do not like to powder my face at all).

I only have two complaints. 1. The price. It is sooo expensive I have never bought it again even though I loved it! 2. Although I like the look of the sleek packaging, the bottle is not see through so you cant tell how much you have left.

The packaging is your general sleek black MAC look, but slightly glittery which gives a hint to the contents. This was my first primer so the consistency freaked me out a little, with it being slightly greasy-but don't be scared ladies! This is how it's supposed to be! It's white with little speckles of glitter which you can't see one applied so again- don't be scared! 1-2 pumps gives me good face coverage. Then follow with your foundation. You'll find your foundation glides on over top and looks miles better than without a primer, smaller pores and a bit of a dewy set. It lasts as long as your foundation is on. I find I really only use it for special occasions because a bottle runs for over $50, and I'm generally not a big spender on high end products. I do love my look when I wear this product and would recommend it for anyone looking to improve their general look.

My mum actually buys this regularly and so I thought I would try it out. It's beautiful! The shimmers in it are stunning :) though not eveyone will enjoy the sparkles it is a great illuminting primer. Makes my makeup stay on well and skin look soft and even. It's pretty pricy however a little does go a long way! I couldn't use this everyday - primers give me acne. Special occasions however is fine. The bottle is really pretty and glittery too!
