Hmmm

I love Rimmel products they are cheap and generally do the job. This was no exception. It acted as a great smoothing primer for my face. It made foundation glide on.

My only issue was that I have combination skin and found that it was a tad oily. I purchased the clear one, if that makes any difference and I definitely think it does a better job than no primer at all but it's not my first pick.

Rommel fix and perfect primer

I always have this product in my kit as I can rely on it to fill in pours ans fine lines,I find it evens out skin tone and brightens your face for foundation application,I put a pea sized amount on my fingers and dab into my cheeks,nose and forehead,this method helps the primer fill in the pores,it comes in a tube which is real handy if you need to take out with you,there is no worry of breakage

Tips: I was 5 minutes before applying my foundation as it lets the primer work into your skin

Good if I'm on a budget

I love rimmel ! I also can't live without a primer and this one is "okay" for my skin type. I'm normal/combo and I tend to get a bit oily in my Tzone and I found the primer couldn't defeat this and I had to re lend out my makeup after about 3.5-4 hours of wear. I think it's a great product if I'm on a budget and can't afford something more suited to my skin type. I do find my makeup glides on smooth and even using this primer just the staying power doesn't work for me unfortunately ....

It is OK

I brought this because it was relatively cheap and I needed a new primer. I find it to be average - it glides on smoothly, has a nice texture and my makeup definitely stays in place. But it doesn't really hide or minimise my pores, which is my main focus when i buy a primer. I don't think I would buy this one again - so the hunt for the perfect primer continues unfortunately.

Tips: Great for someone who doesn't really have pore issues, like me :)

not a fan

I swear by primers but this one isnt a favourite. It felt more like a tinted moisturizer than a primer and at that it felt caked on my face. I didnt find it light - which is what a base/primer needs to be if i am putting foundation over it.

Not that great

Definitely didn't like this primer as much as I thought I would. I found that it didn't really prime my skin and my foundation looked as though I hadn't primed either as it went oily and yuck looking quite soon after applying it over this primer. I didn't really like the fact it was tinted as the colour moved around a bit, and it also did nothing to cover my pores which is one of its main selling points. I suppose it would be decent for people with drier skin who have barely any pores, but I probably wouldn't recommend it.

Brilliant

I use this product every time I put on my makeup and it defiantly allows my makeup to last ten time longer. Its a definite "go to" before put on any of my makeup.

Keeps me matte

I was on the lookout for a mattifying primer because my skin has become quite oily and I needed something to stop my makeup from sliding all over my face. This primer is definitely better than wearing no primer at all, I did see a difference in the oiliness of my skin but I still got shiny after a few hours. The product is really thick and looks and feels like PVA glue which I don't mind too much. It's relatively cheap so I will repurchase if I can't find anything I like more

Very good stand alone primer

I was quite surprised to find that this primer looks really nice as a stand alone product, so perfect for that day when you don't want to wear full makeup but still want to even out your skin. Wouldn't say it's the best primer to use under foundation that I have used, but would definitely buy again just for those lazy days (or sunny days)

Tips: Highly recommend popping it on for those sunny makeup free days !

A little Gem!

I have been using this product for a month now and I am impressed with its ability to make my makeup look amazing including occluding all those wrinkles I have and lasting all day and into the evening.Amazing little gem of a product.

Tips: A little goes a long way! Use sparingly before moisturizer.
