This is a great drugstore Primer. I find that it does fill in my pores, and actually hides some purple scarring on my face. However I am not sure that it actually holds my foundation on any longer, and I find that it is rather sticky, which makes applying foundation sometimes a little strenuous in the morning. Not great, but not bad either.

Tips: I don't think anything beats this for the price.
This primer does do what it states and provides a blank canvas for makeup application but it is too orange, sometimes the orange shows through your foundation which is not ideal.
Tips: Not recommended for light skin tones.
So I only got this a few weeks ago..had high hopes...
It's thick and it's a salmon colour so my first thought was WTH!
It dries clear.
It's smooth skin.
It did not fill in my pores. MY foundation sinks into my pores and just infuriates me.
This is not suitable for larged pore girls like myself.
This primer is slightly above average overall! Firstly, it has a slight orange tinge to it, which is not best if you are fair - it can show under your foundation a bit. It does do a good job at smoothing out your skin and providing a nice clean canvas for putting your makeup onto. It is really affordable which is great if you are on a budget. However, there are many many better primers out there! The packaging is lovely
Tips: Apply with a brush as not to transfer the oil from your fingers onto your face
this product was just bad for me it made my face so orange i thought i would give it a go as i love the rimmel matte powder and a few other products but this was just a big let down to me my foundation went on so badly i removed it straight away i would not reccomend this primer there are alot better ones out there for the same price range !
I just repurchased this primer which means I really liked it. This is my every day primer I wear to work. I like it because it feels like a moisturiser and not like usual silicone primers. This may not be as smooth as those ones but I love it on my skin. I have the 002 which is the white one which dries clear anyway. I just think it is a good base before foundation or bb/cc cream and it makes my makeup last longer. It's not amazing but for the price, I think it's pretty good value. I get mine from Asos which is around $10 so it's cheaper than buying it in stores over here.
Tips: Buy Rimmel cosmetics off Asos if you want to try them out because it's cheaper there. It may seem like a small tube but I liked it so much, I cut the top open and there was so much product left at the bottom that I couldn't squeeze out!
This was the first primer I ever used. I was a little worried about it's peachy/orange tone and the scent really got to me.
I decided to try it anyway and it did nothing to my skin except make it look really greasy (which is odd because I have dry skin), and it didn't help foundation stay on. I'm now wondering I this is because of the greasiness.
I'm not sure ifI I perhaps got a bad batch but I used it straight for a week and then threw it out, I hated it so much
I was looking for another primer to use and came across this one, I was so excited to try it because I love the Rimmel products. It glides on very smooth, it has a mousse texture to it and a browny orange colour to it. Once its rubbed into your skin the colour fades and it leaves a smooth finish to your skin.
I found using a small amount of product and applying it to small areas worked a lot better than using a larger amount and applying it to your face because if you don't rub it in properly the primer leaves a powdery finish to all the parts you didn't rub in properly.
It made my foundation last a little longer compared to just wearing foundation. I have only recently used up all the primer but wont be purchasing it again.
This is my every day primer and i use it religously! i love that its super affordable and it really does the job it says it does :) the colour that it is when it comes out is a bit of a put off but when blended i cant tell. It does make my foundation last all day and really smoothes out my skin for a flawless finish. I would say that im in love with this primer!!
Tips: Apply, leave for 5 mins to set, then apply foundation
I love Rimmel foundations and so thought I would give a rimmel primer a go.
This primer has a peachy tint which once rubbed in disappears (although is a bit odd looking when you squeeze it out of the tube). I found this made my skin feel smooth (in that silicon primer kind of way) but didn't minimize my pores at all. It did seem to help my foundation stay looking nice all day but that's about all it did. I wouldn't recommend this primer and will not be repurchasing it.
Tips: Use a small amount, otherwise it will feel heavy on your skin and will not rub in properly.
