Rimmel London Fix and Perfect Primer Review

Honestly, I'm still on the fence about this one.

I bought it in Target while in America as I had just run out of my Napoleon primer and was pretty disappointed when I found out it was a pink-orange colour, I try to keep my skin looking as cool toned as I can. Luckily it doesn't affect your tone too much and it does the job okay but its not anything spectacular, I'd say you could find a better primer that is also as affordable, maybe try the ELF primer.

It gives a smooth matte finish but is ineffective with pore coverage, I'm lucky to have decent skin, so if you find that an average primer won't cut it with your skin type, I say steer clear of this one, try the ELF primer or even shell out a bit more and get prep and prime. This seems like a 'bottom of my make-up draw' product when I get around to buying another primer.

I got this because I had run out of my ELF mineralized and I needed one for the ball. Did nothing for my skin, and I hated the feeling it left, almost tacky.I was scared when I saw it was a pinky-orange colour, but thankfully it doesnt tint my skin at all. I just didnt like it at all, will not rebuy.

I did not enjoy this product at all.

I have quite pale skin so the orangey/salmon colour did not work well for me at all! It was super noticeable once applied which wasn't good at all.

May work for people with darker skin but for me it was a no-go.

This was my first ever primer that i bought, i have quite large pores so a primer is a MUST! When i applied the primer it kind of stuck in my pores and the product is orange so it didnt look overly great. Its average, didnt completly smooth out my skin or minimise pores overly well. I found my skin to still be quite oily and i didnt really notice my foundation stayed much longer than without primer.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 boasted about this when I first used it, but it was my first primer.. I realise now my mistake. Whilst this is cheap, and probably good for dry skin, my skin is normal-oily and found this has no power compared to other primers. It does come out of the tube orange, but it does go clear I found, but if you were incredibly pale, I don't know if you would go orange or not, because it can be quite a strong colour.

I think if you're on a very low budget, with dry skin, this would be a primer to try, and eventually move on from, but other than that, no way.
