Rimmel London Fix and Perfect Primer Review

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.

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.

I use this primer almost everyday with my tinted moisturiser. It really helps the tinting effect to last longer. However, when I used the primer with RImmel BB cream, I had this cakey feeling. I tried to improve this by scrubbing my face before putting make-up on and using a good sponge as well. Sadly, I can't achieve the natural look I want.

I've used both colours of this primer, I was a little stand offish with the orange tinted one (001), but since starting to use the white (002) it has been on my face every day! The orange tint made me nervous as I am very fair, so the white cream is perfect,.

Makeup goes on smoothly, pores are still noticable but everything stays on all day!

I had previously used another brand priner and was very disappointed, so didn't want to spend a lot on something which didn't work.

For the price this product is amazing.

My makeup goes on at 6.30am, and is still in place at 9pm when I take it off.

For the price it is certainly worth trying - I was very pleasantly suprised.

This is actually a good primer. I hadn't used it for a while due to having a couple of new ones, but rediscovered it and began re-using it during my product panning over recent months.

The packaging is very simple - a 30 ml squat white tube with dark purple screw cap and labelling. It's not inspiring packaging, but this is a product that lives in the bathroom, so that doesn't worry me. The screw cap can be a little tricky as once the products on your fingers the tube has to stay open until you have clean hands again which isn't ideal for a face product.

The primer is a disturbingly orange shade fresh from the tube but soon settles to a natural skin tone as you smooth it into your face. I have shade 001 and it's fine for my pale skin.

I have oily skin and this actually acts as a mattifier as well as a smoother, which I wasn't expecting. With this as a base it's much easier to smooth and blend foundation - and as promised the foundation does last when you use this.

It has a foundation-y scent, which is very faint and not at all offensive. Once applied, skin feels very smooth.

I don't know that a primer of this nature is necessary every day - I mostly use it when my skin is shocking, or at night - but this is definitely worth a go for the comparatively small pricetag

This product is a great price & to be fair, is pretty good value for money. It makes your skin feel smooth & dries quickly, ready for your foundation. Foundation then goes on smoothly & blends out well. It definitely helps with staying power, but I have found that now it is getting colder, my foundation seems to separate on my nose. If I dont have the primer on, it just rubs off.

Sent from my iPad is that whilst it

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.

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

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)
