I've tried various different primers (From Smashbox to Revlon) and this one is my FAVE. It claims to ‘virtually banish pores while tired skin is left hydrated, firmer, and detoxified’ and ‘creates the perfect canvas where skin looks younger, fresher and younger’. I stand by all of these claims!
First and foremost, this does not cause me breakouts! My skin doesn't feel clogged, and the mattefying effect means no shiny face. The primer is a light creamy texture, and is very easy to apply – smoothes over the skin easily and feels amazing. My make up goes on like a dream over top, and stays put through a days work AND workout.
My only gripe is that it isn’t readily available here in NZ (though that is the case with so many of my favorite products!)
This primer goes on smooth and doesn't leave the skin feeling too powdery.
Foundation looks flawless over top, it keeps oiliness at bay and minimises the appearance of pores.
Tips: You only need a pea sized amount, it spreads well.
