    Worth the hype

    This product is amazing. I'm someone who is not easily impressed, I refuse to spend a lot of cosmetics because I'm tight :) but, the Primer Photo Finish has exceeded my expectations for reducing dark spot correction. I had quite a large and dark sun spot on my face and could not believe it when it started to minimise almost immediately after using it and to be honest, I didn't even notice that it said 'dark spot reducer' so imagine my surprise when the dark spot started going!!! It's now almost completely gone. I honestly have never come across a product that works so well and they don't make a big song and dance about how well this works. I'd been offered a cryotherapy as an eye watering cost to remove this dark spot, so I consider this product to be the cheapest, most effect and pain free way of achieving that outcome.

    j'adore

    Celle-ci, c’est ma préférer. J’utilise que des échantillons ou des petits format en ce moment. Parce qu’elle coûte la peau des fesses. Mais elle rend le maquillage parfait et ne bouge pas au courant de la journée. Je vais peut-être me procurer legros format un jour ou continuer de me trouver des petits format ou échantillon

    primer

    I like to use this primer, because it’s feels all my large pores and create a good base for the foundation.I think it is a good step for flawless foundation day, especially if my skin is on the dryer side. But unfortunately it does not work for me in summer time, when I am oily. Despite that, I still enjoy using it most of the year.

    Makeup is just not the same without it!

    I absolutely love this Primer. My makeup goes on so much smoother and looks 110% better. Makes my skin look smooth & velvety. Lasts ALL day, at least 8 hours and more. No strong scent. Fine lines on my forehead and my pores around my nose & cheeks disappear. I get compliments on my skin all the time. There is a huge difference, when I do and don't use this product. You won't believe it, until you try it for yourself. A little goes a long way! Same thing, you can purchase a full size and mini size, if you really are not sure, purchase the mini size, and guaranteed you will fall in love and purchase the full size! It also lasts a long time as well, so it's well worth it for the price!

    WORKS AMAZING!

    If someone is looking for a good primer and wants to spend a little more money, this is what you should be looking for and using! It works well, and that makes the price not as important. I love this and would recommend to everyone! I

    I have been using this product for over 10 years and absolutely love it. I don't wear a lot of foundation (usually only if i am going out somewhere special) but I still use it even under concealer and powder. I find that it makes by skin much softer and easier for makeup application.

    I really love this product. I use it practically everyday either under my make up which helps set it for the day and my eye make literally does not move. Or I put it on my face on days i'm not wearing any make to give my skin a nice glow. I find it super expensive for such a small tube but you dont need much so it lasts a long time

    I receive as a sample from Sephora and I don't see any difference with this primer. I have oily skin and my skin is less shiny but still shine. I normally use a tinted moisturizer and I was disappointed to see no difference even when I try with foundation or bb cream. I'm happy I didn't spend 20$ or 44$.

    I received a sample of this with a Sephora order.

    I don't wear liquid foundation, however I do use liquid concealer, powder foundation, and cream blush. I have some issues with larger pores around my nose and cheeks, as well as some noticeable sebaceous filaments in those pores. I do what I can to minimize that.

    This has a very smooth, silicon feel to it. It glides on almost like velvet. It's not greasy or oily, which is good since I have an oily T-zone. I tend to have drier cheeks but this doesn't seem to accentuate that either, probably because it says it has anti-oxidants and is supposed to boost collagen. This formula is equally good for dry and oily skin.

    My makeup goes on more evenly after using this. I used this product today, when I was scheduled to have a half hour massage therapy session. My face was pressed into a towel for the duration of my session, and although I had creases in my face afterwards, my makeup hadn't budged, and it didn't budge until I took it off several hours later.

    This product really makes every day seem like a great makeup day. If you wear makeup frequently and for long hours at a time, this may be a good investment.
