    Brilliant product

    This is the best primer I've ever used. It just melts into your skin and leaves your face feeling so soft and lovely. It's at the pricey end of the market but in my opinion, well and truly worth it. You only need a little amount as it goes a long way

    My favourite primer

    I have tried many different primers in the past and this one has been my favourite and go to. Smooths the surface, great look with and without makeup. Doesn't smell at all which is great. Clear application. I have oily skin and this keeps it under control.

    Spf Primer

    This primer is fantastic especially that it has some sort of spf. The texture and consistency of the product is comparable to Benefit's porefessional with a clear colour. It does lessen the look of my pores and my foundation applies seamlessly but this primer has silica and I find at the end of the day my face is feeling quite clogged, needing a deep cleanse.

    I have used Bare minerals products for three years. This oil control primer is a perfect base for both powder and liquid foundation. It leaves a Matt finish perfect!

    Super light weight and creamy. The colour is true to my skin tone, stays matte and light weight all day. Doesn't feel heavy and doesnt get oily. You don't have to use a lot either so the bottle lasts forever.

    A great primer! Light on the skin, very smooth to apply, absorbs almost instantly, and has completely transformed how I feel about my foundation! It lasts!
    The only thing that stinks is the pump doesn't work well all the time, but I still love the product so much that I'm not deducting a star for that reason.

    I love the way that this product feels when applied. It makes my skin feel so nice and smooth. It helps to make the Bare Minerals foundation go on smoother and have a less cakey appearance.

    I use this product under my foundation. I tend to be red in the cheeks and the yellow in this primer helps tone that down. My makeup then goes on smooth and seems to last throughout the day. I love the way it evens out my skin tone.

    I have been using this primer off and on for a couple months now, I am going to list my pro's and con's.
    PROS: Smooth's out pores/ minimizes pores. Is a silicon feeling instead of a cream (which I do find works better for smoothing the skin out). There is a lot of product, my bottle feels almost full.
    CONS: Because it is a silicon feeling primer it can get heavy if you accidentally use too much. Tends to look greasy with certain foundations.

    Overall because I have already purchased it, I will use it as it is a decent primer but I wouldn't repurchase as it does tend to look oily at times, more so in the warmer months. I have combination/dry skin in certain spots but my whole face isn't dry so it can be overwhelming at times when my skin is cooperating. I do recommend this to people with dry skin as it smooths down flakes. People with oily skin stay away, you may bend up looking overall oily. Again, this is based off of my experiences with this product, I do use liquid foundation and it may work differently with powder.
