    Not as good for oily skin as it claims

    I had high hopes for this primer because I'd seen many reviews from people with oily skin saying that they loved this product. Unfortunately, it didn't wow me as as much as it did for them. It doesn't do a great job at reducing the look of pores or getting rid of shine. Sure, it looks very matte when being applied. But within a few hours I become extremely shiny and need to blot. I've also tried applying my foundation with a sponge and a brush to see if application played a part in length of wear with no differing results. You definitely need to set your foundation with either powder or setting spray so that it doesn't cause it to slide off your face. But if all the appropriate steps are followed, it has a decent length in wear without making my makeup look splotchy at the end of the day. Price-wise, it's also fairly budget friendly at $10 CAD at Shoppers Drugmart. For now, I think it is a decent fall/winter primer for me. However, come summer I'll need a more efficient primer to keep my makeup on during the humid summer heat.
