    Obsessed!

    I love that this primer is super light-weight and a clear gel allowing it to blend effortlessly into your skin and super hydrating! It also has a very nice faint scent to it that isn’t too strong unlike other primers that smell terrible!
    I paired it with my everyday foundation and it definitely did stick up to its name and blurred out a lot of the pores I had on my skin! My skin also stayed hydrated the whole time my foundation stayed out and didn’t flake!
    Also let’s talk about the ingredients! One thing I’ve been looking for in a primer is ingredients to actually help my skin and this is it!
    This primer is silicone-free and contains prebiotic peptide, an anti-pollutant shield complex and Reishi Mushroom extract to help strengthen and protect your skin!

    Overall I love this primer and I’ll definitely be buying this again!

    Perfectly matte

    The absolute best make up partner! Instantly mattes my skin, creating a smooth barrier for my make up to glide on. I actually really love the earthy smell it has, 94 percent derived from natural ingredients. It looks thick in texture, but I find it is easily absorbed into my skin while leaving behind a matte canvas to work on. I LOVE this primer and will definitely be adding it to my daily regime.

    Not your average primer

    I am a huge fan of Grown Alchemist products so I was psyched to be able to try this primer from them for free in return for my honest review. And in that regard, I honestly love it! I use different primers for different products. When I'm feeling a more matte, blurred pore moment, I always reach for one with a silicone base. The problem with silicone is that is can hard to remove from the skin which can lead to irritation and acne. So, its something I reach for less and less. And now, with this Grown Alchemist primer, I'll never have to reach for it again. The texture is almost identical. I have no idea how they did it but it is amazing. It might from the fructose, something I didn't even know you could put in a primer. Texture wise, its silky and smooth. It immediately blurs all fine lines and fills those pores beautifully. It makes the perfect canvas for any look imagined. It is scented but it is a light, botanical smell. Which makes sense since this primer is packed full of a bunch of natural goodies such as Mushroom Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Orange Peel Extract, Rosemary Leaf Oil, Bergamot Fruit Oil, Moringa Seed Extract, Lemon Peel Oil, Balsam Resin, and Ginger Root Oil. Thats a crazy amount of nature in one bottle! I did use this primer many times and with a bunch of different skincare and makeup and I found that it played nicely with just about everything. I only had a little piling with one sunsreen and it wasn't super bad. I just used a big fluffy brush to get the piling off my face and everything else stayed perfect. Added bonus for a product that also protects the skin from pollution and all other manner of nasties.

    I only have one little con and that would be the price. She ain't cheap! But, at little goes a really long way so this 50ml tube should last awhile. This is definitely a product that I could see myself buying again and again.

    Best primer ever

    After using this product for last 5 to 6 times i will say it is one of the best primer ever tried. After using this primer my skin felt smooth and oil free. It has a nice matte finish. My makeup stayed longer and blurred my skin pores. It also illuminates my skin

    Very moisturizing oil free gel primer

    Thank you for sending me this Grown Alchemist Anti-Pollution Primer to try! This product is a game-changer, especially since I live in a dry and cold city. The primer creates a protective barrier on my skin; I feel immediate moisturization and cooling. I love that this primer contains antioxidants, which help to combat free radicals and prevent premature aging. I habitually check ingredients; this product is made of safe plant-based ingredients. The formula is lightweight, feels like a gel, and absorbs quickly, making my skin smooth and silky. It doesn't leave any residue on my skin and has no scent. After using this primer, my foundation no longer leaves my skin dry. This primer has a very light orange peel scent, is natural, and almost unnoticed. I recommend this Anti-Pollution Primer to anyone looking for a high-quality product that will protect their skin from environmental damage while providing a smooth and flawless base for makeup application.

    Love the cooling effect of the primer

    I received the Grown Alchemist Skin Defense Primer from Butterly and Grown Alchemist for testing and review purposes.
    I have been using this product regularily prior to applying my makeup and I can say this product leaves my skin smooth and well hydrated which is particularly key for making makeup look flawless.

    The gel is super lightweight and non-greasy. It's a clear gel that is easily absorbed by the skin without leaving any residue or irritation. Its silky like texture leaves the skin feeling super soft and silky and helps provide a more matified look of the skin. There is a slight cooling effect when applied, which helps to minimize the look of pores and give the face a more fresh feel. There is a slight pine/citrus smell to the gel which is refreshing itself.

    I apply a small dab to each cheek a dab on the forehead and massage it into my face. You really don't need a lot to cover the whole face and it dries pretty quickly so you don't need to wait long before applying makeup!

    Enhances your combat routine against aging!

    I got to try this primer for free for testing purposes courtesy of @butterly and @GrownAlchemist.
    The smell, is good. It reminds me of medication but in a healthy natural wise way. It comes out of the tube easily and glides over my face with ease and absorbs over top my other skincare very nicely. You first wash face, put on vitamin c, then moisturizer, followed by SPF and top it off with this primer! I am 41 now and I love the idea that I can protect against aging on top of my SPF defense! You don't realize how much pollution is in our air and this puts an invisible shield up! You can't even tell it's on, it's that good. The primer does a good job at blurring my fine lines.I found that my eye makeup and coverup go on over top very nice. This primer has made a happy new spot addition to my skincare & makeup routine! Nothing bad to say about this product! I love how this is a natural product! Keeping pollution and environmental irritations at bay and it doesn't add to it with it's own chemicals! Thanks Grown Alchemist!

    I’m in love with this Primer!

    I received the Grown Alchemist Skin Defence Primer from Butterly to test for free and I was really pleasantly surprised with everything about it. Starting with the scent (it’s got a citrusy scent that’s really lovely and refreshing without being overpowering) & has got a texture that glides on very smoothly and easily onto the skin. The way it covered my pores and smoothed out my skin felt amazing. And the way it helped my lightly tinted moisturizer glide on made it feel amazing as well. It literally felt like my skin was very smooth and silky and it stayed feeling that way all day. There was no oiliness and dryness the way I usually have at the end of a long day (picture has been taken at the end of the day to show how well it stayed put).
    I definitely recommend this to others! I’ve heard amazing things about Grown Alchemist products but can say now that I have experienced the magic in their products first hand!

    Silky & Marvelous!!

    In love! I am very picky when it comes to the face primer I use, but this primer absolutely passed my test!
    Applying it feels cool & silky, absorbs so well and you only need to use a small amount for a large area. So great!!
    It is odorless for anyone who doesn't like strong scented products.
    The biggest thing.. it works!! Grown Alchemist Skin Defence primer worked to blur my imperfections, and my foundation and concealer no longer had a cakey/flakey look!
    I love it and would recommend everyone to give it a try! :)
