    I love this product. It applies smoothly, and evens out the occasional bumpiness in my skin. More than anything, I found that it reduces redness, and makes my skin feel soft, and velvety-smooth. I would not recommend this product if you have oily skin - if I wear this when it's warm, my skin feels oily. I think this would only be magnified on oily skin. It works well under cream and liquid foundation, but I found it to look flaky when paired with powder foundation. It's not too pricey, but it's always better to try and find it on sale. I would compare it to Urban Decay's primer, at half the price.

    I didn't like this primer. First, I didn't like the idea of sticking my finger into the pot (adds bacterial to the product). Secondly, I found I needed to apply alot of the product, which made it not last very long at all. Finally, it made my make up appear chalky. I use mineral foundation and it didn't apply smoothly and caked up.

    Good Primer, a little goes along way, good thing cause it's a small jar. Cover pores relatively well but does nothing to hide fine lines so that was a lil disappointing but all in all it allows a better coverage for your foundation.

    After trying this I admit I am hooked I dont wear make up that often but when I do, I apply this before anything.Sometimes when you apply a color stay or long wear foundation it dose not apply evenly, but if you apply Loreal studio primer base before the foundation or powder or both then you see the difference..Its awsome for keeping stray eyebrow hairs in place as well even if you do not wear make up.

    A frined had this as we were getting ready for a party, I only wear foundation for party and the such, and she told me to try it. I was VERY pleased! me and another friend even went out the next day to buy one for our selves. It went on smooth, even, and made applying the rest of my make up a breeze

    This is a really nice primer. Its not greasy and a little bit is all you need. The only thing I don;t like is the packaging. I don't like having to always put my finger into the little jar.

    This primer wasn't that great. I found my skin to get oily hours after use and found that it did not help keep my makeup on. The primer itself isn't light and silky like most but rather thicker and creamy. It's also not a cheap option B.

    this is the 2nd best drugstore primer i've ever used! (1st is palladio herbal foundation primer)
    it's a little expensive, but the quality is top bombing. the texture is thick but very smooth. it does a great job at smoothing the skin's surface and filling in pores. foundation/concealer glide over it. loooove it. but it's still second to the palladio. lol

    A little definatly goes a long way. I was hoping this would hide the fine lines around my eyes but it didn't. It did however make my pores virtually invisible. I would reccomend this to anyone wanting to hide pores, but don't excpect a miracle in the way of fine lines as it does nothing for that. :)

    So I do think this is is an okay primer. It is not silky like most primers are, it's more like a cream if anything. I bought a high-end primer and this drugstore primer and tested them for a period of time with drugstore foundation. With this primer my skin what super oily in a matter of a few hours. I have oily acne prone skin so I use a primer to fill in my pores and keep my skin matte. Also my makeup did not last at all. This product might be great if you have dry skin but it didn't do a thing for me.
