Oh no Maybelline, what are you doing?!

Ok, so this is not what any of us deserve to have on our faces. Maybelline, you really dropped the shimmer ball on this one, and unfortunately all of the shimmer particles landed in this primer. My preference when it comes to luminizing face primers are for them to be glowy, not shimmery. When I put a shimmery primer all over my face I end up looking both greasy and metallic, and while the Tinman from the Wizard of Oz is iconic, thats not a look I'm after.

In order to make the most of a bad situation, I will sometimes use the tiniest amount on my cheekbones and down the bridge of my nose. But I usually just slap this on my shoulders and collar bones to give my body a glow, cause we can't let this baby go to waste.

I tried the Master Prime Blur + Redness control. My area of concern for redness would probably have to be my cheeks and t-zone. This primer always sells through at my work, so I decided I'd give it a try.

It does help cancel out redness all day, however, it wasn't hydrating enough for my skin type. I'm very dry and it seemed to Make my dryness for visible.

This primer would be great for someone who has redness and combo/oily skin, as it is not hydrating enough for dry skin types.

I wasn't impressed with this primer, I don't hate it, but I don't love it either.
I found it have a really watery consistency, almost too thin to be effective, and I was a bit worried as I found it to be a bit oily. I didn't break out from it, which is a bonus, but I found that it didn't blur or illuminate. It would probably benefit someone who has perfect skin and just wanted to use it as a moisturizer.

I tried this product hoping to get a more illuminate look to my face, without having to use a powdered highlighter. While it gives a slight brightening effect to the skin upon first application, this effect fades very quickly. In terms of its uses as a primer, I do not wear foundation so I cannot speak at length about these aspects. I tried it with a tinted moisturizer and it seemed to blend easier, but I noticed no difference in lasting power. Overall, I was not a fan of this product.

i got the blur + illuminate primer, i'm mixed on this because i found that it really didn't work to keep my make up on, it does make my face shiny so in the summer it would look nice,
