    This isnt my typical brand but i got it as a sample and decided to give it a go. I was happy with the product. It isnt greasy and holds all day. I like that is doesnt take a lot to spread on face. It doesnt make me breakout or leave my skin feeling heavy. I like it.

    This primer had the weirdest texture I've ever had in a primer. It felt very greasy and was not a pleasant thing to put on my skin. I don't even know really how well it worked as a primer because I only used it a few times. I think I would rather spend less money on a primer that felt nicer on my skin, and worked a bit better. I use all of my primers under my foundation, although some primers say you can even use them on top of your finished make up. All in all, I would not repurchase this primer.

    I decided to give this brand a try as it never hurts to go outside your comfort zone. It went on smooth didnt feel heavy on the skin. This is very clear based compared to my current one which is more creamy. It definitely does the job but no different or better then my current product so i probably wouldnt purchase again. If you dont currently have a preferred brand i would recommend this product

    Got a sample of this primer from Sephora and I got to say, it's really good! The silky texture just makes this product super amazing !!!

    Pros:
    - it works / primes the face beautifully
    - silky texture
    - glides on smoothly
    - light
    - keeps makeup (ie: foundation, blush, bronzer, etc.) in place
    - has a travel size option

    Cons:
    - price

    I guess I always mention price as a con (which I am now realizing is just the regular markup of makeup), this product is very comparable in price to its competitors. The other most recent primers I've been using are the Too Faced Primed & Poreless and the Benefit POREfessional, but I think the Smashbox is my favorite among the 3!

    Been using this primer for the last month, and it works really well overall

    Pros:
    - non-sticky feeling
    - leaves skin smooth
    - great silky texture
    - not heavy on the face
    - light
    - airy
    - keeps makeup in place

    Cons:
    - expensive

    Even though its expensive, I may come back to this product - still trying out a couple different brands right now !

    This primer works well for me. It allows my makeup to go on smoother and last all day. Its a bit pricy, but well worth it

    I use this when I know I'm having a long night as a primer and it keeps my makeup on all night without smudging! It works great in my combination skin and I sometimes mix it in with a moisturizer if it's going to be dry outside!
    A little pricey at Sephora, but still worth it!
