A Love Story from an Acne Prone Gym Goer
PHOTO: The attached photo is after approximately 12 hours of wear on a naturally oily face, and an extremely sweaty workout. I have fallen in love with this product as well as the eye primer. I went to Ulta in search for a new foundation because I thought that my Tarte, powder foundation couldn't h...

Not for Oily Skin
This is the worst primer I have ever used. I have an oily tzone, makeup slides off my nose very easily. I use Estee Lauder's Doublewear makeup and needed something to prime with. Previously, I had been using Benefit's Porefessional, which is decent for dabbing on problem pore areas. I bought sa...

Primer
Just received this product, so I've only used it once. I like the feel of the product on, so that's a plus
Does what it is supposed to
I love this product. I have wrinkles where my tinted moisturizer settles in. This almost completely avoids that. It makes my skin look and feel smooth. I have not been without it since I first tried it several years ago. Highly recommend if you are of a certain age with wrinkles.
I will continue to use this product over and over again.
I have tried numerous primers and this is by far superior to all the others. I won't waste my money or time with anything else.
The Original
This smashbox primer is the first I've ever seen going back to its release in 2000. And though many brands have developed primers, smashbox in my opinion is still one of the best.
Pretty good prime
This primer glides on nicely and makeup goes on smoothly over it. It makes your skin feel very velvety. It did not minimize the pores on my nose as much as I would have liked.
