Photo Finish
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

My new favorite primer
I have never used a primer quite like this. It blurred my pores all day and made my foundation go on so smoothly. I did not experience any peeling at all. All of my other products layered flawlessly on top.

The ultimate face primer
The ultimate face primer! I used this in my 20s and now going into my 40s. It works the best for my aging skin/under eyes where it lessons the appearance of my eyes lines. My only wish is they’d put this in a spray bottle for a setting spray.

Nice little contour kit!!
I recieved the Step-by-Step contour pallette and just used it today. I thought it was cream based but its actually powder. It has little instructions of where to put which color so it's pretty new user friendly. It has good color pigment and doesnt go on too heavy but can still look a little dry on ur skin, it isnt a more natural look, definitely more heavier look. But overall makes a nice little contour package and spruces up the face features to give some definition. I received this product for free from Smashbox for testing and review purposes."

Love
I absolutely love this primer! It smooths my skin instantly and blurs pores beautifully without feeling heavy. My makeup sits so evenly on top and lasts the entire day. The texture is silky, lightweight, and truly makes a difference — especially on busy mornings. Highly recommend!

Does what it says
Received this to try; it does what it says! I applied a pea sized amount to my tzone and whatever was leftover everywhere else. It made my pores disappear, didn't make my combination/oily skin more oily. Also didn't pill so that was great. Makeup application was smooth. Didn't notice any breakouts after using this for several days in a row. Will keep using and would recommend!

Awesome Primer!
Smashbox pore primer is excellent to cover imperfections, pores and lines. The texture is clear and lightweight. It has vitamin A & E. Its smooth texture is refreshing on skin. I received this product for free for my review.

Solid as a rock
To me, this is a nice old school primer. Remember when a primer was just like a silicone smooth base? That's kind of what this gives. It's a matte no bells and whistles primer. I think the brand has since released some variations on this fan fave to customize to your skin needs. I don't notice this being anymore blurring then the regular photo finish to be honest.

My favorite primer of all time
It’s pricey but I have yet to find a true dupe for this primer. I have stubborn and very oily skin, after a few hours makeup just slides off. This keeps it in place and matte all day long.

Original Phjoto Finish Smooth and Blur Primer
Love this primer. Really helps the foundation stay put. Dries quickly, does not cause breakouts. Love the clear color too.
