Decent primer

This primer is ideal for people with dry skin but works okay on combination. It is hydrating and cooling and has helped my make-up stay on longer.

Not for Oily Skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The consistency of the product wasn’t really for me. Not the best for combo to oily skin. I did not experience a cooling effect either. Not my favorite product

Nice cooling effect

Used under eyes mostly as mine are dry, did seem to help concealer and finishing powder from creasing/flaking. Cooking effect is nice too.

This gel primer is really cool and feels good on your skin, but it doesn’t mix well with foundation.

Applies smooth, really love the cooling benefits f

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never used a primer sticky before, so it took some getting used to. The primer glides over your skin very easily. The tube is easy to hold & apply the right amount needed. You can immediately feel the cooling benefits, which is great for my sensitive, rosacea skin that usually makes my skin feel warm. It works very well to keep water based foundations from sliding off of my skin.

I didn’t start using primer until about five years ago, and I tried to find out what the hype was about. For me it made my makeup go on smooth and also stopped me from getting any skin breakouts. This particular product has a cool feeling and a nice coverage it allows my makeup to go on beautiful.

Made my makeup patchy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not a really big fan of this primer. When I used it with my makeup I seen that my makeup did not sit well, moved around and would start coming off in my nose area. Might be that my makeup is oil based and this might be the opposite which is why it didn’t work. However on its own to maybe just wear it to hydrate my skin I would.

Perfect for all seasons

This primer has become my absolute favorite. I wear over my moisturizer but under my sunscreen in the winter and summer. I kind of dry out in the winter due too harsh cold and kinda burn in the summer due to sun and heat. It’s so smooth and cool glides on effortlessly. I reapply throughout the day as necessary. Sometimes I also wear it alone if I’m not leaving the house it’s super moisturizing.I keep several on the road with me, in my purse, in my bathroom, bedroom and living room at reach at all time. It has no color blends well doesn’t clump be of their many best products. I hope they keep forever.

Cooling, lightweight primer for comfortable full-c

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this primer, even though I don’t use it every day. I save it for when I’m doing a more full-coverage makeup look and want my skin to feel comfortable from the start. When applied, it feels cool and refreshing on the skin, almost like a calming effect. The texture is gel-cream, it glides on easily and doesn’t feel sticky. After about one minute, it sets to a soft, dry-touch finish without drying out the skin or making it feel tight. ⭐ In summary: refreshing, lightweight, and comfortable. Perfect for prepping the skin when you want a more polished makeup look without sacrificing comfort.
