    i would probably buy this again

    It works great at blurring pores and giving me a matte finish on my oily nose. I have been trying primers and this one by far helps my makeup look better and last longer. i'm looking forward to try more products from this line.

    New formula does not work like the original one

    The new formula in the new packaging does not work. It does not cover your pores at all! Please bring back the original formula or I will be trying new brands. Very very disappointed!

    I don't know yet.

    Have not used it many times. Jury is not in yet. Feels silky and really nice but unsure if the makeup stays on as well when I use it. Going to give a try again and will let you know

    Sadly not the same formula

    I used this primer for years and the new formula does not blur my pores or acne scars like the old one did. I'm so sad because the old formula helped me to feel so much better about myself. The new formula also makes me feel more oily quicker and doesn't seem to hold my makeup as well. I am looking for a new primer that compares to the old original formula.

    Nooooo!!

    I have used this primer for the past 6 years and it WAS amazing. I have ordered 2 separate ones thinking one was bad, but no I think they changed the formula because it is not the same anymore. It now feels oily and does not apply smoothly like before.

    Hands down GREAT

    This is my favorite stuff. It tops all else that I have tried. I use it alone mostly and it makes my face feel so good. There are a lot of look alikes that don't work so be careful! It's pricey too. It just takes a little.

    I was a long time user until now

    I have used this product for decades. It was the best on the market until recently. this was my go to never fail item, I am totally disappointed. When the product packaging changed so did the formula. It is now greasy on the skin (even though it proclaims matte finish) and is like all the other pore minimizing primers. I am so upset that I now have to find a product to replace by never fail pore minimizer.

    It did not live up to the hype.

    I'm glad I only bought a sample. I'm desperately trying to find something to disguise my extremely large (due to genetics) pores.

    Pores

    I have tried so many different products to hide my large pores that I inherited. I received this product in a subscription box over a year ago and at first I was like this isn't going to be any different than everything else that I have tried. So i gave it a try and AMAZED how well it covered! I followed with my foundation and my face was flawless! This is a must have for me!

    I would buy this product again and again!

    The best primer ever! I have acne-prone skin, combination of oily (t-zone) and dry (chin area). Also, I have large pores on my nose and cheeks. This product does not break me out and doesn't leave my face oily nor does my foundation (I'm using Huda's Easy Blur) oxidizes. I've been using this product since 2011 and it has never failed me!

    Changed Formula

    I have been using this primer religiously for years. Since they changed the packaging, it seems that the formula changed as well. Within 1 hour of wearing this formula my face was so greasy and my makeup was sliding off. I didn't do anything differnt with my makeup and continued to try and use it, but it kept happening. Thankfully went back to the store and they had the old packaging but it came with the benefit pore moisturizer so i had to pay more than I would with just the primer, but it was worth it. Once i switched back, my makeup went back to normal!
