Did the formula change?
I love this primer and have been using it for a long time. With that said, something feels different about it since the packaging changed. Did the formula change? My experience with it is that it doesn't perform as well.

Best primer
I’ve tried others, but nothing else gives me that silky soft & smooth touch that this primer offers. Helps when applying powder foundation for a smooth finish

Favorite product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer is a new favorite of mine. The tube makes it easy to use. I don't feel like I'm wasting any product. I like the fact that it applies easily, is lightweight, and prevents my makeup from creasing. I'm interested to see how it performs during the hotter summer months.

Love the primer, hate the pump
I’ve loved this product for so long and recently got delivered the pump version. I hate the pump - it doesn’t mix and always squirts out and splatters everywhere. Also super hard to tell when it’s low or empty until it doesn’t come out any longer. Please bring back the tube!

A new staple!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of the Prime Time primer in exchange for my honest opinion, and it completely changed how my foundation sits on my skin. It feels incredibly lightweight but instantly fills in pores and smooths out my complexion. I love that it doesn't feel drying, yet it grips my makeup perfectly so I don't have to worry about touch-ups during the day. My skin just looks softer and more airbrushed when I use this underneath my base. Definitely purchasing again!

I love the primer before I put on my bare minerals powder foundation original. This is the first time I have received the primer in the new packaging. I do not like the new packaging. I repeat, I do not like the new packaging. You can’t get all of the primer out. I like it better in the original packaging. I’m using it anyway until I can find another product that is as good.

Overall good product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like it! Has a blurring effect over pores which is nice. I wouldn't recommend for oily skin as it has an almost greasy feel, but works great on my dry skin.

Definitely a keeper!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer was AMAZING. It completely covers all of my pores, and makes my makeup go on smoothly. I works great under liquid and powder foundations! Give it a try! I received a sample in exchange for my review.

Great primer!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer makes my makeup last longer especially in my t zone. Goes on smooth. You don’t need a lot of the product to make a difference.

Perfect Primer!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Bare Minerals Primer is great! It feels so light and works amazing underneath the foundation and mineral veil. I will be re-purchasing this product.

Think I will like it a lot
I just started using this so not sure how I feel yet. I am traveling in the U.S. but will be going back to the Caribbean soon. I need to see how it works in our heat and humidity. I used it over the holidays, but it was coolish, none of our normal heat and humidity. I am hoping I love it and I am planning to get the setting spray soon.

Dispenser
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I agree with many others, love the product but hate the pump. A tube, like the other primers, is much better.

Pump
Love the Primer. However, it doesn’t mix well in the container. No matter how much you shake it up, you sti get a thin oily substance that dispenses. The old bottle I could take the top off and use why was inside the bottle, I cat seem to get the top off of this bottle. It’s disappointing and I’ll have to find an alternative.

It is great for dry skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have combination skin, and I tend to get very oily throughout the day. This primer made my face feel heavy and my pore's clogged. It also made my skin extra oily. I would say this is a great product if you have really dry skin but for me it just did not work.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this primer, it definitely blurs any and all imperfections of your skin and leaves it looking fresh and smooth.
