It is light weight.
It is light weight and blends really well with your moisturizer. Can be used instead of foundation or face powder.

Wow!!!
So, I've never really been one for using a primer, but after testing this one out, I'm hooked! I was shocked at the difference in my skin and how smooth it looked and felt. Definitely a big YES from me 🤩

My absolute go-to
It's smooth, it's soft, it gives a nice finish and makes my makeup last - I first had this as a small one, but then went straight to the large size because I know how much I'll be relying on this. Don't sleep on it.

Amazing
Ive previously used this primer before and I already loved it. I love that it covers up my blemishes and feels so smooth on my skin. I like to wear it under my foundation. Sometimes I top up under my eyes to disguise my wrinkles, which really works for me 😁

Staple in my make up bag
This product is just quite simply my Holy Grail. I fell into the trap of buying primers a few years ago, not really understanding what they did, and also not really getting any visible results. I have large pores, texture and acne scars, and no primer ever seemed to make a difference, so why bother? Then I tried this product and just wow. It doesn't react with any of my other skincare or make-up, a tube lasts a really really long time, it's good value for money, and I can look at my make up 8 hours later, and it still looks beautiful with no visible pores, especially around my nose. This is always going to be a staple in my make-up bag. This product changed my mind about primers.

Great base for make-up
Im 45 - pores are starting to get viable (and make-up can hide in paws) this prevents this, and also banishes a bit of shine.

Not the Same
I have used this primer for years, but the last two orders have been bad. It's like wet clay. So disappointed. I'll have to find a new brand.

I wouldn't buy this product again
It is a good formula but unfortunately didn't work very well on dry skin. Did cover pores but felt dry.
