I have tried a variety of primers, however being a MAC lover/loyal consumer, I was hesitant at first to purchase this Napoleon primer. After being swayed by the sales lady, I decided to purchase it! And, I'm so glad I did, it glides over your skin and leaves a silky smooth finish. What impressed me the most, is that my make up was still intact at the end of the day.

Reviews
I've tried many primers on the market and this would have to be one of my absolute favourites.
With the packaging, whats not to love? A beautiful gold tube, that I love to look at pride of place on my dresser. It looks like an expensive primer, and it is. What I've found though, is the more expensive primers tend to be the best. This and Smashbox Photo finish primer are both amazing!
What's so amazing about this? Well, for starters it's great for my sensitive and slightly reactive skin. The formula is lovely, it's a white colour and easily absorbs into your skin. My dry skin feels nourished, hydrated and smooth.
This primer creates the perfect base for my foundation. I can't believe I went so many years without using a primer! It's such a necessity for me these days! Using this it really helps with the longetivity of my foundation. At the end of the day, my makeup still looks nice. This primer does what it says it will and more.
I totally agree with Napoleon how Says: “Not to Prime is a Crime!". If you haven't tried this primer, you should!
Five stars. I would definitely recommend this primer and won't hesitate to repurchase.
YES not to prime is a crime with a tube full of gold like this. I added onto my NP Photo Ready Foundation with this primer and was amazed at what it added. The 'look' was smoother, had more of a dewey and glowy look. The primer is lucent and glides on so smoothly you wouldn't know it was there apart from is lovely smell. It settles into your skin quickly, can literally apply foundation straight away. It's well worth the extra splurge as you don't need a lot and the tube outlasted my foundation I purchased at same time. I was really impressed at the difference it made! WIll never go back to just slapping foundation on again, I'm saved.
Tips: A little bit goes a l-o-n-g way!
This product is fantastic. It smells great, goes onto the skin smoothly and dries / settles quickly. I use this with Revlon colour stay foundation and can even go out straight after work to an event without having to reapply my foundation. Love the gold bottle too, it looks super expensive but I think it's reasonably priced for how long it lasts.
Tips: You don't need to use a lot.
What a fantastic product! It was the first primer I ever owned and it smells gorgeous and makes my skin feel like silk. I have tried a couple different primers but nothing compares to NP. My foundation goes on smoothly with auto pilot as my base and it helps my skin stay hydrated throughout the day. Very easily applied, just glides over your skin.
Tips: A little goes a long way, I find using my fingers ensures minimum wastage
This hands down has to be my all time favourite primer, it was also the first one I ever used! Although it can seem a little pricey, a primer is such an important thing its something to invest it! My foundation look 100 times better when I used this beforehand, its light, leaves the skin feeling nice and doesn't get too oily!
Tips: If your not 100% sure this is the product for you, try out a sample size. However be warned you will want to buy the real thing after.
I have tried so many different primers over the years and being a makeup artist I like to try new ones to see which is going to be best to use not only on clients but myself also. This stuff .. is amazing. It makes my foundation go on so smoothly and lasts all day/night ! I wear this under my MAC studio fix fluid foundation and it is the perfect combo !! I love the way this product feels, as a lot of primers have that really yucky silicone slimy feeling to them but this doesn't. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a great primer.
ME: "Primer, what's Primer" MUM: "Are you serious? You dont know what Primer is? You don't prime? Not to prime is a crime!".
Rewind 3 years ago, I had NO IDEA what Primer was. My mum introduced me to Primer. Her primer of choice? Napoleon Auto Pilot. Naturally, I invested in it to see what all the fuss was about. 3 years on - it has become apart of my everyday beauty routine. I absolutely love this primer. It fills in the fine lines which have recently "blessed" my face (I earnt them!) and big pores I have on my cheeks. It really does assist in creating a flawless finish, so much so - that the very first time I wore it, a friend was 'blown away' by how flawless my skin looked. I have and always will recommend this product - it is quite pricey, but trust me, a little goes a very long way. The wee bottle lasts FOREVER! Money well invested.
This was my first ever primer and until they took the Napoleon counter away from my farmers this was all I used. When I first starting using this it was only $40! It has now gone uo to $67. The primer itself is ok but after trying other primers on the market its not the best and this one is quite pricey. I find this best for everyday wear and best to wear it during the day, it dose work but I would not go out in hurry to buy it any time soon
I first got convinced to try this when I was randomly shopping around for a new primer. I had never tried any Napoleon Perdis products and the sales girl was really good at her job, so I decided to purchase it.
When I first tried it, well, I was quite disappointed. It didn't seem to make my make up last any longer and also for some reason made my face quite oily and my foundation was quite shiny. Rather than give up (as I have tried in the past) I changed my moisturiser and wow, what a difference it made.
My foundation definitely became a lot more long lasting. Didn't really do anything with camouflaging or minimising my pores or helping with the fine lines under my eyes, so am still looking for a primer that will help with that.
Being that it is a bit of a pricey primer, it is lucky that you don't need a lot to do the job, so should help with making the product last a lot longer.
Tips: I just use a little bit and wait perhaps a minute for it to soak into my skin before applying my foundation. Be very wary with the type of moisturer you use before the primer as using the wrong one may make the primer not work as well.
