4.1/5

A Bobbi Brown bestseller—a primer plus moisturization for smooth makeup application (it's the best of both worlds). Rich in feel, but never greasy, this advanced oil-free face formula, with Shea Butter, instantly hydrates, softens and cushions skin.

Bobbi recommends using Vitamin Enriched Face Base as the first step to prepare skin for the smoothest makeup application. With daily use, skin looks and feels its best. Dermatologist-tested.

A Great Primer!

This cream is so thick and hydrating and my favourite part is the smell, it has a lemon scent. I saw Jeffree Star use it as a primer in one of his videos and decided to try it and fell in love. You don't need a lot of product so even though it's expensive, it will last a long time. It's super hydrating and like the name says, a great "face base".

Tips: The girl at Bobbi Brown said you can use it as a moisturiser and a primer in one, but I like to apply it after my moisturiser as a primer.

A really great product

I umm-d and aaah-d for a really long time before I committed to buying this, purely because of the price. While it is expensive, it is also a gorgeous product and is actually far better than my other primers.

I personally like to do my regular skincare, then apply this over the top. It’s not greasy, and it doesn’t feel silicone-y or break me out, but it does give my foundation a gorgeous finish, and it helps it to last the whole day.

Pros: Lovely fresh scent (slightly lemony, still skin care-y). A little goes a long, long way so it will last well. Gorgeous jar component, complete with ridiculously unnecessary monogrammed lid which is inexplicably really just lovely.

Cons: The price. It’s the elephant in the room, but if you’re in to high-end face products, then it’s more than worth the money,

Even at over $100 a jar, I’ll buy it again when I run out!

Nice but pricey

I received a deluxe mini of this in a Mecca loop box. My initial reaction was that it smelt incredibly strongly of lemon for something I was going to put on my face. The smell does die down as soon as you put it on though. You only need to use the tiniest bit so even my little pot has lasted me a long time. This makes my skin smooth and soft, ready to apply foundation. As nice as this is, I wouldn’t purchase it as it is really pricey for a step that I normally skip.

Great but expensive

This product is amazing! So hydrating and works so well under makeup.

The only downside is the price. It's not cheap. Is it worth it? I'm not too sure, but I love it

Good

Works well as a moisturizer but expensive for what it is. Works best if you have plenty of time to let it absorb before you put on foundation otherwise to greasy. I used as a night cream and worked well

Pricey but nicey!

Well worth the price tag! It's not often that I say that as most things aren't worth the higher price, but this product is an exception! I've had this in my professional makeup kit for YEARS and I've used it on multiple clients with different skin types. Glides on like a dream, creating a smooth base for any foundation.

Tips: This product is a 'moisturiser and primer in one', but if your skin is on the drier side then I do recommend putting a lightweight moisturiser on first. The Vitamin Enriched Face Base can then be used as a primer on top. If you're skin is normal-oily then you should be a-okay with this product on its own! :-)

Love!

I use this product before applying my makeup. It helps with my dry combination skin tone. Its not to strong smelling and ensures the makeup a smooth surface

Not worth it

I wear makeup almost everyday and tried many moisturisers and primers as a makeup base. Honestly this is not a wow product. It is hydrating but a moisturiser will do the same job. For eg. Simple light moisturiser is a great moisturiser and under base cream and this bobbi brown cream does the same except with the unjustifiable price tag.

Amazing Base, Expensive

One of the best primers I have used on the market. I do not think it is worth the price tag so have been reluctant to purchase it again as there are other options on the market and Bobbi Brown still test on animals.

Tips: Lano Face Base Vitamin E Day Cream is a great cheaper alternate

Normal product

There was nothing amazing about this product for me personally but it didn’t not work. I just didn’t find any wow factors when using this.

Tips: No
