Elf toped the cake yet again

So i love my elf products as they are so affordable and great. I purchased this and feel in love with it (i get red cheeks) It left my skin so soft and a even colour when i applied my foundation and also made it easier to apply my foundation, ive run out at the moment and i miss it my foundation doesnt go on easy and having to use a green correcting stick and doesnt last as long.

Tips: My tip is BUY IT!!

Elf Primer

I haven't had a lot of experience with primers. The first one I bought made my skin sting, I then got a Revlon one - which I was happy enough with, but not the smell and I didn't feel it was amazing. So when I found this one on iHerb so cheap, I thought I would give it a go. Really happy I did. It glides on so well, and leaves my skin feeling smooth ready for my make up. Most importantly for me, no stinging and no break outs!

I have a lot of acne scarring which is quite red, rather than pitted. I admit I didn't believe that the green would actually adjust the red tones, so I did a half and half of make up on my face - and I was impressed that it really did make a difference. My make up lasted so much longer without a touch up, I kept checking it throughout the day the first time, not believing how well it was doing.

My two negatives about the product - Firstly it drys out in the tip of the pump quickly, so the first pump often goes a bit crazy. Secondly my plastic lid falls off ALL the time, it doesn't click down very well.

I really like this product though and will definitely be purchasing again!

Love it

I really wasn't sure that such an affordable primer would work, but it is awesome.

I have redness in my cheeks/nose area and as soon as I apply it I notice a difference in my skin tone. I try and let it settle into my skin for a few minutes before I start applying my foundation and then set with a powder.

It feels so silky smooth to apply, a little bit goes a long way and my foundation just sits on my skin so much nicer. I also find that it helps to disguise the scaring I have from break outs as it sort of fills in any imperfections.

This product reminds me of the Smashbox green primer and its a fraction of the price, definitely worth trying it.

Tips: Even if you don't normally set your foundation with powder I would recommend applying some in your T-Zone especially around the nose area as by the end of the day make up in this area can start to slip off due to the smooth silicone nature of this primer.

Great primer on a budget!

I have been an ELF user from way back when the jewelry store BLING used to sell it. This primer is 100000 times better than most other primers that are double the price. It is a clear gel that rubs in with a smooth velvety finish and feels absolutely amazing on the skin. I would think that it would be most suitable for normal/combination skins. I have friends that swear by this but the only reason I don't use it every day is because due to my super oily t-zone the only thing that keeps the shine away is Porefessional. Otherwise, anyone who is considering buying this absolutely needs too!

In Love!

I brought this on iherb for $4. I didn't think it would be that great but thought I may as we'll buy it because it's so cheap.

I have redness around my nose and cheek area and enlarged pores on my cheeks. When I put this primer on I definitely noticed a difference to my skin tone. My redness was nicely covered. It was so soft and silky. It wasn't greasy or made my skin feel wet (which I have experienced with some other primers).

When I put my make up on it look really good and lasted all day. I didn't need to do any touch ups and my pores were definitely covered. It's fair to say that I am now a convert to elf products. It's definitely a great but. Great value for money.

Tips: Let it dry on your skin before applying make up and use the elf kabuki brush for a beautiful finish!

Bye Bye Redness

I purchased this off iherb a while ago and before purchasing was not a loyal primer user. The two elf primers I have tried have converted me to using primer on an everyday basis. I have visible pores around my nose and cheek area and find foundation often seems to make my pores even more visible by sitting on the skin or sinking into the pores and making my skin look the opposite of the smoothness I desire. I also have redness around my nose which I really don't like. I have very sensitive dry skin so have avoided primers in the past as it is just another product piled onto my sensitive skin that could reek havoc and cause more dryness, irritation or breakouts. I am happy to say this primer has done none of the above and nothing but good things for my skin.

I find one pump of this product is the perfect amount to cover my entire face and comes cleanly and evenly out of the pump. I concentrate the product most on my nose/cheek area where I have issues with my pores and redness and also my nose, chin and forehead for any oiliness that may developed during the day (although for me this is usually only necessary in summer as my skin does not get particularly oily). The vibrant green colour of this primer is a tad concerning the first time you use it, but, I assure you it is transparent in colour when applied to the skin (So no need to worry about looking like the hulk).

The texture of this primer is similar to most silicone based primers and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth and soft. I find it helps smooth over dry patches, definitely reduces the size of my pores and their visibility under foundation and prolongs the wear time of my foundation or bb cream. I find it doesn't completely eliminate redness but most definitely reduces it and when I apply foundation over this my redness is gone baby gone! I am extremely impressed! I like to leave the primer for a few minutes to let it truly sink into the skin and just leave a gorgeously smooth canvas for my following makeup.

The packaging of this is plain, simple and sleek with a super handy pump disperser. Other primers I have used, just come in a squeeze tube and I find getting the perfect amount of product a bit of a battle. With this I don't even have to think about it as one pump is perfect and mess free.

In my opinion this is a fantastic primer irrelevant of the price. The super cheap price just makes it all the more amazing. For $6 I think this is a must have for everyone. I will definitely be repurchasing this and continuing to use it on a daily basis.

Tips: One pump is the perfect amount with this product. Once you have spread it evenly over the face, allow it to sink in for a few minutes before you continue to apply your makeup to get the best results. If you have visible pores, dryness which causes your foundation to look flaky, redness or just want your foundation to last longer give this a go. If you don't like it (which I doubt will happen) it only cost you $6!!

Like it.

I saw everyone going on about how amazing this was and how it really helped their redness, and I have redness in my cheeks so I thought I might as well give it a go. For the price, I am incredibly impressed, but I don't think it does a huge amount for my redness. It decreases it slightly once I've put foundation/BB cream on, but not a huge amount. But I like this primer for the fact of how smooth and silky it makes your face feel, because it really does feel gorgeous. I find it also makes your foundation last quite a bit longer than any other cheap primer does, but it doesn't quite last all day. FOr anyone who has never used a green primer before, it can be quite disconcerting and you think it will make your face appear green, but it just blends out to be invisible on your skin.

So Green!

I like e.l.f primers. They're the first primers I ever brought, and I got them off of iHerb which opened up a can of worms on it's own ;-). After using the normal mineral infused one, I decided to try the green one, as I have a bit of redness in my cheeks which drives me crazy and often isn't covered by foundation.

The color of the actual product is gorgeous, it reminds me of lush forests. It feels very silicone like, but it's not a bad feeling? I rub it all over my face and my face becomes so super smooth. I like to touch it a lot after haha! It holds my make up all day, except for parts like around my nose, but I don't expect miracles!

Upon application of this silky product I don't really notice that it covers the red. I apply it over top of moisturizer and let it sit for a few minutes before I apply any foundation or BB cream. Once the brown goo has been applied though, I do see less of the red coming through, so I suppose it works a little. I just wish it was instant action rather than covering it up! But never mind.

You really don't need more than a pump of this stuff. I put the little pea sized (and colored!) ball on my middle finger and rub it with my other hand, and away I go. One pump is more than enough to cover your whole face! So while I have something else that I use now, I would definitely repurchase this primer. For the price it works better than expected!

Its okay

I brought this after hearing many people rave about it, and because I do tend to have red toned skin.

The formula is very silicone feeling, but glides on nicely, and one pump does your whole face.

I found that it didn't really conceal any of my redness on my face at all, but a primer, it does make my makeup go on nicely, and last longer.

I did need to touch up during the day, but for a $6 primer it's pretty good.

Raving

Heard everyone raving about the elf primers so I ordered one from iherb and I love it. Makes my face feel soo good and makes my makeup go on so much better. The only thing I've noticed since using it is that I'm more oily at the end of the day but I'm not sure if its the primer contributing to that.. For the price its amazing!
