Great Everyday Primer!

I LOOOVE this product and use it as my 'everyday' primer. It has a silky smooth silicone feel which I love and makes my foundation glide on over top. I have normal skin and this primer works great for me.

I didn't give this product a full 5/5 as while I like the packaging look, I found the pump to be cheaply made and doesn't always work. Sometimes i have to pump 3-4 times for one pumps worth to 'splatter' out but then other times the pump works fine. Other than this minor detail the product inside works great and I find this a great cheaper alternative to Smashbox's very popular Photo Finish primer - which I also own, and love. I also didn't notice much of a difference in pore size with this product although this really wasn't what I bought it for so I'm not too worried by this.

The price is great, I bought it off the elf website during a sale however I know that you can also get it for around $3-6 off iherb.

I would recommend this primer to anyone looking for a cheap everyday primer, or to someone who is new to using primers and doesn't want to fork out for a high-end one just yet.

This is a silicone primer, so if you know you don't like these types of primers I would say this one definately isn't for you :)

Tips: I use about two pumps worth to cover my entire face - if you use too much you end up causing the foundation to slide around on your face as well!

Mineral Infused Primer

I love this primer. For such a cheap product, this primer gives a fantastic silky and smooth, canvas for makeup and makes foundation go on much more evenly. You only need to use the smallest amount for good coverage so it lasts longer than other primers I've used previously. It also makes makeup stay much longer, which is fantastic.

Love this primer!

I had never used a primer before using this product, so I can't compare primers, but compared to using a moisturiser prior to foundation this is FANTASTIC. It leaves my face feeling so smooth all day (I actually made people touch my face it was so smooth!). A little of the gel goes a long way too which is great, especially since it's a great price. Easy to use pump so you can never get too much product in your hand. I have noticed a great difference in my make-ups staying power - I still find at the end of the day my makeup looks good. I used to have issues with my eyeliner ending up on the top of my eyelid by the end of the day but not using this primer!

Tips: You can use this all over your face, eyelids and lips included and I find I only need a half-pump of product

Prime Converted

as a complete newbee to primers, i thought I'd try this one as e.l.f seems to be a brand with a good reputation on BR & the price was right when I was ordering something else. Have been using it for about 2 weeks now & definitely makes my foundation stay put. In fact I will now use my foundation which was simply heading towards it's best before date alone in the drawer of doom. now I can use the makeup previously purchased! Also I have found it great to keep eyeliner & more of my powder eyeshadow on for longer!

Total convert now.

Great primer

This was the first primer I used and I loved it! It's so smooth and soft on my face and my makeup goes on much more evenly when I use it. You don't need a lot and its so affordable! I was skeptical about primer for a while but now I wouldn't put makeup on without it. I have used the green one for redness also and I didn't feel it did anything for my redness but still an awesome primer. I would highly recommend it! Makes my skin silky smooth! :) I have also tried the max factor primer but this one wins hands down!

Tips: Don't use a lot or it can start to become flaky.

Super Smooth

I love using this primer, it was the first primer I ever purchased and I still continue to use it all the time.

The primer comes out clear and thick and has a silicon feel to it. It is very easy to apply as it glides over your face and leaves your face feeling super smooth and soft.

The primer is dispensed from a pump attached to a hard plastic bottle. The pump is really easy to use and dispenses a small amount of product which is all you need as a little goes a long way in giving you full coverage of your face, pea size is enough.

I found that the primer doesn't have much of a fragrance, if anything it smells a tiny bit plastic like.

I have found that the primer does increase the length of my make up. I put it on in the morning and it lasts me a full 8 hour work day. But if it is a hot day my make up does start to come off a lot earlier. When you touch your face you can feel it slide off.

I apply this primer and then usually style my hair so that I give it time to sink in and set. I apply my foundation over the top with a brush and I find that because the primer has made my skin so soft my foundation moves around easily on my face and that I am able to get better coverage.

The packaging is very simple but durable due to the hard plastic bottle. I have never had any trouble with the pump. The size of the bottle is quite missing leading though as there is a lot less product in the bottle than you think. But because it is a super cheap primer and you only need a small amount it is very good value for money.

I have combination type skin with both dry and oily patches and I really like using this primer as it evens out my skin and makes my make up last longer and easier to put on.

I use this product and a regular basis and it is a must have.

Tips: A little goes a long way and make sure you give it a few minutes to set.

Primer

Such a bargain. I had never used a primer before using this one - I thought for the cost it would be a good starter for a beginner like me, if I didn't like it, it only cost me $6!

I love the packaging, a pumper is so easy to use and pushes the product to the top - no product goes to waste. The product itself comes out like a gel and spreads so easily over my face. It doesn't feel cakey on my face either. I have no other primer to compare this to but I love it. It has no scent and my skin hasn't had any reaction to it. I thought having a primer would make my face feel fuller but it feels very light.

Having this on my face makes applying my liquid foundation so much easier, it glides on my skin effortlessly.

Silky smooth

I like this primer it makes my skin so soft and smooth, it's such a good price and lasts quite awhile because you actually don't need to use heaps, I like the packaging it's classy but it looks like you get quite abit of product when In fact you only get a little bit, aside from that it's a great primer and it makes my foundation apply nicely :)

Worth it, budget diva friendly.

This product is a budget-friendly primer that comes out clear and helps create a smooth canvas for foundation or BB cream. I first purchased this on IHerb, but then have since got it at Kmart when they started bringing it into New Zealand. It is also budget friendly as you don't need much, I start with one pump and then apply that and then doing another if required. The price is good, I enjoy the finish and how it applies. If I had to think of a similar product, I'd probably say it's along the lines of the Lancome Le Base primer (but for A LOT less in price).

One thing I didn't like about it was that I don't think it helped my wear time or balanced out oil production. The packaging is also quite bulky but easily solved by popping this in a travel tub if you're heading on holiday. For the price, I'm willing to forgive a packaging flaw.

Tips: When you think you've finished it, and it's not pumping as well, open the container up and there's a surprising amount in there.

Great to have a comparison to another product it is similar to. Trying to start with a good cheapy to see if it's something that I actually want. Great review, thanks!
