Stila One Step Correct

A favourite from way back, ever since I discovered this colour correcting primer I haven't looked back. My skin tends to be on the blushed side on my cheeks and the green tones in this correcting primer really balance them out and gives an even complexion

I have to be honest, I bought this because of the packaging. I didn't even read what it did. Can we just talk about the packaging for a second.. Its sooo nice! I have never seen anything like it, the spiral is so pretty and I like how you can see the pump go up as you continue using it which shows you exactly how much you have left.

Anyway, now to review the actual product.... The packaging says it is a skin tone correcting and brightening serum. I think it does its job to an extent. I would definitely agree that it is a brightening product which I really like, however, I don't think it does the best job in correcting. Some parts of my face are still quite red and I have to use a green concealer to fix that. These areas are typically around my nose and cheek area.

The product does feel very nice on the skin however. It is light and feels almost like a moisturiser. I would use this product again, however I think personally, I need a primer that has more pore filling qualities and I would just use a green concealer to cover my redness.

I would recommend this product as it feels really nice on the skin and it works well with all foundations I have used.

I really love this product!!!! It feels lightweight but really evens out the skin like no other primer I’ve used before. I was really happy to see it available in a mini size at Mecca as it meant I could spend $30 and still get a decent amount of product instead of the usual $55+ that it normally is. It comes in a plastic pump which only needs a light pump (it does come out quite quickly) for the perfect amount. The first few times you use it you will get mainly the green coloured serum but that’s just due to the way the product is placed inside the jar. I’m not sure what each colour is designed to do but I find that my red nose seems less obvious and any redness on my cheeks seems to disappear. The main thing I love about this is that it seems to stop my foundation from going patchy, which is a real issue for me. It definitely enhances the wear time of my makeup and is one of the most lightweight primers I have used. It is pricey and if any primer seems to keep your makeup in place then you could probably skip this one but if you’re like me and struggle with an uneven skin tone and patchy makeup by the end of the day then it is 100% worth the splurge.

This was my first primer and i thought i didn't need primer till i came across this and it caught my eye from across the store. I instantly fell in love with the primer and brought it. The next day i used it and it really did make a difference. My foundation was showing and then on I have used primer since.

I tried this after a friend told me it got rid of the redness in her cheeks, something I get from time to time. It goes on really easily but I'm still getting the knack of pumping out the right amount. Too much and it makes my face a tad greasy, too little and it doesn't really do much. It may be the above issue, but occasionally I've still noticed the odd bit of pink in my skin after I've applied my foundation. I do like this product but I feel it doesn't quite do the trick. Perhaps I need to use it more frequently but so far I'm not sold on it.

This was one of the first primers that I ever purchased, and looking back after trying out many other primers, I still love this one!

I'm a sucker for packaging, so that's what instantly caught my eye, I love how the product sits in the bottle and the cardboard-look box it came in.

It is really easy to apply with my fingers and found a little goes a long way. It made my skin really smooth, even and helped my redness. I found it really easy to apply my foundation over it and everything seemed to stay put during the day.

I would definitely repurchase, I'll keep coming back for this primer!

This primer is totally awesome, makes makeup lst when day. Doesn’t disappear into skin has a nice amount grip for the foundation to go onto. It corrects uneven colour in skin tone, I have slight red colouring which evens out and makes nice base. Very hydrating also.
