love

I have only tried the green coloured primer, but i love it. it is my daily primer, it feels so silky smooth and creates a great base for foundation. i love that they offer all different colours to help counteract discolouration.

Prepares the skin

I definitely notice a difference with my make up application if I use/do not use this primer first. This primer helps my make up application as it gives a good base for my foundation/concealer to sit on. When I don't use the primer, I find that my foundation looks stodgy and patchy, as well as being very difficult to blend and spread.

This is such an affordable product, I buy mine off of iherb. I'm quite new to primers and this was a very good one to start off with. I'm not sure whether it is the best on the market but for its price, I would presume that it's up there. The packaging is basic but doesn't look 'cheap'. It uses a pump which is a good way to distribute the right amount of product; I have not had any problems with the pump.

The primer feels silky and has a silicone smell to it which you get used it although it does put me off the product a little bit.

So Silky

Ok so its my first time buying and trying a primer. So i will give my most honest review as i can. I had to seek some recommendations from a friend of mine that sells make up and she gave me a few to bring home and try for a few weeks. This primer out of the three grabbed my full attention, not only was it silky silky smooth when applying but it doesn't have a heavy feel to it like the others which made me want to rub it off. Anyway i waited for mine to dry first and then i applied my foundation later like my friend had said. I could absolutely say that at that point i knew i had been doing my makeup so wrong for some time hehehe. I was blown away with the smooth coverage and hold that this product was allowing the rest of my makeup to do. mY Eye shadows sit right and hold longer and when i had asked my friend how much was it going to cost me i thought she was going to say my soul because of the quality. But she said i could get it for like $9....woah what a steal. I stand by this product because it helped cover a few of my large pores without showing through after my foundation and the fine lines from under my eyes. Thank you e.l.f

Tips: Only pump small amounts at a time when applying to avoid running out very quickly like i did. But like i said its basically the cost of lose change :)

Very first primer

To be honest this is the very first primer I've used so I cant compare to how it works against other primers. Firstly, just a few wee bad points..there isn't a lot of product in this container, I didn't read the amount that's in it I just judged off the size of the bottle, which is a bit of a trick since there's just a smaller tube inside the bottle that's full of product. I've also found it's hard to find in store, every Kmart I've been to is sold out most of the time but it can be bought online so that's alright. Now the good stuff! The product itself is really nice and smooth, you don't need much of it to cover your face and you only need to wait a couple minutes for it to dry enough to then apply your foundation. It definitely helps to control the oil on my face but it doesn't disguise some of my larger than life pores! All in all I'll purchase this primer again, for the price of it there really isn't much to complain about.

First Primer!

For a first time primer user this was pretty great! It smoothed out areas that I did have large pores making them less visible when my foundation was one. However I still had a problem with dry/flaky skin in some areas.

I have to say though it made my skin feel amazingly soft and smooth.

Tips: Only use a small bit as it does go a long way!

A great cheap primer

This is the first e.l.f product I've used and I'm glad to say I loved it.

It has the same finish as my smashbox primer - almost powdery finish. I couldn't help but touch my face afterwards (as I normally would with any good primer)

It didn't do much in terms of reducing pore size. Nor did I find my makeup lasting as long as it normally would - but it wasn't far off!

I have extreme combo skin and my oily T-Zone was much the same as it normally is and same with my dry patches. So in terms of combating these issues, I would say this doesn't help at all.

I can and will say however, that I love the PRICE! I mean.... $76 compared to $6!? Seriously good.

On lazy days I will use this primer instead of my ultra expensive smashbox one. It's nice to have this when you don't want to run out of the good stuff so quickly!

e.l.f Mineral Infused Primer

I'm very much on the fence with this one. I didn't hate it, but it didn't really impress me either.

As has been mentioned in other reviews, the packaging is a bit of a trick and there's actually a very small amount of it in the tube. I didn't read the capacity when I ordered it though and it was very cheap, so I have no real complaints there. It may be something for others to bear in mind though. I liked the style of pump dispenser for limited waste of product.

This primer has a really nice, refreshing scent to it and it glided on smoothly. It didn't feel too slimy and left the surface of my skin feeling very smooth in preparation for makeup.

The overall finish at first felt and looked very flawless with my regular foundation on top but, as the day went on, I don't think my base lasted any better than it normally would. I occasionally skip this step of my makeup routine when I'm in a huge hurry and I honestly don't know for sure whether it made a great deal of difference.

For that reason, I just can't get excited about this one. It hasn't really made a difference for me, for better or worse.

E.L.F Mineral Infused Primer

1 pump and that's all I need for my face and neck. It makes my skin smooth and fills in those little creases so when I put my foundation on it looks even and smooth. I've never used a primer before but this one sure is a good one :)

So affordable!

I have to say that the thing I love most about all elf products is how affordable they are. At only $6 you can't really complain. For the price this primer is great quality. I have the primer in clear and I've found that it has decent coverage, good consistency and gives you a smooth surface when applied. I've tried some high end primers before which are only marginally better and almost 7 or 8 times the price. For anyone looking for an affordable primer that is still really good quality I recommend this range (the colour correcting green one is also fabulous).

Tips: Only need one pump, two pumps at most. You can just use your fingers to spread across you face and still get an even coverage

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.
