My favourite drugstore primer.

I am not much an ELF fan as their products always makes me break out; but when I tried the ELF Mineral Infused Face Primer, it instantly made me fall in love with this product. I have the green one "Tone Adjusting Green", it evens out my skin tone and covers up most of my redness which I usually have around my nose. When I apply foundation or BB cream, it always goes on smoothly. I have oily skin and this primer doesn't make my face oily, it can last up to 8 hours and I am very impressed! One downside is, this primer smells like petrol.

Is the petrol smell very obvious? I wouldnt want to walk around smelling like a gas station.

Not bad average range primer

This primer for me is perfect everyday primer, when all you are asking of your make up is to make it through the work day and nothing more. Its not the best primer I have used but it definitely shines for the price you pay for it.

It does what you want a primer to do, it smooths your face in prep for foundation or BB cream and evens out the skin, it also has helped with the mega shine issue that seems to plague my forehead no matter what I use, but the primer has reduced its effects wonderfully.

Neat little bottle that is clear so you can see when you are nearly at the bottom. Only downfall was the lid, after the initial opening it never stayed on again!! but being a pump action bottle doesn't cause too many issues as it doesn't leak all over the place.

Affordable, Every Day Primer

I swear by Napolean Perdis Auto Pilot primer but have been searching for something cheaper & more affordable for every day wear, I stumbled across this on iherb.com I have quite oily skin so was surprised to find this actually goes the distance on my face- I do give it a couple of minutes after applying to let it set before I pop my foundation on though. If you're after something cheap & cheerful for everyday then I'd definitely recommend this... Even if you have oily skin!

Tips: Once you've applied it, give it a few minutes to kind of set before applying your foundation.

e.l.f Mineral Infused Primer

First ever primer that I have ever used so really wasn't sure what to expect and I can't compare to other primers. Like how its a pump but hate that I can't see through the bottle to see how much I've used, is left, you can unscrew to get the last bit out which is great but I want to see through the bottle not have to keep unscrewing it to check how much is left. Now first application, one pump and isn't it silky, wasn't sure if I'd covered my whole face as it left my finger tips really silky feeling, left a couple minutes then applied foundation, seemed to glide on (I use techniques sponge) actually felt like my foundation was sitting better and noticed that it looked great all day without having to add powder. I've also used under my BB cream its become a regular part of my beauty routine.

My first primer

I bought this as a part of my iherb E.L.F. haul on a whim. I never really use a primer - you could say my makeup routine is rather basic (but quick which is great in the morning)!

First of all, I must say I love E.L.F. LOVE. I am a major bargain hunter and I think that this is one of the best brands for the price. That being said, there are exceptions of course but that is a case for another review.

For someone having never used a primer before I must say I didn't notice huge differences between using it and not using it. However this product itself is in great packaging - I love the pump bottle as it is less messy than tube products. It feels super super silky when you apply it; almost feels like you have powder on your fingers. The only issue with this is it is difficult to tell whether you have spread it over your entire face. I let it dry before applying my foundation and bam, done.

I don't think it smoothed out my face - but then again this could just be me (I do have some scarring that this product didn't help hide). I think my makeup may have lasted a little longer than usual but not so much so that I noticed a huge difference. The best part is that it made applying foundation so much smoother and it is mainly that reason that I would recommend this product and that I keep using it.

So overall, a good product. I wouldn't say it is a miracle product but this just may simply be my troublesome skin. It is super silky and nice to apply and makes putting on makeup that little bit easier. Nicely done again E.L.F!

Tips: Let it set before applying foundation!

Bargain and feels like silk!

One of the first primers I used and still continue to use on a daily basis. While there are two more high end primers I like, I save those for special occassions or long nights. This is fa for every day use-feels like silk, makes your skin smooth and a great base. A must for beginners or people on a budget-great value for money. Am interested to see what their other primers are like!

Smashbox dupe!

Wow wow wow wow. I am seriously in love with this face primer! For the affordability of it, I can say I am highly impressed! This is a clear primer, with a very much silicone feel. (if you love a good silicone feel base before any foundation like i do, genuinely buy this!) Only one pump of this primer is all I need to be able to cover the entirety of my face! I believe it makes a clear and smooth base for my foundation and enables it to stay on all day! It is a great dupe for the smashbox primer and for less than half the price I would advise you to try it out! I love this elf primer, along with the green based one!

Tips: Apply 5-10 mins before applying on foundation for a smooth and flawless base!

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

Great cheap product that works really well

This was my first ever primer I had purchase and think that it is definitely a winner. I have tried other primers by Rimmel but for the price the Elf primer wins hands down. I only need to use one pump and that is enough to cover my face, it leaves my face feeling very smooth and silky which helps my make up apply and look more flawless. I'm not sure how well it des on keeping your make up looking good all day but is very good to make our face smooth for your foundation. $6 off iHerb or $10 from Kmart so it is very affordable.

Tips: The whole container isn't actually filled with product in case your wondering why it runs out quite quickly. There is a gap between the container and what the product is actually in.

Elf primer

This primer is a really great primer, and for the price you can't go wrong, although there isn't as much in there as it looks you don't real need to much for it to do its job, once I've put this on my face is so smooth and makes my makeup glide on just nicely, I highly recommend people to give it a go it's defiantly a great primer
