e.l.f Mineral Infused Primer

This primer is really average. There's not much in it at all. It did make my skin very smooth and supple so I only wear it when I wear no makeup around the house. I use it with my double wear foundation and it makes my foundation slip right off my tzone.

I have never used a primer before, so I tried the e.l.f primer as a starter because of the price (only $6). The gel feels like silicone and I use only one pump to cover my whole face.

The primer makes my face really smooth (seriously like silk) and makes applying pressed powder a lot easier e.g. it spreads across my face more smoothly and evenly. It also makes my powder last a lot longer during the day.

I started using the primer with BB Cream and pressed powder. But I feel like it's a bit much with the BB cream as well, so I use the primer with powder when I am going for a more natural look.

Unfortunately I am not a fan of the smell (chemically) but that is covered up by the smell of pressed powder/foundation. I also don't really think it helps with enlarged pores and fine lines.

But for the price, it is definitely worth it if you are just looking to make applying makeup easier and make it last longer.

I was expecting great things from this primer but it really let me down. I have quite dry skin, and very crepey under my eyes, so I was hoping this primer would allow my concealer (I don't wear foundation) to glide on smoothly and help fill some of the lines so I'd get better coverage out of my concealer. Unfortunately it did none of those things. The silicone base was very off-putting too - it FELT smoothing, but didn't LOOK smoothing (if that makes any sense?). In any case, I moved onto another primer after only using it for a few days. I gave this one to my teenage daughter (combination skin, prone to break-outs) and she loves it! At least one of us is happy :-)

I bought this as my first primer purchase, because I'm not entirely sure what the product was meant to do, and also not convinced I needed it.

It goes on lovely and smooth and your skin feels quite silky with it on. Makeup went on quite well over top too. Didn't feel any different than without primer, but assumed it would help the makeup hold a little longer. I can't say I noticed my skin looking any better, or lines looking less noticeable. It was just okay.

For the money spent it was hard to be disappointed but it didn't sell me on the whole primer idea.

I have the clear and the colour correcting green for when Im getting a bit of redness, I have quite dry skin and this helps give my skin the extra pep it needs.

For the price this is a good product The primer is a gel cosistency, but quite light in feeling, the texture is very smooth, but it sinks in quite quickly

My make up applies more evenly especially on my nose and forehead which are my driest areas, even my mineral make up goes on alot better too

I found that by the afternoon, my makeup looked as if it was sliding of my nose and was a little patchy and I needed to reapply my foundation, so will need a good setting powder over the top

This is not my favourite primer (as I own a few) but it is definitely good. It is so inexpensive so it is great for those on a budget. It makes my skin sooo smooth and makes a great base for my foundation, which glides over the top of it. I don't find that this breaks me out at all either, which I have had happen with some other primers. It definitely did help my foundation last longer as well!

e.l.f products are always a bit hit and miss with me. Their product packaging is generally quite cheap and nasty, and the products themselves are often pretty low quality. However I can't say the above about this primer because it actually does quite a good job. I have found it minimizes pores and when paired with the rest of my makeup routine, my makeup is actually lasting all day right now and that makes me excited.

Love this primer it is so light weight and feels really soft on. Makes it easier to apply foundation on top off. Isnt sticky or clumpy. Best drug store cheap primer ive tried.

In the interest of full disclosure I should probably admit that before this I was a primer virgin! But I really love this product! I just use a tiny amount and my skin feels so silky and smooth. Foundation goes on perfectly over the primer with no wait time and my make up looks so much better for so much longer! The price is good, it is easy to dispense, you don't need much and damn does it work well. Love, love, love.

A friend and were surfing online stores and we came across this mineral infused primer, I have recently decided to use make up almost daily, so usually when I put on make up I do not use a primer, although now, after using this wonderful product I can not understand how I could have worn my make up without it. My make up now stays on longer and the colour is longer-lasting. I have received more compliments on how flawless my make up looks. I tell everyone who asks how I get that incredible result.
