Revlon primer

This is the third primer I have tried and I will definitely be buying it again. I have super oily skin and this product has really helped with keeping the shine away. My face still gets a bit shiny by the afternoon and I still touch up with powder. I have wasted my money on other expensive primers, which by lunch time feel like my make up is going to slide off my face. Its not a heavy product and feels lovely to apply to the face. The downside is the packaging which I see a lot of people are not happy with, the pump must not be long enough and when you get to a certain point in the bottle it no longer works.

Tips: Try to leave on for at least 5 minutes before applying foundation if you have the time.

Revlon - excellent primer!

I absolutely love this primer. The easy to use pump bottle makes it easy to get the right amount. Half a pump is usually enough to do my whole face and it is super easy to apply. The bottle is about the same size as a foundation bottle so lasts a long time. This glides on silky smooth and fills in any large pores and little acne scares I have on my cheeks. This really helps keep my makeup looking fresh and lasting all day!

Tips: If you have red patches of skin go for the colour correcting primer. Use half a pump only and blend it in fast so it doesn't dry before your done. Make sure you leave it a minute or two before applying foundation.

A game change!

I tried this product a few years ago, and to be honest, I wasn't a fan. I didn't help with my application and longevity of my foundation. Recently I was given a sample to try, immediately realizing what I was missing out on. It filled my pores, evened texture and gave extremely smooth skin texture. The application of my foundation has improved and the finish almost looks photoshopped. My foundation also lasted all day, which is something I previously had trouble with. I will definitely be continuing to use this primer.

Tips: I prefer to warm the product in my hands before I apply it.

My everyday primer

I use this everyday under the Revlon photoready foundation. It is a nice smooth texture and I find that it helps my foundation glide over dry patches and not go cakey on my face. However when I used this with another brand foundation it did not do what it is supposed to.

Tips: Use with the rest of the Revlon photoready line.

Wish I found this earlier

Wow, I read reviews in primers last week and purchased this product. It goes on easily and you only need to use a little. My Photoready foundation lasted all day and looks perfect still.I would definitely purchase this again and recommend it to others.

It's good

I've found this to be a pretty stock standard primer. It doesn't do anything AMAZING, but it definitely smooths my skin to create a nice canvas for foundation. I like that it isn't shimmery like other primers so it's great for every day makeup

Tips: It goops up at the start of the pump pretty quick so make sure you wipe it with a tissue or baby wipe after each use.

Love love love! Does everything it says it does!

My go to primer! It goes on smoothly and minimizes pores. It leaves a very smooth base for applying foundation and concealer. Sometimes I apply just primer and concealer, as I feel it looks really nice by itself! It is quite a big bottle, and will last for ages as you don't need to use a lot.

Tips: Apply with fingers

Revlon Photoready perfecting primer

I've been using this for a week and it's great.. It really does stop my makeup falling off my face during the day and it does create a smooth surface to apply makeup. Also stops my skin going so greasy during the day. Love the hygienic glass pump it comes in too.

Tips: Only slightly annoying thing is it goes a bit lumpy and bitsy if you don't rub it in quickly.. Also leaves a residue on your fingertips. Only things otherwise it's great!

Light and completes the smooth look

Ive purchased this the last three times Ive needed primer. Firstly from Farmers store then from Splash store on Trademe for alot cheaper. Ive love firstly the pump lid for quick mess free application (until i get to the end and cant get the last of it out) It applys on very smooth and lightweight so much so i cant feel i have even applied it at all. It pumps out white but rubs and absorbs into skin clear. There really isnt any drying/absorbing time required before starting to apply foundation or concealer. I definitley notice that my foundation glides on much easier when i use this primer and i have a nice smooth finish. It also helps my makeup to stay on longer through the day even after training at the gym. I do however generally keep this primer away from any fine lines around my eyes as it seems to make them worse in appearnce

Overall if purchased cheaply i think it is a great primer that really helps give a smooth look after foubdation and would reccomend to friends
