    I like the texture and the quality. Works well. I wouldn't recommend getting it shipped though because it got roughed up in shipping and wasn't in its package when it arrived and was a bit scuffed up.

    I bought this in hopes that it would truly mattify my skin, and I was left with oilier skin than I started with. The plus side is you can use it as a moisturizer instead of a primer. So it’s not all bad. I just wish it would have been a holy grail product.

    This primer in combination with the power grip setting spray is the best way to avoid dry and patchy under eyes. I’ve been using retinol witch makes my skin really dry. Only this combo does not emphasise the dry texture under my eyes

    Always gotta use this on the pores around my nose. Definitely smooths them out and doesn’t feel too slippery. I can even use under my eyes for those fine lines. Paired with the halo loose setting powder. Flawless. No creasing.
