Good for a cheap primer.
This has some hood and bad points. I usually use a 20 pound primer which I tried to purchase similar cheaper. This has the same texture as my expensive one so when people say it's to think that is actually a good thing not bad. You use a tiny amount and spread rather than rub. Use a brush if you have a spare and apply like foundation then tap in. It doesn't fill pores as well as the expensive one but does do a little bit of good so will give that side 3 stars. The main reason I buy expensive is for the matt effect and to stop oil which I get within minutes with a cheap primer thus actually held up but only till lunch so arpund 4 hours of use then it failed me. So I can't say it's bad but I can't say it is good compared to my expensive one. It slightly hides pores, applys really well leaving no sticky residue and dries well, it just doesn't last as long as I need it to. So I give it 5 stars, for a cheap primer it does an amazing job and probably the best cheap one I have used. My skin: acne prone 30 plus year old with large pores and a very oily t - zone (this did not block my pores either)

Smoothing my skin.
Nice satin finish, neutral fragrance. Make up products works well when applied on top of the primer, leaving nice texture. Has been using it for a few weeks now and would definitely recommend it, hasn't caused any breakouts even that my skin is usually problematic and sensitive.

White cast
This product is not transparent as it claims. Although it mattifies the skin, it leaves a white cast which requires more than translucent powder to cover.Disappointing.

Fantastic mattifyer!
I suffer with extremely shiny and greasy skin. This has helped me so much honestly. It's fantastic and well worth the money! Not going to be so stressed during the summer 😁

It's too good to discontinue!!
I have to say I don't review things as often as I should but I had to review this product as I can't believe they are discontinuing it!! I have tried a lot of primers cheap and expensive and I still use this one over all of them. I have an oily skin and this is the only primer that keeps my makeup in place all day. For example I've recently been on a day trip to France when it was over 30 degrees and by the afternoon my friend said to me, how on earth is your makeup still on? I then told her about this primer. Would definitely advise anyone with oily skin to try it.
