I did a good job blurring my pores and was a nice base for my makeup but I was expecting more of my redness to be reduced....Would do 3.5 stars if I could. Very good primer and base for your makeup but color correcting didn’t work.

I got a really nice, smooth finish on the skin and the makeup adhered really well. If you can make the yellow tint work, this one's worth a try!...Perfect glowy base!...Glowy primers usually make me nervous (I have combination skin that leans more oily in the summer months) but this didn’t turn me into an oil slick or have my makeup sliding all over the place. I think it gripped my cream products really well and created a nice base for makeup— though there really wasn’t much texture-smoothing.

If I use it sparingly, it smooths my skin and is a nice base for powder makeup. I do not like the effect with cream makeup....The compact itself is simply beautiful, and the product inside is a solid smoothing primer formulated with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide meant to make skin appear smoother and form a seamless base for makeup.

I usually apply this primer after my moisturizer and before I apply my foundation, I love the refreshing feel and texture of this, it feels nice and smooth on my skin without any residue and I love that it gives my makeup a good base without feeling greasy....It gave my skin a smooth, non-oily appearance, and my makeup sat on my skin super nicely with it on.
