“I received this product complementary of Influenster for testing purposes. I LOVE this primer. I have combination skin and have found that primers and my skin just don’t mix well”
Colored Primers
“This primer does great job covering the pores and making the flawless application of the foundation, but it still feels like my skin can breathe with it and I think for this price it’s a very great primer and can be better even then some expensive primers”
Green Primer
“I've found that green toned primers tend to help combat any facial redness, which is crucial for me as someone with very fair skin”
Luminous Primers
“It's not too greasy or too highlighting, something I've not liked about most newer primers. Sometimes you just need a primer that does what it says on the tin without making your face look like a disco ball”
Luxury Primers
“So that the foundation would not move. I don’t think this primer is anything cray in my opinion I’ve used primers that are cheaper and work better, I expected a little more from a high end luxury brand”
Purple Face Primers
“I normally do not like mattifying primers since I have normal to dry type skin, but this primer really just controlled the natural oil of my face and instead allowed me to intentionally highlight areas”
Primers For Pores
“Best primer I’ve ever used! I have combo/oily skin, and this primer is magic for any foundation”
Blurring Primers
“Great blurring primer! I usually do not like mattifying/blurring primers but this one is very different from other primers”
Powder Primers
“I got this primer and Fenty pro filter foundation together and the first time I used it with the Huda beauty powder absolute gorgeous and smooth but now its been a week and I feel like it makes me crack on my chin kinda of but I cant tell if the primer is drying my skin or the foundation or powder, I also have combination skin but more on the oily side but overall smells great and feels nice”
Vitamin B Primers
“I haven’t yet tried this but I love love love the ingredients! The vitamin b, c, and e combo is something I don’t see often and I also love that it has HA”
