This is a multifunctional base makeup product that works as a sunscreen, primer, and makeup base - perfect for use before foundation. It has an opaque, off-white texture typical of regular sunscreens, with a slight coverage that's more about evening out the complexion rather than brightening. When applied, it helps unify uneven skin tones and creates a smooth canvas, preventing foundation from settling into fine lines. There aren't any significant drawbacks, but it can feel a bit heavy when applied around the eyes. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinSep 22, 2024
I tested this at the store before buying and have been using it for about a year now. While it doesn't dramatically brighten your complexion, it evens skin tone nicely and absorbs well. There's no pilling, so even those who aren't makeup pros can apply it easily. It doesn't give an overly shiny finish either. The price is too steep. It's expensive even compared to similar department store products. This is something you should stock up on at duty-free shops. I wish it would neutralize yellow undertones a bit more. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAug 20, 2023
As expected from a famous product, it improves skin texture, brightens the complexion, and effectively covers pores! With improved longevity, it's truly a jack-of-all-trades. There are no downsides, none at all! If I had to nitpick, maybe the price? But that's about it. It's a fantastic combination with the Armani foundation line. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinAug 28, 2020
Natural brightening effect and smooth coverage of pores. Applies thinly and creates a subtle Inner Glow. While the product performance is satisfactory, the main drawback is the small quantity for the price. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinDec 1, 2019
This primer seems to be a perfect match with Armani foundations! I use it with both Luminous and Lasting Silk, and when I apply them over this primer, I can feel them adhering seamlessly to my skin. While it works decently with other brands' foundations too, the compatibility with Armani is simply unbeatable! I love that it provides just the right amount of brightening, eliminating the need for any other base products. And the best part? Even when it starts to wear off, it does so beautifully! The price makes me dizzy... My heart sinks every time I use it, knowing how much it costs. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMar 31, 2019
When squeezed out, the color is a deep purple, but it's so hydrating that when applied, it gives a slight brightening effect and creates a translucent skin appearance! I use it as a hydrating base and I'm on my third tube. My skin is combination dehydrated, and when I use other bases, primers, or correcting products, even with a solid skincare routine, my foundation tends to separate or pill a bitㅠㅠ But when I use this product for my base makeup, it's like second skin? It's not an oily glow or dewy finish, but more of a soft, plump look. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I feel like it even improves the longevity of my makeup! There's not really anything to complain about, but I checked Hwahae and it seems there are 6 ingredients to be cautious of!? I didn't know... However, I've never experienced any blemishes from it. For my skincare routine, since I have combination dehydrated skin, I apply toner and essence generously, then a small amount of emulsion. I skip the cream step, let everything absorb thoroughly, and then apply this product. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinFeb 11, 2019
When applied to yellowish discolored areas, it provides a brightening effect. It doesn't completely cover or conceal, but it naturally evens out the overall complexion! Also, as I have oily skin, I usually struggle with non-matte finish primers, but this one didn't leave an overly oily finish, so it worked well for me. The downside is... well, inevitably the price, right? I'm willing to splurge on their foundation as I feel Georgio Armani's is unparalleled in quality. However, for this primer, I think there are more affordable options from other brands that work just as well. Unless I receive it as a gift or a sample, I probably wouldn't purchase it myself. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinSep 27, 2017
It gives a nice glow and provides a transparent brightening effect. While it's not quite color-correcting, if applied well, it can make your skin look clear and radiant. The shimmer particles are larger than expected and don't blend well with the product. On days when you haven't done thorough skincare, it feels like you've just smeared eyeshadow all over your face. It doesn't work with any base makeup, not even Armani foundation - it causes everything to pill. It leaves your skin looking overly shiny, and after using this, I developed four pustules on my nose, leading to an unpleasant dermatologist visit! This product is only suitable for those with resilient skin.
