Can be used as a substitute for sunscreen. If you apply generously, it gives your face a nice glow. The texture is quite fluid. It's on the pricey side, and I'm not sure how well it performs as a pore primer. - se******Dry SkinSensitive SkinMay 7, 2024
Absorbs smoothly and provides full coverage with just a small amount! Although pricey, it seems like it will last a long time. The SPF and PA ratings make it a potential sunscreen substitute. I bought this because it was said to pair well with Double Wear, but it actually made the foundation pill and float on my skin. Upon reflection, I think its high oil content caused my makeup to smudge and slide off. Double Wear alone seems to have better adherence and longevity. Disappointing product. - he********Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedFeb 29, 2024
I have combination skin leaning towards oily with large pores. Usually, by afternoon, foundation tends to settle into my pores, mixing with sebum. Even after using a mist to calm my skin, the pore-settling issue returns within a couple of hours. I've tried most primers out there. I received this as a gratis with a foundation purchase and it had been sitting unused. I decided to give it a try one day. You must shake it well before applying. The texture is almost like a toner. Unlike other primers I've used, which were thick and creamy and seemed to fill in pores before foundation application, this one is very liquid. I was skeptical about its pore-covering ability. However, after applying it mainly to my T-zone and other oily areas like chin and nose, my foundation stayed put without settling into pores until the end of the workday. It seems to control sebum effectively, though it might not suit dry skin types. I'm very satisfied with this - it's one of the best primers I've used so far. I'll likely purchase the full size when this runs out. I just hope it doesn't get discontinued! You need to shake it before use, and the opaque container means you can't see how much product is left. The cap is tight and difficult to open. Also, the glossy cap shows fingerprints easily. Since it's a primer that really controls sebum, you should probably apply a thorough skincare routine beforehand. I applied a very thin layer after my sunscreen, then followed with foundation. - qn******Combination SkinSensitive SkinInner DrynessSep 26, 2023
Moisturizing application This hydrating base helps those with dry skin use matte foundations. It's incredibly moisturizing and feels refreshing! Pink-toned brightening base Naturally brightens your complexion by about one and a half shades. It's great because it doesn't just make you pale, but gives a natural pink glow. Rich texture While I liked it for my dry skin, I'm not sure about others. And I can't help but think this effect could easily be achieved with other sunscreens... After applying, use a puff to smooth out any excess. It creates a much cleaner finish, toning down the shine for an ideal base to apply makeup! - 20******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessMar 4, 2023
I have combination dehydrated skin that's super sensitive and prone to redness. My skin is particularly vulnerable to oils, heavy moisturizers, strong vitamin ingredients, and alcohol. Pores are my biggest concern. I usually avoid sunscreen due to blemishes from certain ingredients. The subtle fragrance is lovely. It creates a perfect canvas for foundation application. However, apart from that, there don't seem to be many positives. The overly matte finish feels a bit heavy on the skin. Also, the ingredients list is quite disappointing. - yu****Dry SkinAtopic SkinRecommendedFeb 23, 2023
I used this before applying Double Wear foundation, and I love how it absorbs well and prevents dryness. These days, I sometimes go out wearing just this. The only downside is that you don't get much product for the price. Other than that, I can't find any faults. - bo**********Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedDec 30, 2022
It's packed with hydration and absorbs well, making it perfect for winter use It's too rich and greasy, so I can't use it outside of winter - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinOct 11, 2022
When I use Double Wear foundation alone, my face feels like it might crack from dryness. But when I pair it with this primer, the dryness is noticeably reduced. However, whenever I apply makeup, I get blemishes. Since I didn't have any issues when I used Double Wear foundation alone before, I suspect it's because of the primer. Sadly, I can't use it anymore due to the skin troubles it causes. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJul 15, 2022
- Empty bottle alert! - Perfect partner for Double Wear, allowing you to adjust its consistency, application, and coverage when mixed - A ray of hope for Double Wear's dryness and cracking issues - Can double as a sunscreen - A product that always makes your skin look flawless - Fills in the gaps left by skincare and preps skin perfectly for makeup - Helps foundation adhere seamlessly and prevents it from looking cakey - Has a subtle glow that gives the illusion of natural skin luminosity Small size and price point Still, I always stock up during sales and consistently end up with empty bottles I use it slightly differently depending on the season. In summer, I apply it all over my face before foundation as a sunscreen alternative. In drier autumn and winter months, I mix it with foundation to create a more fluid consistency. True to its name as a primer, it fills in pores and creates an ideal canvas for foundation application. Just yesterday, I finished a bottle, and today I opened the plastic regulator and even scraped out the mixing ball to use every last drop. I've already opened a new one I had in stock - it's truly my holy grail, a product I've settled on for good. - ju********Dry SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedJul 1, 2022
When applied before foundation, it leaves the skin moisturized and creates a smooth finish Don't expect much in terms of brightening effects. It has a consistency similar to sunscreen
