Long-Lasting

Moisturizing

Hydrating

Has Shimmer

Looks Natural

Easily Absorbed

Instead of applying it all over your face, I found it works better when you focus on areas where you want that extra glow.

Scent: While the fragrance isn't bad per se, it's quite strong. It's not overly bothersome, but the scent itself reminds me of an old-fashioned floral perfume you'd find in vintage cosmetics. Personally, I'm not a fan.

- Texture: It has a fluid, water-like consistency. It feels like a moisturizing primer. There are also tiny shimmer particles that seem to give your skin a beautiful glow.
- Hydration: It's definitely hydrating, which helps prevent makeup from looking patchy. It would be great for winter use or for those with dry skin.

유니콘 프라이머 [오로라에센스]

- Absolutely no pore-filling effect, it's just like an essence
- As a primer, it scores 1 out of 10

- Feels like makeup applies well on top of it
- The packaging is attractive
- Dispenses easily

Not only is it great to apply before your base makeup, but it's also excellent to use before oil-based sunscreens. Plus, it works wonderfully as an eye primer too!

The only minor drawback might be that it leaves a slight pearlescent residue on your hands, but other than that, it's great!

This product is 10-free from harmful ingredients, has passed low-irritation tests, and contains natural-derived ingredients in a silicone-free primer. It's amazing! It applies like a hydrating serum, and as you spread it, the pearls absorb quickly, feeling just like a regular serum. However, being a primer, it finishes with a fresh feel, leaving your skin incredibly smooth. It seems to refine your skin texture, making it feel like baby-soft skin when you touch it! It's so good that you could even use it instead of serum on busy mornings. The hydration is impressive, keeping your skin from feeling dry while still functioning as an effective primer.

Well... there's nothing really bad, but maybe it leaks a tiny bit? That's slightly disappointing. Still, I encourage everyone to give it a try!

I don't often repurchase cosmetics, but I'm on my third bottle of this product. My skin is acne-prone, oily, yet dehydrated, which usually makes it difficult for base makeup to adhere. However, just 4 drops of this, and my skin improves instantly. It's truly amazing... I recommended it to a friend, and she bought it right away. 1. It allows for a smooth, flawless skin texture. 2. There's no pilling or separation. 3. It gives a subtle, natural glow.

When you absolutely need to use broken eyeshadow, you can mix it with this primer. It's also great for applying on the neck and décolletage area.

There's nothing particularly negative to mention. At first, the pink-toned formula might seem overwhelming, but rest assured it doesn't leave any noticeable color on the skin.

I discovered this while testing various products to mix with broken eyeshadow and foundation. I was even more satisfied when I tried it on my face. The shimmering pearl pigment has a subtle, fine sparkle that's rare in other base products on the market. The pearls don't transfer or stick everywhere. The Aurora Essence Primer creates the optimal skin condition for makeup application. It addresses deep dryness before applying makeup, and unlike other products that can cause pilling or lifting when layered, this primer allows you to reduce the amount of skincare products used. I usually focus on primers at the base stage since silicone types can feel suffocating. With this primer, you can lock in moisture while enhancing base adhesion. It maintains makeup without breakdown or darkening, and its whitening function helps with blemish care, allowing for skincare during the base step. The pink-toned, luminous formula absorbs quickly, leaving a subtle pearl effect that beautifully enhances skin texture. Even with no-foundation makeup, it covers skin texture and wrinkles, especially smoothing out under-eye areas, nasolabial folds, and around the mouth.

None. I haven't repurchased lately since I'm not wearing makeup these days, but when I get back into it, this will absolutely be a must-have item. It's that flawless.

Why isn't everyone using this? I've bought three in different colors and used them all up. My mom even snagged the blue one for herself! I never really understood the hype around base or primer in makeup, but after using this product, I've become a primer devotee. It gives the best Inner Glow and even makes makeup fade beautifully throughout the day. I'm honestly speechless about how good it is. Even though it's pricey, I'll definitely repurchase (I just wish they'd increase the amount a bit...)

Adding just a drop of this to any cushion foundation instantly elevates it to holy grail status. Since wearing masks became the norm, even my go-to foundations weren't cutting it anymore. But this product is like CPR for your makeup! It's so impressive that all my friends have fallen for my rave reviews too.

The scent is a bit artificial... While it doesn't linger once absorbed into the skin, you can smell it during application. Personally, I add a few drops to my cushion foundation and blend it in that way.

It's great to apply this to your skin before makeup, but for a time-saving hack, mixing it with your foundation works wonders too! My skin's been struggling lately due to mask-wearing, and makeup just wouldn't stay put. I bought this after seeing an ad, and it's been a game-changer. Even when other fixers, creams, or all-in-one stick products failed to keep my makeup in place, this essence really locks everything down and gives my skin that perfect, plump finish.

If I had to point out a downside, it would be that it tends to slip a bit, which can be slightly inconvenient.

The 30ml size is adorably small! This primer is absolutely gorgeous with its pink pearl finish, giving it an ethereal look. I've never seen a primer with color and shimmer like this before, so I was initially skeptical about its effectiveness. But once applied, the pink hue gives a natural look to the skin, and the glow adds a lovely vitality to the complexion. Unlike most cream-based primers I've seen, the Unicorn Primer has a liquid consistency. You can use the dropper to dispense just the right amount, one drop at a time. The scent is reminiscent of men's skincare products, but milder. As we know, primers are meant to smooth out skin texture and pores, enhancing the overall appearance of makeup. After using this primer, I noticed improved adherence and longevity of my makeup, which is fantastic. The Unicorn Primer is versatile - it can be used as an eye primer, lip primer, and more, supposedly intensifying color payoff. I tried it as a lip primer, and I loved how it moisturized my lips while making my lipstick more vibrant and long-lasting. Its hydrating complex helps combat deep dryness, keeping the skin moisturized for hours. Plus, it has brightening properties that can help with blemishes!

It spreads well even with a small amount, so don't use a full dropper each time! Otherwise, you'll go through it really quickly. It seems to work particularly well with semi-matte foundations. For reference, my skin type is combination dehydrated skin.

It's a bit pricey and the amount is on the smaller side, so I tried switching to a similar but cheaper alternative. However, it just doesn't seem to match up to this one. The dropper-style packaging with an opaque bottle makes it hard to check how much is left, and sometimes more product comes out when you tilt it, making it difficult to use up the last bits. That's a bit disappointing.

Great for when you want your makeup to last longer! After applying this and then foundation, you can definitely feel the improved longevity. I'm not sure about the glow (I don't really want that anyway, haha), but I use a semi-matte foundation and it seems to pair especially well with this product.

If you're not a fan of floral scents, you might find the initial fragrance a bit off-putting.

Unlike other primers, this one doesn't feel like it's clogging my pores. It gives a beautiful glow that I'm really happy with. It was perfect for use during fall and winter.

I think I'll need to use this alongside a pore-minimizing primer for best results.

When used with a moisturizing foundation, there's a slight darkening effect and it tends to settle into the creases around my nose. It also accentuates pores. I haven't tried it with other foundations, so I'm not sure if this is a universal issue. The longevity seems to vary depending on my skin's condition.

My skin is dry, and I usually feel parched a few hours after applying makeup. But with this primer, I don't even think about dryness. It keeps my skin feeling hydrated throughout the day.
