I was originally using another brand's brightening moisturizer, but it wasn't great for my skin texture. So, I decided to switch to the famous Banila Co primer. I was a bit skeptical at first, but it turned out to be amazing! It doesn't dry out my skin, doesn't accentuate dead skin cells, and doesn't irritate my skin at all. I'm really satisfied with this product - it's truly a holy grail... Just look at my skin in the last photo - it speaks for itself! Without the primer (using only skincare, no other brand's primer), my blemishes and acne scars were surrounded by noticeable dead skin cells. My concealer was all patchy and it was a mess. But as soon as I used this, my skin improved dramatically. Highly recommended, especially for those with dry skin!
ConsThe only downside is that it's a bit tricky to control the amount at first, but you'll get the hang of it with practice!
TipMany people say to use primer before sunscreen if it's a sunscreen that leaves a white cast, and after sunscreen if it doesn't. But honestly, I think primer should always go on first, regardless of the type of sunscreen. It helps your makeup adhere better that way!

While it doesn't completely tackle dead skin cells, it does help makeup apply smoothly on dry areas. It's not bad at all - actually quite good!
ConsThe only downside is that the price is a bit steep. The quantity is decent though, and since you only need to use a small amount, it should last a while.

When applied to dry areas, it creates a flawless, hydrated makeup look without any patchiness. 2. The pump dispenser is hygienic and convenient for on-the-go use. 3. You can visibly see the hydration boost after application. 4. It maintains moisture for a long time without any feeling of tightness.
Cons1. While it's fine for winter and seasonal changes, it can feel a bit heavy in summer due to its oil content. 2. The price is somewhat steep considering the amount you get. 3. It's not quite effective enough to be called a blemish-covering primer.

It also tackles deep dryness, reducing the appearance of dead skin cells.
ConsThe adherence isn't particularly impressive. Perhaps due to excessive sweating in summer, it tends to lift off after a while...

The absorption is nice, and while it's not dramatically different, I love how it makes my skin feel ready for makeup!
ConsThe staying power was a bit disappointing for me... Other than that, I didn't have any particular complaints.

It's not too rich, but rather a lightweight hydrating primer. I bought it because my matte cushion was too drying, and they work great together. If you find your matte cushion at home too drying, this product is worth trying.
ConsThere's a slight brightening effect...? But I didn't really see it as a drawback. It's not a white cast, just a subtle evening of the skin tone.
TipGently massage before applying matte cushion

But when I apply a small amount of this, rubbing it in before applying foundation, it prevents flaking and covers pores well. I checked 12 hours after application, and my makeup hadn't broken down much.
ConsThe only downside is that it's quite thick, giving a slight silicone-like feeling when applied.
TipIt removes easily with cleansing oil!

It makes my dry skin feel smooth and supple, helping to tame dead skin cells and creating a perfect canvas for makeup. I'm really impressed with how well it works.
ConsSo far, I haven't found anything to complain about. It's been great!

This made it difficult to use drying primers. I was thrilled to find this product with great reviews for being a hydrating primer. As expected from a moisturizing formula, it applies lightly and doesn't have that intense coating feeling typical of primers. It provides decent pore coverage, which I appreciate, and it pairs well with other foundations, BB creams, or cushions.
ConsI'm slightly disappointed with its pore coverage and longevity. It definitely doesn't cover as well as the more solid, balm-type primers. However, I think it's a great option for those who find traditional primers too drying on their skin.
TipWith primers, it's all about controlling the amount you use! While you can use a bit more of this compared to thicker primers, I still recommend applying it sparingly.

With all the mask-wearing, my pores were becoming more noticeable, so I needed a primer. But I was worried about dryness. This one provides hydration without being drying, which is fantastic!
ConsWhile the hydration is great, it falls a bit short in its role as a pore-minimizing primer.
