As someone sensitive to scents, I personally enjoyed it and appreciated that it wasn't overpowering when applied to the skin. Texture: Being a hydrating primer, it has a nice emulsion-like consistency that applies smoothly, unlike traditional primers. The translucent formula feels lightweight and non-sticky, so makeup doesn't feel heavy on top. It doesn't cause pilling or make your base makeup separate. Moisturizing: It leaves the skin feeling hydrated and supple upon application. Packaging: The outer packaging has a clean, simple design. The pump dispenser makes it easy to use and keeps the product hygienic. Effectiveness: While it doesn't produce dramatic results, it's better than using nothing. I've been using it for months, and I find that makeup adheres better, there's less skin flaking, and it seems to even out my complexion. It also helps maintain hydration, making my skin feel less dry. Personal verdict: While it's better than using nothing, the difference is subtle. If you have a good skincare and base makeup routine, this might not be essential. Considering its effects and price, I'd have to think twice about repurchasing.
ConsLack of dramatic effects: I have dry skin and always struggle with my base makeup (cushion) looking patchy around my eyes and cheeks, and with texture and flakiness around my nose. I bought this primer hoping it would address these issues. However, after applying it to problem areas before my base makeup, I found that it didn't dramatically improve coverage or makeup adherence as I had hoped. Price: Considering the amount you get, it's not particularly affordable or good value for money. While not extremely expensive, it's on the pricier side.
TipTip 1: Banila Co offers various types of primers, so consider your skin type and desired effects when choosing one! Tip 2: Apply this primer after skincare but before sunscreen or makeup. For extra dry areas, try applying a second layer.

The difference between using and not using this primer is huge! After using the primer, the cushion doesn't settle into pores and provides natural-looking coverage. It's moisturizing and absorbs well, so you don't need to use a separate emulsion or cream before makeup. The scent is universally appealing. Personally, I absolutely love the fragrance!
ConsAs I used the product, I noticed that the primer essence(?) and oil started to separate, which was a bit disappointing. Also, since the Prime Primer Hydrating is focused on hydration, it doesn't completely smooth out pores.
TipI think this is an excellent primer when used with a matte cushion foundation! It would be great for those with dry skin types. For those looking for flawless pore coverage, I recommend trying the Banila Co Prime Primer Classic instead.

The fragrance is a subtle, delicate floral scent.
ConsUnfortunately, it doesn't provide pore coverage. If you're looking for a product that can conceal enlarged pores and uneven texture, I highly recommend trying the Banila Co Primer Classic version!
