저는 파운데이션이 너무 어둡게 느껴질 때는 프라이머 소량을 섞어서 쓰기도 하는데, 그럼 딱 원하는 밝기로 조절돼서 좋더라고요.

건조한 피부라면 수분크림을 듬뿍 바른 뒤에 사용하는 걸 추천해요. 안 그러면 조금 건조하게 무너질 수 있어요. 그리고 자외선 차단 기능은 따로 없어서, 선크림은 꼭 먼저 발라주세요!

프라이머+톤업 베이스 역할을 동시에 해줘서, 따로 톤업 크림을 바를 필요가 없어서 간편했어요. 핑크빛 제형인데 피부에 바르면 과하지 않고 자연스럽게 얼굴이 화사해져서 좋았어요. 딱 한 톤 밝아지면서 모공이 살짝 블러 처리된 느낌이랄까요?

무엇보다 발림성이 너무 가벼워서 부담이 없어요. 피부에 촉촉하게 밀착되면서도 마무리는 보송보송! 덕분에 화장도 더 잘 먹는 느낌이라 기분 좋았어요.

프라임 프라이머 톤업

I honestly can't find any drawbacks to this product - it's truly exceptional! It pairs exceptionally well with Banila Co cushions in particular. If I had to nitpick, I'd say its performance with other cushions isn't quite as flawless, but it's still 99% perfect. With Banila Co, it's absolute perfection.

For those with oily skin and large pores, this primer makes a remarkable difference in both the longevity and overall appearance of your complexion. The contrast between using and not using it is so noticeable that on days when I accidentally skip it, I find myself removing my cushion foundation and starting over - it's that impactful!

To minimize the drying effect, try layering your skincare before applying the primer. Use multiple layers of toner and serum to create a hydrated base, then apply a thin layer of primer. This should help reduce the dry, flaky appearance.

Unfortunately, this product made my skin feel dry, causing my makeup to separate and leave a white cast. It was quite disappointing for me. I have combination dehydrated skin, so if I had this experience, I absolutely wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin.

A budget-friendly, reliable primer!
I bought this product in a hurry, as my skin was looking dull and my overall complexion had darkened. I wanted something to brighten my skin tone. This primer is affordable and easy to use - a solid choice!

Those who have not been able to purchase tone-up cream for their dull and uneven skin should definitely try it once!
If you want to go out with a bare face, just apply this, and if you want to add more, you can layer it with foundation and concealer, so it's really great!

I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly, but do you all know about the sliding that happens even when applying it properly? I usually apply it with a cushion, but it keeps sliding off ㅠㅠ And my chin sometimes gets red and inflamed, like a skin rash, and when I put on makeup, it all comes off. This product seems to do that occasionally ㅠㅠ! That's a bit disappointing.

Occasionally, when applying a tone-up cream, it can end up looking blotchy and uneven, which many of us have experienced. 
As for me, my skin is acne-prone with a lot of scarring, so the issue was even more pronounced. However, I came across this product and felt an urge to try it, and I'm truly delighted with the results! 💕
It applies evenly without any blotchiness. The coverage is adequate, though it may struggle with dark circles or large acne. 
I'm extremely satisfied with this product and I'm so glad I discovered it - it's been a game-changer for me.

It makes your skin look so polished overall that you can go out without foundation! It's perfect for school drop-offs - just sunscreen and this primer, and you're good to go. It doesn't pill at all. There's hardly any scent, and it worked well for me without causing any blemishes.

The coverage is light, so you'll need concealer if you have many blemishes. I have some dark spots, and due to the sheer coverage, concealer is necessary.

As a mom, I'd forgotten about makeup, but this primer brought me back! At an age where my complexion is dull and pores are a concern, this product is a real lifesaver. The Banila Co Prime Primer Tone Up truly delivers on both 'tone up' and 'primer' in one go. When applied, it naturally brightens the skin while adhering smoothly without any patchiness. It covers pores subtly and keeps makeup from shifting - I'm in love!

On days when your skin feels dry, try using a slightly richer sunscreen than usual before applying the primer. This can improve the overall adherence of your makeup.

I haven't used it long enough to find any drawbacks yet.

After applying sunscreen, I used a tone-up primer followed by Double Wear powder. The result was impressive - no caking and excellent adherence. I was also pleased with how it evened out my complexion.

While it absorbs well when applied with fingers, I prefer using a puff to apply it.

Unfortunately, it doesn't function as a primer at all... I apply a separate primer before using this as a base.

It's excellent for brightening the complexion. I'm really enjoying using it. It doesn't cause makeup to cake, and it works great as a base. I often use it on its own too.

Since it doesn't completely cover pores, it's best to apply foundation as thinly as possible even after using this as a primer.

I bought both the original and the brightening moisturizer, and the brightening one definitely gives a more radiant look. It's not a dewy finish, but rather a natural tone-up that brightens your complexion by just one shade.

The complexion might be a bit too light? It gives a slightly artificial look, unfortunately.

The brightening effect is absolutely fantastic! It also does an excellent job of concealing pores.

It tends to pill slightly and feels a bit heavy on the skin. I'm not sure if it actually fills in pores

Though the concept of a brightening primer is unfamiliar, it effectively evens out the complexion

I recommend applying a thin layer using a spatula for best results.

I bought this hoping it would prevent darkening, but unfortunately, darkening still occurs inevitably.

The pink tone provides a brightening effect, giving the complexion a lift. It also slightly fills in pores, creating a smoother appearance.
