I have fallen in love with this product as well as the eye primer. I went to Ulta in search for a new foundation because I thought that my Tarte, powder foundation couldn't handle sweat (I walk a mile to and from my office in Florida) because it would embed in creases and looked horrible. Boy was I wrong! I asked an employee to recommend a new foundation that would work better for sweat, oily, and acne prone skin. She told me that my current foundation is what she would recommend, but that I should you a primer. I must confess, I thought she was a bit crazy, but now I am a BELIEVER in the wonder that is Photo Finish Primer. How I use it and what I use it with: I cleansed and moisturized my face, applied the primer with my fingertips, applied my foundation (Tarte Airbrush full coverage), blush, and Tarte Smooth Operator (this likely contributed to my good experience). I went about my day, including the gym where I SWEAT WATERFALLS down my face. When I got to my car and looked in the mirror, I was in shock to see that my makeup was still fairly FLAWLESS! After all of the sweat my face had less of a matte finish and more of a dewy finish, but my personal results have been amazing. If anything changes I will update this review.Most Helpful Critical ReviewNot for Oily SkinThis is the worst primer I have ever used. I have an oily tzone, makeup slides off my nose very easily. I use Estee Lauder's Doublewear makeup and needed something to prime with. Previously, I had been using Benefit's Porefessional, which is decent for dabbing on problem pore areas. I bought sample of the smashbox primer, because everyone raved about it on Youtube. I found it applied fine and made makeup apply smoothly. BUT It actually descreased the wear time I got from my Doublewear. My nose was an oil slick by 3 hours in the work day. It also caused me to break out around my chin. I never break out and I'm not too sensitive to products, but this did cause small bumps to pop up. I have found a primer that works, however. Loreal's Infalliable Setting spray is a dream. Spritz before makeup, apply face, spritz again. Done! It leaves your skin looking doll like, a plus for my heavy coverage makeup. It also set my nose makeup perfectly. No sliding.Reviewed by 1647 customersBest primer!!5Ulta friend from York, PAThis is the best primer! Glides in skin smoothly and feels silky. Not greasy or heavy. Have tried many, but this is my favorite!Mixed Feelings2Acirem from Oswego, ILI use this primer all the time and absolutely love it. I recently ran out and bought a new one. For some reason it's super liquidity than the first one I had (the first one had great consistency and never felt oily) and feels oily on my skin. I hope they didn't change the formal. I might have to take this back and get a new one 😒😞Best primer ever5Monkey19 from Youngstown OhioThis primer is fabulous. I've never used primer before but I got a very tiny sample and just started using it and my makeup looks so much better- smoother and more even tone. I only have to use a very small amount of foundation with this primer. I bought a tube of it and my makeup lasts all day plus. Sometimes I hate to take it off at night because it still looks so nice! LolNot for all foundations3👉🏼👈🏼 from OkcIt's either really great or the worst depending on which foundation you pair it withTERRIBLE1T from Missourimakes your foundation and everything else slide off and look streakyI bought 2 and I'm happy I did!5Lupy from SeattleGoes on sooo smooth.

There isn't another that I have tried that was worth the cost.I would buy it again but this time the full size5Laura from Salina ksI like the way my makeup looksI tried it and i like like it5Mimi from FloridaI am just starting to use a primer so I have nothing to compare it to. I sweat at work so today will be the real test.Best Primer for Oily Skin5Lauren from PerrysburgI have never found a primer that smooths and blurs my skin like this one. When I don't wear makeup, it keeps me from being shiny and acts like a filter over my skin. When I do wear makeup, it goes in noticeably smoother and stays matte longer than before I used this primer. I will never use another primer in my life.
