I don't wear heavy makeup but do use a color corrector in parts of my face, then some concealer. Do I need to put primer on all of my face, or can I use it for smaller sections?

Use it daily for a blurred, soft-focus effect on your skin—wear it alone or underneath makeup. You don’t need to apply it everywhere; spot prime only where you want smoothing and blurring.Was this answer helpful to you

A Love Story from an Acne Prone Gym Goer
PHOTO: The attached photo is after approximately 12 hours of wear on a naturally oily face, and an extremely sweaty workout. 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 h...

Not for Oily Skin
This 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 sa...

This absolutely lives up to it's name. As soon as you apply it, you immediately see the blur. My makeup does not separare throughout the day and my face isn't as oily.
Covers pores good
I think this works better than IL Makiage's Poreless Base Primer. It helps cover up my pores a lot better.
Smooth and silky not grippy
I have older skin and I have loved this for years. A lot of the younger girls I work with prefer grippy foundation where their foundation sticks to it in a certain way, but this allows me to apply my foundation smoothly and it settles in nicely. I put on my foundation and concealer right after I apply this
didn't do what I expected
I bought this on the recommendation of the salesperson. Went in looking for a foundation that wouldn't settle into my wrinkles and pores. Was sold this, a moisturizer and a tinted moisturizer. Not happy with any of the products. The primer doesn't do anything to fill in the wrinkles/pores. I understand that maybe the wrinkles were too deep but then why did they suggest this? The only good thing is that the lady did sell me a smaller size than the one she originally suggested.
meh
Glad I bought the travel size to try it out before I committed to the full size. I have spent less on Ulta's brand of primer. The quality (and price) are much better. It's just not worth the cost.
