EXCELLENT PRIMER that you need to try!

I have been loving the Rare Beauty collection, So I had to try this. It's a silicone formula that just melts into the skin like butter down to a mattifying finish.

Makes parts of skin red

When i first put this on I thought I just rubbed my skin too much and thats why there was a red patch on both of my cheeks. However i've used it since and it keeps happening. It doesnt hurt or anything, but I just use a tinted moisturizer so it doesn't completely cover up the redness. Other than that the product works great, but be cautious if you have sensitive skin.
