Most Helpful Positive Review Everything I need in a primer! Love this and I can never find anything that doesn't irritate my skin or make my eyes water. It's soothing for my dry skin, protects with SPF, and prepares my skin to make my foundation last all day. I'm a 55+ and this is a great product that makes you look younger and refreshed without looking made up. Love it!!
Most Helpful Critical Review Great primer but read below! So this primer is really good. However I couldn't give it a five star review, because something in this primer really burns my eyes. It goes on smooth, smells really good, and makes your skin feel super hydrated. Foundation really sits well on top of this primer. No viable patchy dry spots after use, and believe me I have dry skin. So this foundation is great for both oily or dry skin. However after I let it sit on my skin my eyes started to burn so bad that I physically had to take it off. I took it off, and washed my face and then reapplied making sure not to get it near my eyes. Well its started to burn them badly again. I'm not sensitive to anything so this was really strange. I would say if it wasnt for the burning, this primer would have become one of my favorites! I'd say its worth a try before you decide not to use it but beware this can happen.
I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

did not mix well with foundation 3
Bry from Kansas City
I use a light liquid foundation applied with a beauty blender, and it just rolled into little balls when using this primer. It smelled and felt nice, but does not play well with others. returned.
makes foundation pill 2
Figgs from Ohio
I like how this feels on, but I cannot wear it under my foundation because the foundation pills and looks like I'm shedding my skin...such a disappointment. I'm giving it 2 stars b/c I will use on days when I don't wear foundation, but still need spf; it's fine for that.
it's pretty good 4
Marley from Virgina
I like it and it's nice and moisturizing!
Repurchased Many Times! Love it! 5
GinnywithaG from Midwest USA
I have repurchased this 3 or 4 times now. I love it. I have oily skin and this doesn't make it too oily. Great product!
I really like this primer! 4
Luvie99 from Cayman Islands
Love that it creates a smoother, more polished look to my skin while also moisturizing, however the scent is a little strong. Also, if you have oily skin and don't like an oily appearance, this might not be for you OR buy some blotting papers at the same time.
Love it! 5
Talij from MO
I love this primer! I am on my third bottle. I have really dry, REALLY sensitive skin and it works so great! I love that there is SPF in it. On days I don't wear any makeup, I still put this on for the SPF and for the lovely glow it gives my face! It does have a scent, but I like the scent.
Love! 5

I love it!! Its lightweight and I love wearing it both under my makeup or as a stand-alone.
ingredients 2
JL1636 from California
Love how it gave me a nice glow. The application is a little thick. It does smell like your typical sunscreen but I don't mind it. Only thing is it has harmful ingredients. Do your research and know what shouldn't be putting on your face! Will stop using it for that reason.

katie from latham ny
love this. its my 3rd or 4th bottle. works great on its own and under make up. never pills. not too hydrating so my make up slides off. sometimes I even mix it with my full coverage foundation. its a primer. moisterizer and spf in one.
great product but... 2
allie from central valley
i've only been using this product for about a week, at first it was great but now anytime you rub my face it starts to peel. i wash my face before i use the product so i know that it can't be that. i love nyx's products they usually work amazing on my skin but this one was just not it:(
So far I like it but ... 3
Chelzie from Virginia
So far I really like this primer but as mentioned below after 2 hours of having it on it makes my skin really oily. I may have to jump back to the regular primer ...bummer cause I do really like this.
Smells Great. Highly recommend. 5
Beautiful Angel from Tx
Love this primer from Nyx. This primer has a very good scent & feels very pleasant on the face. Make-up looks flawless as well.
I would not recommend or buy again 1
Norma D. from Arizona
It's too greasy and sits on your skin and does not absorb into your skin. I don't like the scent of the product.
my FAVE 5
Jess from Boston
i never like primers. i have adult acne that's mostly cleared up now, but primers have always been a major contributor to my acne. i also knew wearing sunscreen was essential for good skin, but i always felt greasy and gross with it on, and my makeup would never look good over it. this primer takes two things i never liked and made something i love. it makes my makeup apply flawlessly, keeps my skin protected from the sun, and i've even seen an improvement in my skin. it's amazing, I'll definitely keep buying!
No, chemical sunscreen 2
Tquigs from Voorhees, NJ
Excited about trying this since have the foundation & primer. Doesn't mention any chemicals on bad chemical sunscreen list that are bad for you. Get my order, they they are back - all 3 worst chemical sunscreen chemicals that have been found to have negative effects on body. Back it went.
If you hate scented skin care, don't buy. 1
Kate D from Virginia Beach, VA
The primer has a strong scent and makes my skin sting and eye water. Waste of money.
So close to perfection! 4
Ashleynne from Puyallup, WA
I currently have a second bottle on the way. I was in the market to try a different primer and was hoping to eventually grab one that had spf in it. I have oily/acne prone skin and this has been a godsend. Most spf's are greasy and break me out even the lightweight ones. This one does not. I was surprised that my makeup went on so smooth on top of it and how it really extended the wear of my foundation. The only downside really is that it falls short of really smoothing out lines and pores. I go in with another primer to help fill in those troublesome spots. Other then that I truly think this is a great product.
I would use this over and over again 5
Queen lia from LA
I love this because it keeps my makeup on and it also doesn't not break my skin out plus the sph 30 love and this is a must have no cap...
LOVE THIS 5
Sararidesabike from Ft Lauderdale, FL
LOVE this moisturizer/primer. Light scent, absorbs quickly, SPF doesn't leave weird cast.
It's perfect! 5

New HG primer! 5
Rockymtnmermaid from Denver, CO
Lightweight, very moisturizing, calms my redness in my cheeks AND has SPF 30!! Yes please! Makes my foundation go on super smooth. I don't use setting powder, but I do use UD All-nighter setting spray. I do notice a little bit of foundation on my mask after a full work day but IMO it's a small price to pay.
Great 5
ella from tuscaloosa, al
I love this stuff! It moisturizes my face a lot so that it doesn't look weird when I use setting powder and a matte finishing spray. I'm extremely acne prone and have had issues. I like that it contains SPF. It does kind of burn when it gets in your eyes from sweat or swimming so keep that in mind if you frequently do that. I don't.
