Most Helpful Positive Review Wonderful....but please lose the gold flecks First off...this is really more of a SERUM than a primer. This is not going to hold your makeup on like a silicone primer, but it is still pretty amazing. It is full of really fantastic ingredients. Especially Hyaluronic Acid, which helps the skin to absorb and retain moisture, the Portulaca which is anti-inflammatory and calming, collagen, and we love Allantoin, which is very soothing and helps increase water absorption to the skin, and also increases the smoothness of the skin; promotes cell replication and the healing of wounds, burns, and scars. Not to mention all the amazing botanicals. The ONLY thing that bothers me about this is the "gold flecks" . They are just unnecessary and a gimmick that just doesn't make any sense.
Most Helpful Critical Review Not as geat as I was expecting... I will post on my blog with more detail but, this primers just is not for me! I thought it would be amazing because soooo many NYX products are. This formula doesn't seem to be any different whrn it comes to basic priming. The gold flakes are a bit random and not small enough to illuminate the skin. The products feels wet and sticky to me and make my combo/oily skin a wee bit unhappy. Also, the packaging would be so much better in a pump form...much more sanitary. All in all this product has the potential to be great but I just don't think it's there yet.

This is perfect underneath mineral makeup. It's like a filter for your skin!
Great primer!! 4
Destiny from Roseville, MN
I really like this primer for making my foundation last long! It makes my matte foundations have more of a natural finish, which I like. I think this is a great Milk Hydrogrip dupe because it gets really tacky. Only reason I put 4 stars is because the price.
So Good!!! 4

Amazing gripping primer 5
TSwizz from Atlanta
This is my go to for one of my priming layers. It holds and smoothes like nothing else I've found at this price point.
It's so soft on your makeup and so cute 5
Jade from Denver , CO
I have bumps on my face , and this blurs out my face so good in pictures , lasts me a while , and helps with my makeup
Stunning and long wearing 5
ShayMay from Utah
I'm in love with this primer! I love mixing it with my Estée Lauder double wear foundation and put both on my face together. This gives me the most natural, even coverage and my makeup stays in place all day. I will definitely keep repurchasing!
Didn't hurt my sunburn 5
Alyssa lovely from Texas
It makes my skin feel hydrated and dried down nicely. Just enough stickyness to grip your foundation
Not good for oily skin 2
Dede from Houston
Made the face really dry.
Tricky 3
Nim from Fl
Not dewy at all. Sometimes if I use it too much, the glitters will shine through but if I don't use enough it doesn't do anything ??? I finished the whole bottle but you def have to use a small amount otherwise it will also drag your foundation instead of making it stick! I love using it on the nose & chin while using another dewy primer on the cheeks & forehead to achieve a glowy look!
ALL TIME FAVORITE 5
Lex from Salem
I love this primer since the day I've used it! Not only is it so pretty with little gold flakes shinning in it, you put it on to where it's sticky & it makes your foundation go on and stay in place so perfect! Can't use anything else
Lose the gold flakes 1
Irritated from Pittsburgh, PA
Unable to find ingredient list anywhere, and Nyx won't provide them in the comments because they are inconsistent depending on when and where the product is purchased. Not good for a gold allergy. We couldn't figure out why my daughter's eyelids were swollen, flaky and irritated until she found somewhere on the internet that the specks are actual gold. Several days later we're still recovering with benadryl and vitamin E. Lose the gimmick and the irritant. Please.
Perfect for that dewy wet look 5
Cori from Culver City CA
I will always use this product now!! I hope they never disc!
Doesn't work as good as it looks 1

Great primer 4
Alv from Chicago
Really makes the foundation hold love it.
Great for dry skin! 5
Gyounit from San Diego
I love this primer for my dry/sensitive skin. Makes my skin dewy and soft. Not sticky or watery. My make up glides on smoothly. The only thing that I don't like is the applicator. Change it to a pump action.
Would buy this again 4
Val from Phoenix, Az
Makes my skin look healthy and smooth not sweaty. I was expecting this product to move my makeup around on my face but it doesn't do that at all and I love I'm this product for that. I've gotten comments on how my skin looks good when I wear this product.
So goood 5
Maraniexo from Montclair,ca
I had troubles with my fit me foundation being really cakey and patchy on my skin, so i bought this and mixed it in with my foundation applied with beauty blender. It looks super smooth on my dry/acne prone skin definitely recommend for those who have dry skin.
I love how it's not sticky, it feels very refreshing. 5
Kari from San Antonio, TX
It is very refreshing and hydrating for my face.
Get that faux glow! 5
AshLash from Illinois
Surprised by the reviews. I guess everyone has had their own unique experience based on preference. I didn't think it smelled bad at all. Love the applicator, it keeps me from applying too much (one dip is all you need, and scoop off the little excess on the top and there won't be a mess- I learned the hard way). My fav way to wear this is w/o makeup- it gives a natural dew and brightness to the skin! I look so hydrated! It also holds my foundation together!
A must have for mature skin 5
M.Huezo from Hanford Ca
So I discovered this amazing product a couple of years ago. Entering my 40's I was missing moister and plump skin. Finding a primer that could give me both was just a miracle. Well Miracles come true not only does it do what it says it does the price is totally doable. It has a tacky feeling but not sticky just enough to grip you your make up without the feel of cake on your face .. I'm a fan . Great for summer ,beach glowing look
EVERYTHING !!!!! 5
Yessss honey from Columbus
Totally recommend getting ! Makes your makeup last so much longer than other primers. Also gives you an amazing glow throughout the whole day.
Key of advice when applying put it on a fluffy makeup brush and apply that why so much easier and no mess what so ever.
AMAZING 5
Jasmine from Maryland
I LOVE THIS PRIMER!!!! i have combination skin so i was scared that my face would be too oily on my t-zone, but it was perfect! My skin was glowing ❤️❤️

I would buy again 4
Lisa from Houston
This primer gives me a glow & helps my makeup stay on longer. The applicator isn't great and threatens to make application messy. I've started putting product on my hand & just applying with my fingers.
