Most Helpful Positive Review This is a life saver! I did notice people giving this product a bad review because of the clogged applicator. You have to shake it well and squeeze the applicator to remove the residue and once it's liquid again you can then proceed to use it as directed. Shake it before every use and it should work as intended. I absolutely looooove this product! I have the most oily skin ever. I wish I could post a picture. No matte moisturizer, no matte foundation or Matte primer, or matte anything was able to stop the oil from coming through no matter how expensive the product was. But this little beauty right here is my life saver. I use it before all of my makeup and even on days where I'm not wearing any and it has been the best product I have ever used. Nothing beats this right here and for the price, very well worth it. I hope they never stop making this.
Most Helpful Critical Review Clay settles/ impossible to remix without breaking bottle When I first tried the product, it worked correctly, but then I was extra shiny later on in the day. I went to try the product again a few days later and found that the clay had completely settled, leaving an oily base liquid at the top. I tried to remix the fluid, but realized that a layer of clay was stuck to the bottom of the bottle, leaving an oilier product than intended because it wouldn't mix properly. My droppe was also clogged because the clay settled in it. This product doesn't stay stable and the clay is impossible to be re-dispersed after settling to create the original formulation. If I were to continue using the product as is, it would just be like adding an oily layer to my face. I do no recommend this product, and am seeking a refund.

Donna from MI
I already had my makeup on when I bought this so I put some on where my pores are the worst. and let it dry. Omgosh I love it!! I don't say that lightly either. I think that's how I'll be wearing it..OVER my foundation!!
This is a great Dupe for the Farsali liquid powder 4
Lyssa from FL
This is great once you get the clay that's stuck out and mix it in. Much cheaper then the Farsali one but really works the same! 4 stars cause you have to dig the clay out and reassemble the dropper.
I love the way this feels on my face! 5
BL from Maysville, Ky
Went on so smooth and my skin felt soft all day!
Favorite! 5
Dee from NC
This primer is one of my favorites. I've tried a lot of low and high end primers. Makeup revolution seems to make good primers. The pink clay can sometimes get stuck in the pipe. You have to make sure to shake it well. Overall would recommend.
Amazing for oily skin 5
Jenn from Georgia
This primer is amazing. This is the only primer I've tried that actually keeps my face matte. I have very oily skin and within 20 minutes usually my face looks oily. I'm not sure how it would work with dry skin but this is a game changer for me.
Applied after makeup - awesome 5
Jmiche from OK
I patted this on after applying makeup (I use ILIA super serum skin tint, W3ll People concealer, and a little bit of cream stick bronzer and blush from Milk) and my makeup looked fantastic all day long. I don't think I'll ever go back to powder after this stuff. After I purchased, I pulled the glass dropper part out of the top and used a Bobby pin to push out the built up clay into the bottle. Then I put the dropper and top back together, twisted the lid, then shook vigorously for about 1-2 minutes. After that it was smooth sailing. Will definitely purchase again.
best primer ever for oily skin 5
lupe from South Carolina
I have combo skin but my skin can be oily especially during the summer, I used this product for my makeup this summer and omg my makeup did not move, I definitely would recommend
gives a powder finish 5
Beth from Pa
the way I use it is after my foundation/concealer/creme bronzer I put some in my palm, use my beauty blender and dab on my face and let it set and my oily skin stays matte all day
Yaaaaaaaaas 5
szp from NC
Oh my goodness, this stuff is amazing!!! You have to shake it REALLY well and make sure you are being careful when applying (don't overdo it, apply evenly, use a dabbing motion when finishing to keep it from drying unevenly) and have to completely let it dry but it really does hold the makeup in place and keep you from getting oily! I used this before a concert and by the end of the night my makeup still looked bright and flawless. This is definitely a staple in my routine now!!!

Love 5
missa from NC
I absolutely love this stuff. As a very oily person this helps so much! Also I live in a humid place and this also helps my makeup stay better when sweating.
great! 5
Hannah from Jackson Michigan
I noticed people giving this a bad review because of the clogged applicator/separation. You have to shake it well before each use and then it's totally fine. It goes from liquid to powder quickly and helps smooth out skin for an even foundation application.
In love 5
Amazing from San Diego ca
Omg I'm in love with this as long as shake it before use. Per instructions the clay won't stick in the dropper. This has allowed me to wear foundations I've never been able to such as;The abh and the beauty Bakerie foundations because I'm so oily.there are no white splotches or patches it's completely smoothing and last for hours. Since I can no longer purchase the urban decay deslick primer I'll be using this
Nice Dupe to Farsali 5
PhillyFD from Philadelphia, PA
If you've thought about getting the Farsali version but don't wanna spend them coins, consider this as an option. It's not quite as thick as the Farsali but it definitely magnifies and minimizes pores.
The best 5
AD from TX
It gets exactly hot here in Texas, so for that I suffer from having oily skin all of the time. And this literally was the BEST for my face. For nine whole hours my face didn't get oily or dried out. I don't see it on the revolution page to be bought and I hope they don't discontinue it. Literally, the best primer that I've ever used.
Smelly 1
Sarah from Michigan
I'm sensitive to smells, but this was so over the top! It smelled like old lady perfume! I liked the formula on my hand but I was afraid to put it on my face because of the scent! Ugh!
Works well 4
missa from nc
This is quite an interesting serum/primer. It really does blur the pores and hold back oil but you have to shake it like crazy and the smell is not that pleasant, almost like an old perfume. But I really do like the effect on the skin.
Love! 5
Erin M from Washington
I'm loving this primer, I have combo skin and have found this to be a really nice base. It dries so soft on my skin
Crazy 5
KD from Illinois
This primer serum is amazing!! It dries down like a powder and leaves a perfect base!
Good Concept/Bad Dropper 1
Kristie from Auburn, CA
Once I was able to dig the product out of the dropper, it did nothing on my skin. I read the packing that it came in and looked it up to see if I was doing something wrong. I then noticed that a lot of people had the same problem. It just doesn't do anything on the skin. I ended up taking it back for a refund. I rarely take anything back.
Shake vigorously! 5
Maj from Here and There
I LOVE this serum!! Reading some of the previous reviews I was skeptical but it's absolutely AMAZING. Once it dries down and I get my foundation on it's like the serum dries it down even more than it would and it stays all day and looks so smooth and flawless! just shake it really really well before you and you shouldn't have an issue!!!
SHAKE FIRST 5
Kobyyashii from Utah
Please shake the bottom really good and then empty and refill the dropper a couple times, this product works amazing, it took me a couple tries to understand how it works but yes shaking the product to mix with serum and powder together make this formula work amazing for my oily t zone :) I will be buying another bottle
Not bad for the price! 5
Sjess815 from Indiana
I don't like the smell of rose, but I gave this a shot anyways— And primers are hard for me to use because they don't always TOTALLY absorb into my skin, however this dries to a matte powder finish as you're applying it and doesn't appear greasy or shiny— and the rose smell goes away! This Keeps my makeup on all day! I would recommend this!
