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?

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...

I would buy it again
It makes your face smooth and I dont need to wear cover up I just use the primer.
Great for mature skin
Sometimes you don't realize the benefits of a product until you run out of it. I ran out and wasn't able to get to the store for a few days. For those days my skin felt dry and when applying foundation the look was not overall natural.
Wonderful product
After you put your makeup on, a thin layer of Photo Finish is absolutely wonderful. The skin looks so natural and it feels as soft as butter.
Not for textured acne skin
This made my makeup look horrible unfortunately. I preped my skin with a wash and moisturizing treatments to make my makeup smooth upon applying the primer. I have textured and acne prone skin. It did not blur my pores, it did not help my acne get blured either, and it made my makeup cling to every crease and go on patchy. I couldnt get my makeup to stay on my nose or chin and it almsot didnt even allow mt makeup to hug wround my acne. Im stetinf woth Elf Grip Primer. I have photos but it does not give me the option to upload.
Feels wonderful
as everyone says, a little goes a long way. it feels so good going on and keeps my makeup lasting all day. I do love Smashbox's resurfacing formula a little bit better so I will switch back to that after this bottle runs out but this one is also good.
