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...

Okay primer, no blurring

Submitted 1 year ago

By Ash

From Michigan

I bought this for the supposed blurring effect and was disappointed. There was no noticeable blurring. It's okay as a primer but for the price there are better primers. I won't purchase this again and I don't recommend.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Good product but Ulta has a dupe

Submitted 1 year ago

I liked the Smashbox photo finish primer but I think the Ulta Beauty Soft Blur face primer is just as good and much cheaper. This is definitely the kind of primer that goes on silky but sits on top of your skin. Not like other primers with texture more like lotion/serum that better soak into your skin.

Dont know if they changed the formula or not but it used to be supper good, it used to look grainy and matt but the newer formula look clearer (shouldve been the first red flag) i thought it was my skin care prep (wasnt) but it kept making my makeup peel no matter how long i let it sit for it just kept peeling

How to use this product ?
Asked by Beauty
Official Answer By Smashbox US
We’re glad you asked! Smooth a pea-sized amount over clean skin with your fingertips, working out from the center of the face. Wait 15 seconds before makeup for that flawless, soft-focus effect. Wear alone or under makeup for an IRL filter glow every day!Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Does this primer cause flashback on camera flash? Has anyone use for your wedding day and what foundation did you use with this primer?
Asked by VanityCindy
Official Answer By Smashbox US
Our Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer is actually designed to play well with cameras - no flashback here. It goes on clear and keeps your foundation true to tone, even with flash. Lots of brides and artists use it for wedding days because it smooths, grips, and stays camera-ready. Just pair it with your go-to foundation, and you’re set for photos.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
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?
Asked by Di
Official Answer By Smashbox US
The Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer acts as your real-life filter. Use it daily for a blurred, soft-focus effect on your skin—wear it alone or underneath makeup. You don’t need to apply it everywhere; spot prime only where you want smoothing and blurring.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can you use this with powder foundation?
Asked by Roo
Official Answer By Smashbox US
Yes, you can use Smashbox’s Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer with powder foundation. This primer creates a smooth, blurred base that helps powder apply evenly and last longer. Just let the primer set for a minute before applying the powder.Was this answer helpful to you
