Is this product Sweat and Waterproof?

This product is drying, aging, pills, (even when applied by tapping not rubbing),settles in lines, sucks every drop of hydration out of your skin.

I'm not sure how to feel about the glycolic acid but other than that I love the texture of this primer it applies super smoothly. I also love that it has no scent to it.
Seriously Disappointed
Normally, I use Smashbox Photo finish primer, I have for years, it is part of my beauty must haves toolkit, and periodically when smashbox comes out with a variation of the photo finish primer I always give them a shot. I had never been disappointed with any of their primers until I tried the resurface primer. When i tried it for the first time, my skin developed little bumps all over my face and the pores appeared enlarged. The next day after using it my whole face was dry and flaky to the point that I was embarrassed to leave the house for a few days.

This product supposed to give you a photo finish, smooth, renew primer look. It does at the beginning. I had used it by itself an has blend to my face. I'll do it before I apply my make up but my skin cases texture, gets really dry. And I get a cracking make up
