Worth a purchase!
So this is not a miracle worker by any means it's not going to erase your pores magically if that's what you're hoping for but it does smell really good and it does make your make up much more Matt. I applied this before I put on my foundation, but after my moisturizer, let it dry. It has a very sti...

Can't report ZERO stars; will no longer buy
ZERO stars! I now hate this product. I've been using this primer for several years, however, something about the formula has changed (was buying vsn in light colored tube vs new aqua tube color redesigned). My process was cleanse, toner, moisturizer, Benefit primer then tinted pressed powder. Result...

It doesnt worked
Definitely will buy again
I really like the product. It helps keep some of the shine down.
Worst primer ever.
Ulta employees should be better trained when recommending products. This primer is silicone-based, which is not suitable for oily, acne-prone, or textured skin. It can clog pores and make breakouts worse. Please be more mindful when suggesting products to customers with specific skin concerns.

I would but again and again!
Was recommended by employee because I have oily skin and absolutely love it. Works perfect. Want to just wear alone. Makes skin very soft and smooth no oil.
Not effective for mature skin
I bought this with high hopes of reducing pores like it was advertised to do, maybe it's because I'm a senior, but I do have relatively nice skin. I'll be with some enlarged pores around the nose and chin area. I had hoped this would do the trick, but it really did nothing. Maybe it helps the makeup stay fresher a little longer, but that's about it. No help for my pores.
