Real life blur without the filter!
I will start by saying that I am not a regular primer user--I've been trying to wear a little less full makeup lately--though I have used many brands in the past. That being said, I did enjoy trying out this primer. I have combination skin, and this did not exacerbate it or cause a breakout, and eve...

My pores are still very visible.
I really wanted to love this primer. The hype, the promises, and even the packaging gave me so much hope that this would finally be the product to smooth out my skin and blur my large pores. Unfortunately, it just didn't deliver. Perhaps I should try it with a different foundation but either way the...

I was sent this product in exchange for an honest review. I love bare minerals products so it's no surprise that I love this one too. I love that it's oil free because I already have oily skin. It goes on smoothly and really light weight. It melts into your skin & almost feels like you're not wearing a primer. Foundation goes on smoothly. I'm definitely going to buy the full size product.

I received a travel size primer for free in exchange for a review. This is the first primer I've used with such a silky texture. It felt oily on my skin but the product is oil free. My foundation went on smooth and I had high hopes for this primer. However, my makeup didn't last in the Florida humidity. After 3 hours, my makeup was melted and had settled into lines on my face. My skin also looked oily. I would not recommend for someone with oily skin.

I am always looking for new and innovative facial care and makeup products to elevate my look and I believe I found my next great product-Bare Minerals Prime Time Foundation Primer. This product is super easy to apply and helps my makeup (concealer, foundation, blush) glide on and stay put throughout the day. The breathable primer feels lightweight , but also comforting to my skin and I definitely see a difference in my finished look! The only issue I had was finding the right amount to apply so that it did not pill. I definitely recommend this Bare Minerals Prime Time Primer.
Such a great product!

The best thing about the Prime Time Blurring Foundation Primer is how lightweight it is. It left my face feeling silky smooth. I used a tinted moisturizer on top of it and it went on great. I also liked that the primer didn't have a smell to it. I am somewhat sensitive to strong smells from any make up products. Overall this product is definitely a winner!
