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...

Had high expectations, results were not delivered
Thanks so much to bareMinerals for sending me the Mini Prime Time Original Blurring Foundation Primer for free! I received this through the BzzAgent sampling program. This primer was super easy to use! Simply just squeeze or pump the amount of primer desired, IT DOES NOT TAKE A LOT! I learned this t...

I have combination skin, and I tend to get very oily throughout the day. This primer made my face feel heavy and my pore's clogged. It also made my skin extra oily. I would say this is a great product if you have really dry skin but for me it just did not work.
Love it

I have been a Bare Minerals fan for many years, and have used a variety of products along the way, all of which have exceeded my expectations, this Blurring Foundation Primer is without a doubt my #1. It is sooooo velvety smooth I could barely tell that I was even putting it on, if I hadnt been standing in front of a mirror watching myself apply it, I would not believe it. I use it under a powder foundation, and got a full coverage result, without the heaviness of using a full coverage foundation. A product that is able to achieve that, and still look flawless after a 10hr day is just plain magical! For the cherry on top, its just as awesome on its own,without makeup. Bottom line:Its worth every penny, you really are cheating yourself if you dont try this.
Excellent primer!
I got a free sample with my ULTA order, and though it was only enough for a few uses, I am very impressed so far! I normally use a different brand, but I may buy a full size of this when my other primer runs out. Prime Time smooths my face and blurs my tiny lines. I think it's a great product, and I'm glad to have had the chance to try it before buying!
Not the best

I tried the bareMinerals Prime Time Original Blurring Foundation Primer and it was just okay for me. I really wanted to love it because it goes on super smooth and does blur pores a bit, but unfortunately it made my skin extremely oily. After a short time of wearing it, I noticed my makeup started sliding around instead of staying in place, which was disappointing.
