Very eye catching and illuminating, as in the name
This Laura Mercier Illuminating primer is luxe! It definitely feels like skincare mixed with priming. I have "normal" skin but in the winter it gets very dry, flakey, and red. I love makeup and skincare that provides me as much glow as possible to combat those issues. This makes my skin feel super ...

Not worth it at that price point
I'll begin by mentioning that I was fortunate enough to have received this product from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review. I'm no stranger to primers and highlighters so this product was certainly within my wheelhouse. The packaging of the product itself is beautiful; the light pink ombré tu...

Feels so nice on the skin! My foundation lays very well on top of this and looks very glowy.
Iffy with Florida Humidity but great for day to day

I've used this in both day to day and a few full days at Disney in the Florida sun and humidity. Between the different moments, my thoughts are that the primer works pretty well to grip both foundation and my standard balm. It's slightly drying but I found that perfect for gripping the layering product. However, my negative star was because with the excessive humidity, my balm eventually settled into my skin more and some of the foundation became patchy. Overall it's not a bad product for day to day use.


Never used primer religiously but I will now!

I have used this primer for the last three days. It is hydrating but not wet. Leaves my face soft and smooth to layer my makeup with just a hint a luminosity. My skin looks brighter and more alive with this primer compared to others that mattify. A small pea size drop goes a long way. If you want a hint more of luminosity than use the recommended dime size. Easy to apply makeup on and it stays put until I take it off. Definitely will continue to use this and I will tell all my makeup wearing friends about it! I did receive the product in exchange for this review and I'm glad I volunteered! I'm a fan!



Youthful lit from within skin!

Laura Mercier makes some of my favorite products (I love the loose powder and shadow sticks!) so I was excited to be gifted the illuminating primer for free. I don't usually use primer and was a little apprehensive that it was labeled. "illuminating" - I was afraid it might be too glittery or sparkly but that wasn't the case at al! It gave my skin a beautiful lit from within glow that you see naturally with younger skin. I am on the older side so it really helped brighten my dull/mature skin and it was not glittery or sparkly on me at all. That being said I wasn't crazy about it on my forehead - I think I used a bit more there than I should have; next time I would use less on my forehead - a little goes a long way! The primer itself does an excellent job gripping the makeup and keeping it in place all day. It's very long lasting. The ingredient list looks pretty clean too. Would definitely recommend.


This is a definite a primer to try!!

The Laura Mercier Illuminating Pure Canvas Primer is a great pick for anyone looking to add a natural, radiant glow to their makeup routine. It blends easily with foundation, giving the skin a luminous finish without looking greasy or settling into fine lines. While it doesn't necessarily make makeup last longer or prevent creasing, it does provide a fresh, healthy glow. I have combination/dry, mature skin, and it worked well for me, offering a nice balance of hydration and illumination. If you love a dewy, radiant base, this primer is definitely worth trying!
