- Q
Is this an oil-based primer or water-based primer. My foundation is water-based (Este Lauder Stay in Place) and I need a water-based primer.
- Asked by T
- Official Answer By Dermalogica US - Brand EngageHello, thank you for contacting Dermalogica. SkinPerfect Primer SPF30 is not strictly water-based. While water (aqua) is included in its ingredient list, it is not the primary component. Instead, the formulation is predominantly silicone-based, featuring ingredients like cyclopentasiloxane and dimethicone crosspolymer at the top of the list. This silicone-rich composition imparts a smooth, silky texture to the primer, aiding in blurring fine lines and creating a refined base for makeup application. Additionally, the primer contains moisturizing agents such as glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, which help maintain skin hydration throughout the day.

- Q
This product caught my attention because it combines sunscreen and primer in one. As a person with combination skin and larger pores I was looking for a good primer. However the price is high considering the amount of product you get. I am curious about the sunscreen coverage of this primer. Usually dermatologists recommend using a good amount of product (line alone the index finger and middle finger). However, I am wondering how reliable the statement is, that this primer has 30 SPF.
- Asked by JBG22
- Official Answer By Dermalogica US - Brand EngageHello, thank you for contacting Dermalogica. Skin Perfect Primer contains a potent peptide to help support skin firmness as Broad Spectrum 30SPF sunscreen helps shield against sun damage triggered by UV light. Wear alone over your moisturizer, or after moisturizer application and before foundation, to help decrease the appearance of fine lines for a lasting make-up finish.

Not suitable for darker skin
Based on the excellent rating, I bought this item online. Unfortunately, it isn't great on darker skin. I'm Indian, with tan skin. The shade of this primer does not blend well with any skin color, as some of the reviews suggest. It ended up looking visibly lighter and chalky. Besides the color, it d...

I love this product!
This is a great product. I have very sensitive skin and this does not irritate my face at all. Love it!
Not Bad
I've been trying to find a primer that blurs my fine lines. With everything I try, my skin looks great at the beginning of the day only to look haggard at night. It's not the primer, it's my skin's texture. I just have to accept that its aging.

Best printer i have ever used by far Love IT
A must.

I love this primer. I use it every day to go underneath a tinted sunscreen. It's works and I don't have to use any foundation. I'm older so concerned about settling into lines etc. this doesn't. I love the Dermalogica line and literally own every product they sell. Now that I'm in my 50s I wish I had started this in my 30s
