Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer for Women, Transparent, , 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

I’ve been using this product for years and I love it. It’s smooth texture and it’s great coverage make it my favorite

Ive used primers by Nars and Laura Mercier in the past, and was pretty happy. They definitely helped my concealer stay put, and Laura Mercier gave me a little glow. But I kept hearing about Smashboxs primer, and as Ive been trying to move more toward cruelty-free products (Smashbox/Estee Lauder is cruelty free as of 2017), decided to give it a try. OMG, I HAD NO IDEA BEFORE WHAT A PRIMER COULD DO. See, in the past, if I happened to forget my primer step, I wouldnt really notice a difference in application/texture, just longevity. Now, if I inadvertently skip my Photo Finish primer, I see IMMEDIATELY that my concealer is wearing differently (I use Tarte Shape Tape applied with a damp beauty blender). It will look dryer, more settled into my fine lines, and overall just more makeup-y. Ill actually clean it off and reapply with my primer! Smashboxs Photo Finish primer makes my skin smooth and baby soft to the touch, and makes my concealer look like my natural skin, just with better complexion.

This product is not at all like the one I bought at Macys nor is it like the last one I bought on Amazon. Its supposed to be gel like. Instead this pours out like water and doesnt work at all like the original product. Is this a counterfeit substitute? Im very upset as I bought one as a gift. Please respond and tell me how you intend to make this right.

I love the smashbox brand its amazing

The product was received on time, in good condition. The product consistency is really good , with a small amount you can cover your entire face, so this size of the product i think would last for a long time. I think is great quality, but be aware you order the right version for you skin. I ordered the original formula, but it made me breakout badly after a few days using it, I just figured using it only in some occasions , next time I ll try the light version. I does make that the make up stay longer.

I have rosacea but I hate wearing heavy foundations to cover it up. I got this in my monthly Birchox to try and I love it! I wear it alone but you can wear it under your foundation. It smooths out my complexion without feeling greasy or heavy. It feels like its going to be greasy when you first put it on but it immediately blends into a nice, matte finish. Dont get me wrong, it doesnt make my rosacea go away completely, but it definitely smooths it out.

Ive had this for several months now and while I do notice a slight difference in how my makeup goes on, its not enough that I have to put it on every day. It does leave my skin feeling softer, so I do like that.

One of the least greasy of those I have tried. Goes on nicely. Would buy again. Note: I usually use Arbonne, but it costs too much - especially with shipping. This is the closest that I could find. It is a little oilier than Arbonne, but does a good job. I do not have oily skin so it does not affect me in any way. It absorbs into your skin in a couple minutes and there is no sheen.

Leaves your skin feeling soft and makes the makeup look so much better. A little goes a long way so it will last for a while too
