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

I tried Smashbox Photo Finish Oil Free Primer recently in a trial size and was amazed at how well it worked. Its a great base for BB cream or foundation, and I can really tell a difference in the look. I have very oily skin, and I notice a difference in control when using this item, along with the Smashbox BB Cream and Halo Hydrating Powder, versus many other items I have tried. I do not need to blot as early or as often. There is a slight petrol smell to the product - I noticed this in the original trial size, and the same in the larger version - but it dissipates quickly. This item is pricier than other cosmetics Ive used, but Im pleased with the result.

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.

This is by far the best product for super oily skin - great in winter and even better in summer. Worth the price

This product came recommended. I found it to just be okay. It is light weight which I liked. But I found that my foundation would look a little streaked. Is just use it when I wasnt going to apply foundation to give more of a smoother look.

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

As a primer this does a very good job and the bottle had lasted me a really, really long time. Definitely makes the face matte in appearance and somewhat blurs pores. I often just put this over clean skin to go out without foundation. The only negative is that it doesn’t make a very good eye primer for me, I prefer to just have my primers be all in one. It’s a little too clear and too thin to be a good eyeshadow base.

Originally, when I got this product, I was really worried because it was much thinner than previous bottles that I had used. However, I shook it really good for a couple of minutes and tried it again and it was good as every time I had previously used it! I had never used a foundation primer prior to getting a sample of this product several months ago....never again will I wear foundation without this! Great price that beats everywhere else I have looked for this product!

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.

Many reviewers state this is not the same product you get from a real store. It is the same as far as I can tell. It comes out very liquify at first, but if you shake it to mix it well it comes out more like a gel. Goes on smooth and great under makeup

I’ve tried many others. This is the best with or without makeup
