> 3 dayThe feel of this primer is amazing! I saw an older woman on YouTube who was suggesting application of makeup and she used this. It just glides on and doesnt feel heavy. It really does minimize pores (especially in the T-zone) so that any BB Cream or Foundation goes on SO smoothly. Ive used other brand name primers (Bare Minerals, Arbonne) and other brands (Ulta, Avon) and this, by far and away is the best. You only need a little as it goes a long way. The price is fairly competitive in that although it is more than the Smashbox website, you have to consider the shipping cost which equals it out. Walmart online has it too but it is only .4 of an ounce for $16.00 so its basically the same. I highly recommend it. However, I only give it 4 stars as it, unfortunately, has silica (which makes it smooth) which is of environmental concern and has actually been banned in products in parts of Europe. The amount is small since its the fifth ingredient listed.

> 3 dayThis clear primer helped me apply my foundation so I dont look made up. Id given up on foundations because of my 59 year old skin. However, this primer did the trick. After an evening with friends, I had little if any foundation caught in my wrinkles. I dont know how well it lasts over a day, but I am aiming to find out.

Greater than one weekI have purchased the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer before from Sephora. Its supposed to be a milky white liquid. I bought this because it said that it was the same formula, just different packaging. Folks, that is a lie. This was basically a clear oil and does not behave like a primer. At first I thought maybe I should have shaken it more, but I shook it a lot, and it was still a clear oil. So, then I thought that maybe the whole original formula thing was a lie, and I contacted the Sephora customer service people to ask if the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer they are currently selling is the same milky white substance as before, and they confirmed that yes, it is. This means either a) I received a defective product, or b) this is some kind of counterfeit scam on Amazon. The moral of this story is: DO NOT BUY THIS, GO TO SEPHORA INSTEAD.

> 3 dayThis 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.

> 3 dayThis product is awesome. After I apply all my other skin care products on my face, including my tinted sunscreen, I then spread this on lightly focusing on my T Zone . It blurs and hides my large pores perfectly. I rarely use foundation anymore thanks to my tinted sunscreen, Elta MD UV Clear and Smashbox- photo finish smooth and blur.

19-11-2024Ive 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.

> 3 dayOne 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.

> 3 dayI am light skinned but I have redness on my face and this is the best product to get rid of the red skin tones. works well with any foundation, liquid or cream. it sounds expensive but this one tube lasts a long time.. you do not need much product at all. I tried other brands but came back to this...
