Fiona’s Review:

I’m mind blown by how lightweight this primer is and how quickly it absorbed into my skin. I have dry, sensitive skin with red patches, but this 

did a great job in masking my concerns, prepping my face well for foundation, and making me look healthily dewy instead!

It’s said that this product can either be worn (1) under foundation, (2) mixed in with foundation, or (3) alone. When I used it alone, I did not see much of a difference in terms of coverage as it was very sheer. However, it was such a game changer when I used it under my usual foundation! When I used it under my matte liquid foundation, it did such a great job in prepping my face. It did not make my skin look cakey at all, nor was there any pilling. It literally left one of the most flawless finishes and I received many compliments from friends and family about how radiant my skin looked! A little definitely goes a long way with this primer, I just used 1 pump, and it is officially a part of my regular makeup routine now. In terms of product longevity, I think it depends on how active you were throughout the day. When I wore this while I was working at my desk for the majority of the day, my makeup lasted all day and still looked great by the time I wanted to wash it off! However, when I had a full day of classes and was running errands, it seemed like more of an 8-hour long wear because the coverage faded for me by the end of the day.

An additional thing to note though is that if you are sensitive to scents, it has a fairly strong citrusy scent upon application. Contrary to popular opinions, I am not a big fan of its scent, but luckily it does not linger!

Overall, I would recommend this product and definitely think it’s worth the splurge. If you are interested in purchasing the product, definitely use my referral code to save yourself $15!
