MY TAKE ON THIS/FINAL VERDICT
This primer is one of my favorite primers I have used. A little goes a long way because we require a very little. This primer applies smoothly. It doesn’t get sticky or tacky on the skin. It reduces the appearance of pores instantly. It’s perfect neither matte nor dewy. It’s also a good option when you are in a hurry or don’t want to do makeup. Most of the time, my hand reaches this primer whenever I want to wear makeup. It makes my face appear smooth and ready to go even if I wear it alone. Since it is a silicone-based primer, over usage may move your foundation. Great primer! I always recommend it if you have larger pores or fine lines.
