It's the perfect primer for this season. I have combination skin and am not good at primers, but I like how it moisturizes without being too dry or shiny. I don't feel like it has a strong foundation-protecting effect, but it does seem to make my skin feel more comfortable even on days when I wear makeup. It's not heavy on the skin, but I like how it provides a layer of coverage.
A lifesaver for reducing blackheads!! As someone who has struggled with blackheads for years, I'm so happy to have found this. It's my savior, as liquid foundation clogged my pores and produced a lot of blackheads. If I apply this and then liquid foundation, I don't get any blackheads at all. They're not zero, but they're far less than before. And if I apply this and then powder foundation, they're even less. But for those who absolutely need the coverage of a liquid foundation, this base-powder strategy isn't for them... I use this method because I think skin without blackheads looks better, even if the skin tone is a little uneven. I hope this helps others who are struggling.
I tried it a few times because it had very good reviews and I was attracted by the fact that it prevents foundation from weighing down my skin. Compared to my favorite Minon primer, I think Minon's finish and lack of drying are better. Personally, if I were to use this, I think it would be better to use Curel sunscreen and then concealer on problem areas. I use it as sunscreen when I'm at home, and when I go to the local supermarket.
