I have warm, autumn skin tones. It reduces the yellowness of my face, which is nice, but it's drying. I think the texture is easy to use, which is rare for a color-control primer. I feel like color-control primers tend to have a strong pigment and tend to float to the skin... Dior liquid foundation was dry and flaky by midday after I applied it in the morning, but a dewy cushion foundation might be better.
I saw a lot of people using it on social media, so I decided to buy it. I felt that it was the most toning-up primer I've ever owned. If I only applied it to my face, the difference in color between my face and neck would be huge, so I applied it to my neck as well. It has good coverage and gives a nice glow, so I sometimes use it on its own. Personally, I thought it was a great product, but the texture was a little hard to spread, and since I was applying it to my neck as well, I felt the portion was small. Still, I really liked it, so it's a product I'd like to repurchase for the first time in a while.
The sample was more bluish than I expected, and it made my complexion look pale. It might have been good when my skin was yellow and dull, but it doesn't suit my current condition. The texture is hard to spread and difficult to apply, but it's not shiny, so I'm glad I can wear it alone when going out.
It has a great tone-up effect. It eliminates yellowness from the face. However, because it has such a strong tone-up effect, it may not match the color of your concealer or foundation, so be careful. Don't forget to match the color of your neck. It doesn't particularly make pores less noticeable or have any moisturizing properties, but it feels like it's specialized for tone-up. It has excellent sun protection, so I think it's great that you don't need to apply a separate sunscreen even in the middle of summer.
It really just makes you whiter. If you mix sunscreen with this in a 3:1 ratio, you can naturally whiten your skin. I have fair skin, but if I apply too much it looks too white and stands out, so it's for advanced users.
