I've found a primer that I absolutely love! I also use it together with Maquillage Essence Liquid EX, and it's become my new favorite because it doesn't smudge easily and my dry eye area, which I used to worry about, is no longer an issue. It evens out uneven skin tone slightly, and evens out uneven skin tone, and the pores on my cheeks look smoother and cleaner than usual, even with the primer on. I wish it spread a little better, so I'm giving it one star less. I recommend it to anyone who is concerned about pores and dryness.
It has a vitamin scent. It doesn't spread very well, but it has decent coverage.

I saw it being used in a YouTube makeup video and immediately bought it. It gives a radiant glow, moisturizes, corrects skin, and hides pores. I applied this primer and covered blemishes with concealer, and received compliments on how good my skin looked. I'll definitely be buying it again.
Just like the tagline says, just one product can cover up any imperfections and leave your skin looking smooth! It's fairly light and spreads easily, so I'm worried that if I apply too much it might crease. So I apply it little by little. Before using this primer, I used a liquid foundation, but because the primer has a dewy finish, I find it more comfortable to use a balm and powder foundation and finish off with partial concealer.
