I tried the sample and it suited me perfectly, so I bought it! I have troublesome skin type; after applying makeup for a while, my T-zone gets oily and shiny, while the areas around my mouth, eyes, and cheeks get dry. However, using this product moisturizes my entire skin nicely, and my makeup looks amazing! Even after wearing makeup all day, my skin doesn't get shiny, and in fact it looks dewy! lol (My T-zone usually gets shiny even with an anti-sebum primer ←) I don't have to wipe the dry areas off, so it doesn't get messy and break down, which is great!! It looks heavy when you pour it out of the tube, but it blends into my skin immediately when I spread it on, which is great!! It also has UV protection, so isn't it amazing that this primer prevents foundation from weighing me down!!
