So far this matte primer is the only one that has worked for me (to some extent) and I have literally tried almost every single one! I like that they have the mini version as it is quite expensive and I use it quite frequently. I would say it’s not a primer for the full face as it does cause makeup application to be hard to blend. I use it for my forehead and nose because I don’t put any makeup on my forehead and nose. Those are also my oiler parts.

My favorite mattifying primer!
I've used many mattifying primers (Fenty - old one and new one, Danessa Myricks - both, Milk, Smashbox, etc.) and I keep coming back to this one! It works with my skincare and foundations - never pills. Keeps me matte alll day.

Great for Oily Skin
If you don't have oily skin, it may not flow over your skin. It works WONDERS for me and my oily skin!

This keep me matte! I use this primer with the makeup forever HD foundation. But I noticed if i rub the primer too much into my skins it creates this week texture and ends up on my hands.

Honestly
After fully using this product it left me confused. I would apply after my moisturizer and it would leave some spots on my skin with a white spot. Super weird but once I fixed it I had no other issues with this product. Do with that as you will!

No primer has been able to keep my makeup looking fresh for hours the way this one has. My skin is extremely oily and this product has done wonders for my makeup routine!! It is pricey but soo worth it for how beautiful my base looks.

Love this! Definitely matte
Love this! Definitely prevents oil coming through and gives you a matte look. Don't be fooled by the packaging's bland appearance lol, sometimes the best products don't have flashy outer looks :)
