I really really like this because in the summer my skin gets oilier. It works really well under the tinted moisturizer and my skin doesn't look as oily. It looks healthy and has a little glow, but not as wet as it did before.
The matte finish helps with oil control -- I'm super oily
I'm a big fan of this Soft Matte Primer—it's excellent at keeping my skin looking smooth and matte throughout the day without feeling dry. It's definitely a staple in my routine. I actually wanted to pick up the pink SPF version as well, but it was out of stock.
I don't recommend if you have oily skin I purchased it for my oily face and it didn't work at all.
This primer is a must have. It grips and works perfectly with the soft matte foundation, and helps keep oil under control all day. Hands down, this is the best.
The texture looks like a lightweight cream, but it gives a matte finish. It's amazing because overall, this type of product makes the skin look dewy without looking dry and matte. It's great! The skin looks very natural.
Absolutely don't go a day without putting it on. It sets the standard for the day. Makeup looks great all day, no shine. Light weight never greasy!
Love all NARS products!
The best
Used it without problems the first few times, then my face got all red and blotchy. And broke out, it was clearly from the primer.
