DEPTH REVIEW OF THE " Hyrdating Face Primer ".

I purchased mine a few weeks ago and been using it for about a week or 3 so I can give a strong opinion.Let my start off by saying " THIS IS NOT FOR ILY OR COMBO SKIN! ". My skin type is dry/normal, acne prone, and sensitive.I am dry in the colder months and in summer i'm normal.Since were in the co...lder months or at-least where I live, I have super dry skin especially underneath my eyes.This primer works like a magic when applied right.This can be super heavy and greasy and gross if not applied right.The way I apply mine I first start by dispensing a quarter of the primer on my clean finger tips remember ladies LESS IS MORE! " BTW I do moisturize with a lightweight moisturizer ahead of time " then I dot the primer underneath my eyes and on my dry patches only which is commonly found on my cheeks and forehead.Then I rub the product working my way outwards and dab underneath my eyes.I give the primer at least 3 min to 5 min to soak in.That being said this product is OMG amazing! I have pores & it camouflages them perfectly without feeling clogged. I feel hydrated but not oily? My foundation glides on smooth and even.I use the elf's acne fighting foundation which is targeted for people with " Acne/Oily skin " and without this primer my foundation goes on chalky and emphasizes my dry patches and pores, but with this its pure magic (:.Lets talk texture & scent , the texture of this product is like creamy baby oil.It has a silicone feel to it, so if your a person who HATES silicone based primers this one wouldn't be for you.This primer has a faint like makeup scent to it nothing obnoxious.Now lets talk packaging! The packaging is lovely for the price you pay, but here's a bad thing that I HATE with elf primers, they aren't fully filled with product, think half of the bottle.This is super annoying but then again this should last you a while if you use a little, like I said a little goes a LOONG way.So overall I would repurchase and do recommend for dry skin.
