Love but Indifferent
My Bobbi Brown primer does an excellent job at hydrating without leaving me oily but not priming. I wanted to pair a primer with it and tried Tarte for the first time. I loved it! I waited about twenty to thirty minutes after applying the Bobbi Brown before applying the Tarte Primer. My make-up stay...

I thought I was the only one
This primer goes on pasty and pills no matter what serum/moisturizer I use first. I thought it was just me and maybe my skin was flaking and pilling off until I had to come on here to verify it's not me nor my skin!

IM SO ANNOYED CUZ WHY IS IT HALF EMPTY
Only ACTUAL Pore-blurring primer
I have very dry very acne -prone skin, with kind of enlarged pores. This is the only pore blurring primer that has actually worked and the results are immediately visible. It is silicone based so I can only use it on the top of my cheeks and the sides of my nose every few days when I really need it or for special occasions. I use a hydrating primer all over my face first, let it dry, then pat-on this primer with my finger very gently where the pores are most noticeable on my cheeks and nose. You have to let it dry before applying your foundation. I don't recommend using this all over your face especially those with dry skin. Some days when I take my makeup off I do see that I've developed tiny pimples on the top of my cheeks where I applied the primer but I use miscellar water while gently rubbing in circular motions in those areas with my hands. I wash off and redo this a couple of times just to make sure the silicone has been removed, and follow up with an SA cleanser or gentle cleanser. In my opinion its totally worth it
