Prime Time Primer
Originally posted on bareMinerals
Yes, I recommend this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product it goes on really greasy, so use conservatively but it immediately is absorbed in my face and I am ready to continue my morning makeup. Also the new pump bottle is much more efficient now. I love the way this product goes on and stays on and feels fabulous. I give it a 10+

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the worst packaging and the product is not as good as it used to be. The formula separates so you get oil one time, a blob the next, or it doesn’t pump out at all. I’ll be looking for a replacement brand.

Great product but lacking in amount

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product is great but man, it’d be great if there was more in the bottle. Feels like a chintzy amount for a high price

Worst packaging

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using Bare Minerals foundation and primer since 2008. This is the 4th different packaging they have put the original primer in and it is horrible. One tube used to last me for a good amount of time and now it empties so quickly. Also how much is left at the bottom when it stops pumping out??? Can cut it open like you could the tubes. Also, did the product change? In all these years why is this the first time the primer smells like chemicals? It is terrible. Please go back to the tube and the primer that didn't smell bad.

Please bring back the original

I went looking for the bare bareVitamins version of Prime Time today, but was disappointed that this new “original “ version didn’t match up with the old look and feel, so I moved on to other products. When you reformulate this to the real original Prime Time, I may check back again.

Bad reaction to this "original" primer
Originally posted on bareMinerals
No, I don't recommend this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the Original Primer and used it for many years without any issues, but this one is no way the real original one as advertised. I developed a terrible allergic reaction with this one. My face became very swollen and itchy with tiny papules after first application. Not sure what Bare Minerals is putting in their newer products because I reacted the same way with the new Skinlongevity serum, which I never had a problem with and also loved (the "gold" one) before they changed the formula.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not sure if I received old stack or if the product changed but more often than that when I go to put on my make up this flakes off my skin

I’m so disappointed. This is absolutely not the original formula and to call it that is an insult. I find this formula to be even worst then the last. Please just bring back the actual original formula, this makes no sense.

I love the way this primer makes my face feel really smooth. Feels like a great base for my makeup. I think it makes my makeup application smoother with less pores showing.

Dissatisfied
Originally posted on bareMinerals
No, I don't recommend this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not dissatisfied with the actual product in the bottle and I was thrilled that you brought back the original primer, but I was sent a bottle that must have been returned by someone else, because I pumped and pumped (bringing back memories of the old bottles which would never pump the product out) and nothing came out. I went to unscrew the top off to use the primer directly from the bottle and saw that it was on crooked. Odd!!!! I finally got the top off only to see that there is no tube going from the top to the product! Seriously! I think someone returned this for these very reasons. I am 73 and have always loved this primer and was so excited you brought it back, but this really upset me! I have not had the time to return this.

new container and formula
Originally posted on bareMinerals
No, I don't recommend this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pump dispenser barely works and the formula feels more grainy/gel like. I still had some primer left from the tube version of the product (which I loved!), and did a side by side just to make sure. Super disappointed in the change.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this primer, but I do not like the container. The pump doesn’t work well and as it runs out, it will be impossible to get the last of the product out of it. I prefer the squeeze tube.
