smoother face

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like using this primer for both the barepro powder foundation and the complexion rescue tinted moisturizer, I feel it makes the make-up go on even, stay on all day and not rub off on anything. I also feel my face is smoother then before I used this.

Not the original primer I used. Different ingredients. Is not long lasting at all, settles into my skin. Please bring back the original!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer is light and unscented and helps reduce the size of your pores. I like using it under my loose powder foundation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Prime Time Primer works beautifully with the bare minerals mineral foundation. I helps the minerals have a surface to "stick to" but using a brush with them in a circular motion makes the minerals slightly creamy and they blend so nicely with your skin.

Works for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use to have really oily skin. Now it's more like combination/oily. This stuff works well for the oiliness. The primer in it i forgot to notice how well that's working. I know it's much better than what I was using before that was from a different company.

Keeps My Makeup Smooth All Day ✨
Originally posted on bareMinerals
Yes, I recommend this
I’ve been using this primer under my foundation and it makes a big difference! It goes on silky without feeling heavy, helps my makeup blend evenly, and keeps it from settling into fine lines. I love that it gives me a smooth base without being greasy, and it lasts all day. Perfect for a natural finish.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The original Prime Time is so much better than the Prime Time Daily Protecting Primer. That stuff is awful.It's so thick and pasty. I literally had to apply it immediately after I applied the complexion rescue so I could blend it evenly on my face. I will order the original Prime Time from now on. Thanx
