Bare Escentuals Barevitamins 'Prime Time' Foundation Primer Reviews

I've tried primers from Smashbox, Benefit, Vincent Longo, Mac, ect, and they all caused horrible acne breakouts on my face.  I'm a avid Bare Escentuals fan and over the past 4 years have learned that my skin will only tolerate their foundation on my acne prone skin.  I loved the idea of what primers do such as fill in large pores, evening out the skin's surface for easier makeup application, and it's ability to make your makeup last all day.  But no matter what primer I used, my face always reacted horribly to it and so I thought I would never get lucky enough to be a regular user of primer,...

I got the Bare Vitamins Prime Time Foundation Primer after it was suggested to me at the Bare Minerals store in the mall. It is awsome!!!

This primer leaves a silky-smooth layer on your skin and the Bare Minerals make up just clings to it. I do not need to touch up my Bare Minerals anymore! It's pricey, but you only need a tiny amount to get the base you need. I think it is a necessity if you are using the Bare Minerals make up.

The one I have is the normal one, but they also make a foundation primer for people with oily skin. Bare Minerals make up does last a long time, but it will last even longer...

I absolutely love BE Prime time Primer! It makes my BE makeup go on easily and makes my skin feel very soft. Best of all, since I suffer from adult acne, it does not cause acne or irritate my skin! I definitely recommend it to anyone using BE makeup!

Bare Escentuals is truly a great primer. I have tried the most expensive to the freebies that come in the mail. This product goes on smooth and helps to prevent the creases from holding powder. It allows the makeup go on smooth.

Bare Escentuals Bare Vitamins 'Prime Time' Foundation Primer really worked for me. I have extremely oily skin and this just seems to completely eliminate any oil in my skin throughout the day. It is a makeup primer, but you can wear it under some tinted moisterizer or by itself. The other important thing that this primer did for me was completely shrink my pores. My pores in my T-Zone area were HUGE, but now thanks to daily use of this primer, my pores are almost invisible; my skin is so much smoother. Now that my pores are minimized and my skin doesn't get as oily as it used to during the day,...

I received a sample of this from Sephora.com with an order I had placed. I already had a primer from Makeup Forever. But this one just blew that one out of the water! It feels simply amazing when you apply it. Almost like your blending a silky gel into your face. I can't feel this stuff at all when I apply it! Its incredible!I honestly believe I could pour the whole bottle on my face and not even feel it once its massaged in. The holding power is pretty awesome as well. I catch myself wiping my face quite often and never do I see any of my foundation come off on the towel. For a little over twenty...

As a TV reporter, it's important for me to look my best in front of the camera. With hot lights and running around town, you have to find the best quality makeup for your skin.

I wear makeup every day and have fairly dry skin. To prep my face, I cleanse, moisturize, SPF, then add primer--all before the makeup.

As a person with dry skin, it's hard to find a makeup primer that doesn't emphasize the flakiness. Other brands I've used include Lancome, Clinique and Smashbox primer. The top two brands I use includ this BareMinerals product and Smashbox. But this one gives me the same bang,...
