Smashbox Foundation Primer Reviews

I gave this primer a try when I received it as a free gift from ulta when I ordered online.  I had never tried primer before and was very curious how they would work.  I used the little packet up in a few days and was surprised how much it felt like silk going on and blending in nicely.  If you do happen to use too much though...it does feel greasy.  I do have dry skin--so I have to be careful when applying makeup-so that I get a flawless finish and this does help.  It does minimize the appearance of pores...but only by a smidge.  It also gives a smoother appearance for the face.  I did...

I've heard about this primer and have really been wanting to try it but its a bit pricey.  Last night I found a travel size of this product for $16 and I grabbed it!  I used it this morning, as I always put on a primer before my foundation.  It really gave my face a super-soft and silky feel.  It instantly reduced the look of my pores on my nose!  Wow!  I love it already!

I have very senstive skin, that is prone to breakouts, so Im especially careful about the products I use.  When I had my makeup done for a special event the makeup artist used this primer and assured me it wouldnt clog my pores or irritate my skin. Not only did my skin look the best its ever looked but it made my makeup last the entire night.  I bought a bottle myself after that and no matter what foundation I use the primer makes it go on smooth and evenly and stay put. I even use a little bit on my eyelids and it works for my eyeshadow too. Its an essential for me now!

SmashBox Photo Finish Foundation Primer

I recieved a sample with my SmashBox Foundation and was saving it for my wedding. I figured I best try it prior to see if it is something I wanted on that day.

Wow! I love it!

It really gave my face a super-soft and silky feel. It instantly reduced the look of my pores everywhere!

SmashBox Photo Finish Foundation Primer helped me create a perfect canvas for foundation with the silky blend of vitamins.

Now I MUST go buy some! :) Its rather expensive as are all Smashbox items, but its better than useing 1/2 of 4 different kinds! :)

I first got a sample of this product and then rushed out to buy it!!  IT IS FABULOUS. I will not wear makeup without this primer. It sets up my skin makeing it smooth for a great finish with my foundation. My foundation goes on smoothly, doesn't cake etc.  It is awesome and worth the price !

I was pretty skeptical about this stuff until I finally managed to score myself a sample - then I was sold on it! It makes your skin really, really smooth and soft, which means makeup goes on easily and smoothly. Some days I can even skip my foundation because it evens out my skin so nicely!

After trying the sample, I bought a bottle and started using it daily. I noticed I was breaking out a little bit more than usual, so I cut down to using it more like every other day, and now I seem to be doing just fine.

Overall, I'd say this stuff is really great. The only reason I didn't give it five stars...

I love this stuff! I've been using it for a few year now and it really works! It feels like silk going on and prevents that caked on look that makeup can sometimes do. It's like having your own Photoshop, because it makes your face look smooth and perfect without any imperfections! I have sensitive skin and this product does not bother it at all! I love this product and would recommend it as part of you daily regimen!

  I have just discovered this makeup by accident getting a free sample of it in the mail. It is by the makers of Max Factor, but it is  by the next generation. The company is called Smashbox. I am a olive skinned, middle aged woman and have a few white pigments in my skin. I have tried every kind of makeup to cover these pigments with foundations. They never completely cover.   I got this sample in the mail of smashbox photo finish foundation primer, and decided to try it. It is clear in color. I couldn't believe it!  For the first time, it completely covered my pigments. I just used a...

When I exfoliate, wait for my moisturizer  to sink in and then allow the primer to set, I can definitely notice the impact this prouct makes on the way my makeup sets and finishes.  I love it.  A few of the ones I have purchased have had pump dificulties, but i think they have worked that out with a new design.  I love Smashbox eyeshadows and usually buy the Smashbox sets that include the primer and shadow/other items.  Just about everyone I know now uses this.
