It Works SO Well!
I have been over, under and through the primer wars. None of the over half a dozen I've tried delivered on their dual promise: to minimize the appearance of pores and wrinkles, and to keep makeup firmly plastered to my face until I washed it off.All my previous primers did a halfway decent job as pore minimizers, but all failed utterly at keeping makeup in place all day. At best I'd get four hours of a "freshly made up" look before makeup melted away completely.The past year my go to has-been elf's poreless putty primer, which I use on most of my combo face. I use elf's matte primer on my nose and chin because those areas remain oily even at 62. Neither retains my makeup all day, but they were the best I could find (without paying a not so small fortune).I like elf's products very much, especially their cc camo cream foundation and makeup misting & setting spray, and decided to give this new liquid primer of theirs a try. My expectations weren't high.I am pleasantly gobsmacked, because *this* primer delivers beautifully on all counts! It's the primer I've wanted my whole adult life. It does a superior job of masking pores and fine lines, firstly. But far more importantly: it keeps my makeup looking great all day long!It goes on a bit thick but I have no difficulty applying & spreading with my fingers so long as I work quickly. It sets up fast too, taking no more than a minute, and provides a nice smooth even canvas for foundation or blush. I didn't notice much of an improvement in my skin's appearance with the poreless putty primer but definitely see a big improvement in skin appearance and texture with the liquid primer. It's the first primer I've found that seriously improves the appearance of my skin even without makeup.I have combo skin, and would say that this primer is very slightly on the matte side. It keeps the oil on my nose and chin at bay all day (which is epic) yet somehow softens my fine lines and subdues my pores without drying my skin. It's bloody miraculous.It's taken a lot of years and money, but I do believe I've finally found my Holy Grail of Primers!Ver másVer menos
