Description:Improves foundation application while minimizing skin imperfections. Makeup lasts longer and skin is left velvety smooth with a matte finish. What else you need to know: Glide this wonder gel over skin before applying foundation to matify, smooth, perfect, and prep your skin for the a perfect foundation application. It can be mixed with a liquid foundation for a lighter coverage and to create an even skintone. Ideal for combination-oily skin types.
Review: Using this primer for the past week made me feel that “yea, I’m missing a primer in my makeup routine”. It’s a clear gel primer that smooths the texture of skin and allows foundation (both mineral and liquid) to be applied evenly. It’s very light and absorbs quickly to a matte, powdery finish. It might be a little greasy but a Kleenex would help.
I think the primer really helps to matify skin as I didn’t need to use a blotter throughout the whole day when I had the primer on. Unless I find another product comparable to this, I might just keep on buying Sephora Smoothing Primer!
