Since I love trying new primers, I couldn't wait to test out this one which promises to give a dewy effect. I applied it after my moisturiser and my first impression was that the primer was quite watery compared to the other ones I have used. When I applied it to my face, I noticed that it didn't fully blend in the way I wanted and my face felt a bit 'slippy'. This is never a god sign with a primer. I waited a few minutes but it didn't seem to sink in. So, I thought I would persevere and try to apply my foundation with my fingers as usual. This proved to be a real pain and my foundation just slid all over my face and didn't blend well at all. Kind of like if you tried to apply foundatio over sunscreen...it just won't work! My MAC MSF Natural powder kinda sopped up some of the slippiness but not enough for me to feel comfortable to wear the same makeup out tonight.
A primer really shouldn't be this much work and is supposed to make your life easier, not harder. I was really disappointed with this product as I've heard so much about the brand. I think I'll stick with MAC Strobe Liquid to create an illuminated dewy look.I will try out the other products and let you know what I think as sometimes not product ranges can have the odd dud and you shouldn't let it taint your opinion on the other products they offer.
The lipstick shade 'Agony'does look a little concealer-like but I'll see if I can make it work. I'm not sure if the foundation will be a good shade match but I'll give it a whirl.
Have you tried the primer before and if so, what did you think of it?
