Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer for Women, Transparent, , 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)

Since first using a primer I have been unable to go back, and this Smashbox Photo Finish primer is probably my favorite. I tried a sample and fell in love with the silky texture, totally not greasy, which provides a thin veil over the skin to make foundation glide on smoothly. It helps concealer not to crease under eyes during the day, and it makes foundation and blush appear much more even and almost air-brushed compared to not using it. I use a powder foundation applied with a kabuki brush, and it goes on much better with this primer than on bare skin. Some primers tend to feel greasy or take a while to set, but not Smashbox. I highly recommend it!

It goes on like silk and your makeup looks great.

Works Great! I am 39 and I love it ❤️

Primer goes on very smooth and last forever, never go without it again.

I have been using this product for several years. It helps my makeup go on more smoothly and last longer . I have learned it works better when I wait ten minutes or so after applying it before I apply my makeup. The makeup seems to last longer. I have tried less expensive primers, but even though this is expensive I feel it is worth it.

Ive been using this primer for a few years, its one of only two primers Ive found that doesnt either cause breakouts, or wad up into little balls of gunk when applying, or make no difference whatsoever....and Ive tried a lot of primers. The other one I like is about twice the price of this, and I would actually pick this as my number one anyway. You can feel the difference in how your makeup goes on when you use this....it really does create a perfect canvas for foundation, (liquid/powder/cream) concealer, eye shadow, pressed powder, bronzer, blush, or anything else you can think of. Its easy to apply, goes on very silky, no obnoxious odor, its colorless, and it does not cause me to break out. You do need to wash it off before bed, but it comes off easily with ordinary soap & water, or your regular cleanser/makeup remover. Highly recommend this primer! A little goes a long way, so even though it seems a little pricey, it lasts for months and its worth the money.

Without a doubt, this is the best primer on the market. I have tried so many and NONE are as good as this one. It smooths your skin and makes it so much easier for foundation to stay put. Im buying more to give as gifts to friends.

This product is not at all like the one I bought at Macys nor is it like the last one I bought on Amazon. Its supposed to be gel like. Instead this pours out like water and doesnt work at all like the original product. Is this a counterfeit substitute? Im very upset as I bought one as a gift. Please respond and tell me how you intend to make this right.

I’ve used this exact kind for years and something is definitely not right about it. It’s coming out extremely quickly and looks watery or oily. Should not be this consistency. Returning and just going to Ulta from now on.

The feel of this primer is amazing! I saw an older woman on YouTube who was suggesting application of makeup and she used this. It just glides on and doesnt feel heavy. It really does minimize pores (especially in the T-zone) so that any BB Cream or Foundation goes on SO smoothly. Ive used other brand name primers (Bare Minerals, Arbonne) and other brands (Ulta, Avon) and this, by far and away is the best. You only need a little as it goes a long way. The price is fairly competitive in that although it is more than the Smashbox website, you have to consider the shipping cost which equals it out. Walmart online has it too but it is only .4 of an ounce for $16.00 so its basically the same. I highly recommend it. However, I only give it 4 stars as it, unfortunately, has silica (which makes it smooth) which is of environmental concern and has actually been banned in products in parts of Europe. The amount is small since its the fifth ingredient listed.
