I did so much research before buying this primer. Everyone was giving it so much hype so I decided to go for it.
I was all set on getting the normal photo finish
primer but the lovely lady who served me explained the photo finish hydrating primer was best for my skin type which is dry.
Id say I've had this primer a month now and I have loved this product. I use a pea size amount and I put it on the back off my hand then apply it just using my fingers. On application it glides on with a silicon base. I like this type of primer because I also feel as well priming my face it is giving me the moisture i need. On application it does come out clear although it comes out the tube blue.
This is around the amount i use each morning, i apply it around my t-zone, chin and under my eyes. It sinks into your skin almost instantly which is great when you are in a rush like me most mornings haha! This is one of the best primers I have ever tried, it does what it is supposed to do, it hydrates my skin all day and it leaves my skin feeling refreshed and smooth and it keeps my makeup put all day. I do apply concealer throughout the day if I have any breakouts but this is just me personally it does generally keep the makeup on I am just slightly obsessed! I hardly ever get spots so when I do its a massive deal. Now i realize not all of you have dry skin and your skin type is more than likely totally different to mine. Smashbox do a range of primers from anti redness to oil free! I have never tried any other (obviously) but I can suggest having a go of them since this primer is amazing and does everything I would like a primer to do. I paid £28.00 for this full size primer but they do travel size primers in every type for £12.50. This is a great idea for someone who is new and wanting to try this.
I would recommend this to anyone it is perfect for everyday use! I would use it under my foundation no matter what I was getting up to that day! By using only a pea size amount the primer is going to last a while which makes up for the price a little. I would definitely re-purchase this product.

I have very dry skin so this sounds amazing. I've heard so many reviews about how amazing this primer is, and I'm glad that it lives up to expectations. I never knew that they did travel sizes, sounds like a good way to see if you like the product.
