Excellent
I love this primer, I have very dry skin and this is the only primer that doesn't dry out my face during the day. It's best under your foundation and it doesn't crease thank god because I'm all about no creases because I'm at that age. I think I know what everyone is complaining about the whole "grease" thing....they didn't shake it well. I had the same problem. I was used to buying it from the drugstore, but they ran out so I ended up buying it online, and when I pumped it at first I was like why is it clear and oily? then I realized that I had to shake it and than it gave me that nice whitish creamy primer that I know. so if you had a problem try shaking it before using it. still loving this product! Ive tried so many expensive primers only for it to dry out and crease under my eye...not this one though.

Formula has changed!!
I have used this primer for over a year. It was my favorite...till I bought a replacement bottle and NOPE! The formula used to be a gel/silicone/thick product with a wonderful smell. Now it’s like straight cooking oil and smells rancid!! They claimed they haven’t changed the formula but obviously something is wrong when the product changes that much. It’s horrible please go back to the original formula.

Best Elf Primer
Love this primer so much it makes my skin feel refreshed and smooth. I use it every time I put heavy makeup on and I love how well it protects my skin without breaking out as much as I have seen when using other primers. Definitely recommend trying!

Not for my skin or makeup
I love elf. I buy everything elf bc of the consistent quality and their ethics. I have combination skin at 38. Oily, dry and acneic skin. This primer feels amazing and I wish it did work in my skin but it keeps my makeup completely separated over time and rubs off very easily. I use elf’s Prime and Stay finishing powder at the base for my skin only. No foundation and their blushes. Primer wise, I use the liquid pore less putty and it’s AMAZINGGGGG. Sometimes products just aren’t for your skin type but I’m glad I found products within this line that do.

The Best Yet!
I've tried them all, and I keep coming back to this primer. I agree with another customer when she says it compares to DHC primer. It makes your skin feel amazing, leaves a soft plump focused effect and I've used it by its self for years. I hope Elf never stops making this product, and confused as to why they took it off the shelves on stores. I like to follow with the coconut setting spray as a final step for one more application of hydration. I recommend this product all the time!

A favorite used alone
I have used this primer for years, and absolutely love the way it makes my skin feel so silky smooth. It really reminds me of DHC primer. I only use it alone, or with the bronzing drops when I simply want a soft effect on my face on the no makeup look days.

Favorite primer
I have tried out several primers and struggle with both oily and dry skin. This is the only primer that I’ve found to work!

Is this non-comegenic?

I'm not sure if it is but every product that I use is non-comegenic and i've never had a problem with it clogging my pores or causing acne... I have very acne prone skin and this is the only primer i will use on it
