Good primer but you need to use quite a lot to get a decent result. It feels smooth when it's on but it has a very strange smell that I'm not a huge fan of.

No. Maam.
This product has every paraben known to man!! Omg how did I not read the list before I bought this!!! I have used it 3 times and finally needed to look up the ingredients because MY FACE BURNS! ive been trying to figure out the smell, and it seems like tea tree oil...which I don't want to be putting on my face. Ew. I will be throwing this away.

Waste of money
After using this product for less than a week I’m sorry to say that my face has broken out which I had not had issues with prior to using this product. I also did not like the fragrance even though it did go away pretty quickly. I threw the product away even though it was only a week old.

LOVE this product, but BAD for my skin type
I am actually so sad to be writing this review but I think it's a necessary cautionary tale. I had been wanting to try the poreless putty primer after all of the rave reviews but couldn't get my hands on it and needed a new primer, so tried this one instead. I actually LOOOOOVE this product. I have been using it for about 2 months. The primer I used/tried before this was Tarte's Clean Slate Timeless Smoothing Primer. This gave me a similar feel at a much lower cost. I know people complain of the smell but I actually love the smell. It fills in my pores and noticeably smooths out my skin, and definitely makes my makeup hold together longer throughout the day. I love the feeling of putting it on my skin and how soft it makes my face feel. Now the downside.
I am still learning more things about makeup. I realize that this product as well as the previous primer I mentioned are both silicone-based. After a couple of months of wear of this elf product, I believe it may be the cause of my recent acne outbreaks and -flareup. I struggle with acne-prone skin which I have had under control for about a year. But recently I have broken out SO bad and I think this product may be the root of it as it's the only 'real' change in my skincare routine in the past couple of months. I have now read and learned that for those of us with acne-prone skin, a build-up of silicone product can create a protective barrier on the skin, but can also trap dirt/impurities, etc. So although I can't specifically say it's this product, I have a feeling it may be. This makes me so sad because I have been in love with this product. But I will be taking a break from it for a few months and switching primers and experimenting to see if it is this primer alone or silicone-based primers in general. I should have known that anything that smoothed my skin this good and filled my pores could be clogging :(
If anyone knows of a non-silicone based primer e.l.f. has, let me know! I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Great moisturizer primar from
I tried this moizturizer on my face and have never looked back. It runs out quicky so buy at least 2 at once. It made my skin feel super soft and very silky. And for the price, you really cant go wrong. I use it b4 putting on foundation.The small amount and a sort of strange scent of plastic (? Guess bc im not sure what it smells like) would be the only drawbacks & not enough ro deter me from purchasing it..I am 52 yrs old with dry skin

Greasy
I’ll admit that I’ve only used this product twice but I don’t know if I will purchase it again. I bought it at target when I ran out of my regular primer and I cannot get over how greasy it is. I really enjoy the smell of tea tree oil that this primer has,but overall it leaves my skin feeling very greasy and I can’t say I notice a difference in the appearance of my pores after applying it. Additionally I have noticed the same thing that other reviewers have mentioned; the container is only about half full! I understand that this is a smaller sized container but it isn’t even close being filled!

it was okay
I bought this and when i first put it on it was very oily and greasy. I did not know why it was like that so i stopped using it for a while. I maybe thought it was because it was poreless primer but to this day i’m still not sure. It’s a couple months later and it is even more oilier and greasy then it already was before. Also, i took off the bottom of the bottle and it was not all the way full down to the bottom. I don’t usually write bad reviews but i just thought i would let everyone know my experience!!

Can you use this primer and a primer mist at the same time? I'm not sure which one to buy.
You may combine this product with a primer mist if you like.

Does this primer or any other have SPF in them? As my foundation doesn’t
This does not contain SPF. We recommend our Beauty Shield SPF 50 Skin Shielding Primer for SPF protection.

Will this primer clog pores or cause breakouts?
you can research this product, as well as other product ingredients on skincharisma.com to learn more about what the ingredients do to your skin.
i searched for this product and there seems to be zero potentially pore clogging ingredients ;]

is it ok to wear this primer by itself with no makeup on top???
yes! i do this sometimes when i dont want to wear makeup, but my moisturizer makes my face shiny. the poreless primer dries matte and is great when not wearing makeup

Should I use my daily moisturizer BEFORE or AFTER applying this product? Do I just skip moisturizer with this product? Do I let the primer dry or can makeup be applied immediately?
use moisturizer before primer! rub the primer in with your hands and you can immediately apply foundation. some people like to let the primer sit to settle into the skin but personally i dont think that makes a difference

Why is there just an empty bottle? It appears the only product is in the silver cap portion.
this and the other elf primers are packaged in an airless pump. so when you first get you product, screw out the silver top and take out the plastic pink tube. underneath, you can see the platform near the bottom of the tube. as you use the product, an vacuum is created inside, pushing the platform and the product up further towards the silver top. when the product is empty, the platform appears to be at the top of the tube. The youtube channel BEAUTY NEWS has a whole video on airless pumps, specifically the ones used for elf primers.

is this good for men to use too /
in my opinion, yes absolutely! i've been using this for a over a year and i find that it hides pores and leaves my face with no shine. if you dont wear any actual makeup like foundation, yes this product is perfect. it will leave your skin looking natural but like a step up. it also works great under foundation if you wear it :)

I have combination skin, which mostly gets oily during the day, which primer do you recommend?
I have oily skin and I use poreless as my primer and then I set my foundation with setting powder and my makeup doesn't budge all day! If I want to look a little more luminous then I use the mineral primer.
