Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy to apply I bought this a while ago and still have a lot of product left! It's perfect for days when I only want to wear concealer and want to put on makeup fast. It does have this really strange smell now but I ignore it as the product still works very well. Super easy to apply and did not make me break out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Hydration i bought this a couple moths ago and every day during quarantine I have used this product IT IS AMAZING!. It really hydrates your skin it is not oily, sticky or tacky, it is really smooth and does not leave your face shiny or oily. I also use this product as is after washing my face i rub some in and I'm done or Before my moisturizer when I'm doing my makeup, it actually leaves my face extra hydrated and my makeup last longer.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great if you want a velvet consistency I received this as a gift bc I've been begging for a specific Elf primer for a long time...this one is not it however and this is akin to a cheaper brand. It leaves a velvety smooth canvas for your makeup to just glide right over... This is not efficient for me. It's a good concept but I'm sticking with the one I wanted originally.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Over priced! I bought this for just shy of $10 online from Wal-Mart. This is definitely hydrating, but almost sticky when it dries. And to boot, elf is getting really bad on over packaging. The balm stick looks like you are getting a good amount. So I turned it until all the product was all the way out. Not even half of the stick had actual product. They do this with their pumps also. I have bought elf products almost from the beginning, but it is getting to the point where they are ripping off customers. I have bought everything from brushes, makeup, up to facial care. This might be the last.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Blown away I got this in a hydrate kit and this little stick has blown me away! I use it to hydrate before makeup and it feels so soothing. I especially love it to hydrate my lips which helps lip products look amazing all day.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Its great! I was able to try this product pre release and i loved it... i like to use it under makeup when im feeling extra dry and it makes my makeup go on soo nicely! I also like to just wear it on no makeup days with some type of glowy drops
