LOVE THIS!
This is awesome! Very moisturizing and honestly, so much better than a primer. It creates such a smooth canvas to work with and like another reviewer said, it requires zero dry time. Cannot wait to order more of this stuff!

$5 Well Spent!
OMG, I didn’t expect to love this as much as I do. I’m 55 and am always on the hunt for makeup that provides an effortless “no makeup look” and this does the trick without settling into lines or even leaving a trace of artificial beauty. I love how dewy it makes my skin without looking overly highlighted or glossy. I’m thrilled! I’m not one to write reviews, but felt the need to share on this one. I’ll definitely buy again and again. My typical shade is light/medium, so I went with the “Glistening Peach”. It looked like it might be too light in the store, but trusted the color guide on their website…glad I did. It was a perfect compliment to my natural skin tone.

Great
I purchased this because I saw a review on it and thought I would give it a try, so happy I did. I have extremely dry skin around my eyes and bought this to apply under my eye area before using concealer. This works a treat for me and does what it says...hydrates, my makeup products do not sit in my dry areas or look cakey. I even take it out with me to apply if my skin is looking dry. I also use it on my elbows. Very happy I found this product and will definitely be buying more when I run out. Thank you E.L.F !!

When would i put this on during my Morning Beauty Routine? Would it be after I’ve put on my Sunblock | Moisturizer | Eye Cream. Or before all of that?

We suggest that this be applied first.

Been looking into makeup and found this as a possible primer. a lot of people in the reviews are saying it makes them break out. My face barely ever breaks out. At most I'll get one or two small bumps on my face. Will this product cause worse break outs?

Results may vary but this product generally does not cause breakouts.

Does the bad smell that everyone commented about go away after you have had it applied for a few minutes? I would be willing to try this if it does, but I don't want it if the smell lingers on my face all day.

This is a fragrance free product so the ingredients may be slightly pungent, however this should dissipate.
