e.l.f. Mineral Infused Face Primer, Primer For A Smooth Foundation Base, Fills In Fine Lines & Refines Complexion, Vegan & Cruelty-free, Small

I LOVE E.L.F PRIMER, YOU WILL TOO - I have oily/dry combo skin and large pores, this primer literally makes my skin silky smooth. A little goes a long way with this product, you only really need a pea-sized amount to cover your entire face which is another reason to love because this product will last quite a bit of time. And for the price, that is a total still! It helps keep my foundation, and concealer looking fresh. I sometimes even wear it by itself! LETS TALK PACKAGING - The packaging could be deceiving to someone who doesn't buy makeup often or know makeup brands well. So I wanted to tell those interested in purchasing this product, do not be afraid to buy because of the packaging. This style of packaging is common among makeup brands! I have attached images and you can see the bottle on the outside is usually always bigger than the container that holds the actual product on the inside. This is true even for Urban Decay All Nighter Foundation and Fenty Beauty Primer. E.L.F isn't deceiving anyone with their packaging! Unfortunately, people base how much product they are getting on the size of the entire bottle instead of looking at the print of what is being advertised for what they are paying for. In this case, it is .47 ounce of product. In the image Born This Way and Fit Me are both 1 fl oz. you wouldn't be able to tell they hold the exact same amount of product based on the shape of the bottles and size, you have to read the product description. In this E.L.F product description, it tells you the product is .47 ounce and the packaging is 1.6 x 1.6 x 5.5 inches ; 2.4 ounces. In my opinion, you get exactly what you pay for honest packaging, amazing quality, and affordable pricing! :) I would definitely recommend E.L.F Primer to others.

The Elf Face Primer works well on my combination skin. It tones and smooths away any flaws and tones down the shine on my T Zone. I’ll always use the Elf Primer. I comes also in one for pores. Great product, highly recommended by me. 😁

I really like this Elf primer. It has silicone in it so it spreads on nice and even. After applying it I allow it to dry for maybe 1-2 minutes. I don’t put it on thick but I put 1 pump plus a tee-tiny bit more. It lasts a pretty long time. In my opinion I think it makes the face skin look better than Elf primer that’s specifically for making pores disappear. So that’s why I use it more consistently than others I’ve tried.

So I've been wearing makeup for years, but only recently decided to Do Something about the sometimes-often 'melting makeup' look happening on my face when it hits mid-afternoon. I have combo skin in that my T-zone gets SUPER oily and my chin and cheeks do not. My skin is also stubborn in that the pores on my nose are quite large, so you can imagine how makeup might settle on my nose with a double whammy of giant pores + oil. (If you can't imagine, the oil would basically melt the makeup off, but makeup that settled into my pores would proudly stay. So I had weird dots on my nose. YIKES.) I decided I needed to change my routine, which includes adding more products like this. I normally only used a bit of primer (Benefit's Pore Professional) around my nose, but decided I would try out the full face primer to see if it helped. I still use the Pore Professional on top (seriously, my nose is SO oily, it needs all the help it can get), but I think this primer really helps keep it all together, especially on the rest of my face. The only drawback is that the bottle is quite small, as someone else mentioned. The bottle is a bit of marketing trickery, as the frosty container is just the outer shell and there is a smaller container within. Ah, well - I find that with this I only need less than a full pump (maybe 1/2 - 3/4?) to cover my entire face. I recommend lightly patting in your primer, especially around your pores. It's better to pat/tap in your moisturizer/primer vs. rubbing it in, but this is especially key for primer. Patting will settle the primer into your pores more efficiently, allowing a more even surface. You'll feel your skin get more silky, so once you think you covered everything just do a pass with your fingertips - lightly - to feel for any spots that don't seem covered. For anyone who has also suffered from "melting face", "cakey layers", and "pore pockets" here are some tips: - Allow more 'setting' time between moisturizer, sunscreen, and primer before applying actual makeup. It's like applying nail polish, you need to give it some time to dry before you start the next layer, or else you get something that gets tacky and gunky. - Stipple foundation, instead of brushing/stroking it on. Less of a chance of your brush/sponge/fingers rubbing away your carefully laid groundwork. - When all your makeup is done (foundation, colored powder, bronzer, blush, eyeshadow, etc etc. whatever your routine is), use the setting powder. I currently use NYX Cosmetics Studio Finishing Powder, Translucent Finish, 0.21 Ounce , which I LOVE. (Left a similar review there.) lightly mist your face. I currently use NYX Cosmetics Make Up Setting Spray, Matte Finish/Long Lasting, 2.03 Ounce , which the reviews mentioned is comparable to Urban Decay's All Nighter (which is TRIPLE the cost) I know it's a lot of steps, and you could probably cut out a decent amount in the middle, but considering my stubborn oily skin, this is the best for me so far. Hope that helps!

I've tried many expensive brands that made my makeup look worse. This one actually works and is very affordable. Foundation goes on very smooth and last about 6 hours before needing a touch up.

This is a great product! Its a complete dupe to the smash box blur primer! I have very dry and starting to age skin and this stuff does the trick! 10/10 recommend!

Loving it so far. Been using for a few weeks now. Skin is nice and smooth and makeup stays put throughout the day.

Still on the fence about this one, I really like elf products but Im not sure if I like how this one feels on my face, its thick and slippery.

This is an essential in my make-up routine. The primer feels lovely to apply and leaves my skin feeling really soft and smooth. It also helps my foundation last all day.

Good for very sensitive acne prone skin. Love it

Je suis fan! Ma crème teintée ou fond de teint tiennent à la perfection ! Je le recommande vivement! Très bon produit!!!!!

good product.. good price

If you try this, you will certainly fall in love. I can bet on this. 1-It gives super bright look 2-Glossy bright face can be easily visible after applying this. 3- needs 2 mins to dry on face. Even quicker for hot summers. 4- quantity given in the bottle is too less so little heavy on pocket. 5- the colour is transperent gel. Not a tinted one. 6- glides smoothly on skin 7- skin on face feels silky and bright illuminating after each application. 8- leave for 2 mins and then start applying make up. 9- the impact of this primer is certainly visible. So i highly recommend to buy. 10- suits all skin complexion. As it is transperent so it does not gives patchy look at all. 11- make up after this primer lasts for 10 hours easily without touch up . But only in A.C. not in a sweaty weather.
