COVERGIRL Base Business Face Primer, Pore Minimizing 300, 1.01 Ounce

Having been a devoted fan of a particular really good (Smashbox) primer for YEARS, I have decided to branch out & try some more reasonably priced options. And I've tried quite a few, in many price ranges.Cover Girl, you've hit the nail on the head with a low priced, good primer.At just under the $5 range, it provides a smooth surface for makeup application.It's very light weight and comfortable to wear. It's not cakey & feels very much like applying a moisturizer.Observation 1: I have to use more of this than I do my normal primer. Not excessively more, but definitely more than the dime sized amount I was used to using.Observation 2: Water based & silicon/oil based primers are different. Your foundation ingredients must mesh with your primer ingredients. This primer is no different. It works much better under a tinted moisturizer or CC/BB cream. The results when using under a more substantial, full coverage foundation were not good. I had to remove it & start from scratch with a silicon based primer. Again, ingredients of each are important. I knew better and it's no fault of the primer...100% user error.I have worn this alone, with no makeup and it helps to even & smooth small imperfections. It has pretty good lasting power too. Be prepared for a touch up if you are a "wear all day & into the night" make up person.Conclusion: For an everyday, go-to primer, this one CG is an excellent & very affordable choice.

I love this product. It goes on smoothly and helps to shrink pores.

I keep buting this item because I jave gotten accustomed to ysing it under my daily makeup routine although I dont think it really covers the red, I believe it tones it down a bit but only after it really sets in and does provide a more matte finish. I do like the loght cream feeling and sometimes even mix it with my lightweight foundation on days I dont want to wear as much make up. The product always arrives with no issues and securely packaged.

Absolutely love this Matte finish face primer. Helps me keep my makeup on

Goes on smoothly and is very nice

I didn’t notice any color-correcting effect.

This primer made my skin very soft and also lasted very long! I definitely recommend it and the brand in general!

You’ll be happy you got it I stay stocked up I use this alone with no cover-up or no foundation. This primer turns to match your skin and I love it.
