Primer DOES help
Date:April 23, 2013
I had never used a makeup primer until I tried this one from Estee Lauder. It is wonderful! It truly helps the foundation go on easily. I highly recommend this product!
At the age of 74 I do not expect miracles ... but this product makes a significant difference in the appearance of my skin. Used after moisturizer I do not need foundation, and it gives a wonderful glow to my complexion. I will be buying more for sure!
I had never used a primer before, so I was excited to get a sample in a recent purchase. After trying this, I decided I must have primer from now on! My face looks more flawless and makeup stays more fresh looking like I just put it on. Needless to say, I have purchased a full size bottle.
Will not buy this again. I noticed with time zone moisturizer goes on ok but with hydrationist moisturizer underneath it doesn't spread well. Frankly I don't like this product. I also don't think it helps to put on my base more evenly. Not impressed.
I just got this product, and have only used it 3 or 4 times, but I have decided I really like it. It really does make my skin look smoother, and my makeup lasts all day. I will definitely continue to use it.
It's rarethat I don't love an Estee Lauder product

I got this as a sample. I usually use another brand of primer, but was happy to try this one, since I use EL eyeshadow, mascara, perfumes, and skincare. Unfortunately, I felt this primer "grabbed" the makeup *too* much - it was hard to blend foundation smoothly, though once on, it seemed to "hold" the makeup nicely. Also unfortunately, "illuminating" translated to "shiny" & "greasy looking" under office lights, which I didn't think would be possible on my dry, 50yo skin. I'll stick with my current brand.
I received a small sample tube of this primer while buying other EL products. I'm so glad I did! After a week, I returned to the store to purchase a full size tube. With high humidity, makeup tends to "melt" right off your face whenever you venture outside. Perfecting primer keeps this from happening. You can pat your face dry and little to no makeup comes off. I love this primer and I will never go without it again. Well worth the extra step.
I first received this product as a sample in my previous purchase so I decided to buy the full size. Such an amazing product!!! This gives you "model face perfect" skin. Put it on after your moisturizer and before your foundation, and you will get amazing comments all day about how great your skin looks.
It's fantastic!!! I will never go without it again.
I don't know how I went so long without using a great primer. A couple I tried didn't seem to work well. This one makes the foundation feel and look so much better! You will lug this one!
I WEAR DOUBLEWEAR MAKEUP. I HAVE RECEIVED MORE COMPLIMENTS ON MY MAKEUP THAN I CAN COUNT SINCE I HAVE STARTED USING THE PRIMER. WONDERFUL PRODUCT. I AM 55 YEARS OLD AND FOR SOMEONE TO NOTICE HOW GOOD MY MAKEUP LOOKS IS A REAL COMPLIMENT. COMMENTS HAVE BEEN, YOUR FACE LOOKS FRESH, CLEAN, MAKEUP LOOKS PERFECT... THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT.
I have never used a primer before, never thought it necessary. Boy was I wrong, Received this primer as a free gift with my purchase and tried it. I absolutely love it, made my skin feel wonderful as soon as I put it on, smells really nice, and not only does my foundation go on smoother but looks hydrated all day long. My skin also looks younger, I will be purchasing this as soon as my sample runs out, Thank you Estee Lauder
