I tried 10 primers recently and this one is an all around winner for me. It’s not drying and keeps my foundation on all day and looking decent. It has a fresh scent and is more of a watery...

This is expensive but worth it. I love the fresh citrus scent. It glides on the skin like a dream and is very moisturizing to wear underneath foundation. It does dry slightly tacky which helps the...

This product made my skin shiny and oily looking. Exact opposite of desired functional effect. It did nothing for me.

This is an excellent primer for those with dry skin. It provides a smooth base and prevents makeup from clinging to dry, rough spots. I'm able to apply makeup effortlessly and it seems to provided...

I recently switched all of my makeup to Jane Iredale products and I couldn't be happier. I have dry/oily skin and I am prone to breakouts so I am a little weary trying new products. My esthetician...

It smells nice and goes on nice but it did nothing for my pores at all! Or my fine lines. I like a primer that minimizes them, unfortunately this did not do it for me. And with the price tag I...

Besides smelling wonderful, this product disappointed me. I had asked for a sample on the JI website and I am glad I did. When I first applied, it seemed very thin and has a light citrusy scent...

I would like to give it a higher rating, but it contains cyclopentasiloxane, which is possible cancer hazard, thus it deserves just 2 lipsticks. I have extremely sensitive skin thus I bought sample...

It seems like with Jane Iredale I either love a product or hate it, and this one just didn't work out for me. It went on nice enough and felt moist, but it didn't do anything for my skin like...

This is a great smelling, easy to blend, lightweight primer. I got a deluxe sample with the plan to try it under Jane Iredale's mineral powder foundation (which I love). I am not "in love" with...

I was never a big fan of primers, especially since most of them just make my skin oilier. When I tried JI Smooth Affair, I fell in love. First, it feels like a silky serum. It leaves the skin...
