Recently one of the magazines that I subscribe to had a sample of L'Oreal Studio Secrets Face Primer in a foil pillow on a postcard/coupon within the magazine.
This was my first awareness of the product. I thought it afforded a perfect opportunity to try it, as I like primers and have several.
It only takes a little
I used it the last two days, and there is still some left in the small sample, because it takes very little.
What's it like?
This is a little bit like Spackle for your face, because it has a thicker consistency than some primers. To me, it's a bit like a cross between Clarins (which I love) and Avon's (which I also love.)
How does it work?
It fills in small surface lines like magic, and gives a smooth surface for applying your foundation.
Does it feel heavy?
While it is thicker, it doesn't seem to be heavy on your face.
Is this for normal or oily skin, or both?
I know it works well with normal to dry skin, because that is my skin type. I don't know if it would work as well if your skin were oily. I did see one review where the person had a tendency to acne and a T zone, and it worked fine for her.
What about the price?
You can't beat the price for a jar.
My take
This would be a good one to try if you've never tried a primer. it works as good as any I've used, no matter the price.
Have you tried this one? Do you use a primer?
