Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Radiance Review

Whenever I used to go for an outing or a party, my make-up used to be patchy. Face used to be dull and dry. I thought it is because I have normal to dry skin. I use to see patches on my face and at times at the end, there would be no makeup, it used to vanish resulting in a very dull look. Then, I tried a foundation primer from Smashbox.

“Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer Radiance”

Primer creates an extra layer between our skin and makeup. It is used to help makeup last longer, smooth the skin surface, and even out the skin tone.

I applied this primer after my CTM regime i.e. cleansing, toning and moisturizing. It has an orange tint in it, of which I was a little afraid of first, but when applied, was easily spreadable and there was no orange tint on the face. Only a pea size amount was enough for face and neck. Leave it for a few minutes to dry completely. It feels velvety smooth and evens the skin tone. Then apply foundation and rest of makeup.

                 There were some points which I noticed after its use:

·      It prepared my skin for makeup.

·      The foundation glides smoothly and does not settle into creases or wrinkles.

·      It contains some glimmering particles which gave extra radiance. My face was glowing.

·      The makeup was long lasting and intact till the end.

·      It kept my skin hydrated.

·      Prevented makeup creasing.

·      It gave amazing look in photographs.

I have tried quite a few face primers before, but this one works the best at minimizing pores, smoothing imperfections and making tired skin look glowing. It also covers age spots and leaves a beautiful glow. It is really amazing product. It can be applied alone or with makeup. This is a lovely primer and would strongly recommend a must have in your makeup kits.

Do let me know of your experiences with this product.
