This Hourglass Primer does a wonderful job of creating a silky smooth base for foundation. It made my makeup look amazingly and it was longer lasting. If you have normal to dry skin that isn’t acne prone and you have no problem with silicones (which can be completely fine for most!) then you should try this primer. I have previously used Hourglass and have loved their products. The packaging is also lovely. I do not always get along with silicones, so I will continue to use the mineral version. I appreciate that Hourglass has options that work well for different people, skin types, and needs. Based on my experience (silicones break me out), I have no issues recommending this, but won’t repurchase.

I love Hourglass products and this primer did not disappoint. It's blurring, smoothing and gives my face a beautiful airbrushed effect. Yes it does what it claims to do. Yes it's worth it. Yes it's expensive. But if you're looking for a spot on dupe try Touch in Sol No Poreblem primer. It's more then half the cost. They just launched an even more intense version No Poreblem Hybrid primer which I absolutely am going to purchase.Again love love love Hourglass products but you don't have to spend a lot of coin if you don't want to. That's the great thing about beauty... there are an abundance of options that will suit everyone's needs & wants.

After a couple weeks use I want to say it didn’t do anything for my skin except mattify it. I used it on my bare skin and it mattified it but did not fill in my pores. Then I applied it on my face and then put foundation over it, I used born this way foundation by two faced and Gorgio Armani luminous silk. I’ll be honest I liked it better by itself. I didn’t try it with a serum or tint but I feel it would be better with such a thing. I like that it doesn’t have color it’s just transparent. It dries down on my oily skin and makes it feel like I put powder over my skin to eliminate shiny spots which is a plus! However it did nothing for my pores with or without foundation. I do also like the bottle and the packaging. At the end of the day I did end up looking oily and ... MoreAfter a couple weeks use I want to say it didn’t do anything for my skin except mattify it.

Overall, it was an okay product but super bummed it didn’t fill in my pores.
