Not the same

This is the worst packaging and the product is not as good as it used to be. The formula separates so you get oil one time, a blob the next, or it doesn’t pump out at all. I’ll be looking for a replacement brand.

Great product but lacking in amount

Product is great but man, it’d be great if there was more in the bottle. Feels like a chintzy amount for a high price

Worst packaging

I have been using Bare Minerals foundation and primer since 2008. This is the 4th different packaging they have put the original primer in and it is horrible. One tube used to last me for a good amount of time and now it empties so quickly. Also how much is left at the bottom when it stops pumping out??? Can cut it open like you could the tubes. Also, did the product change? In all these years why is this the first time the primer smells like chemicals? It is terrible. Please go back to the tube and the primer that didn't smell bad.

Please bring back the original

I went looking for the bare bareVitamins version of Prime Time today, but was disappointed that this new “original “ version didn’t match up with the old look and feel, so I moved on to other products. When you reformulate this to the real original Prime Time, I may check back again.

Bad reaction to this "original" primer

I loved the Original Primer and used it for many years without any issues, but this one is no way the real original one as advertised. I developed a terrible allergic reaction with this one. My face became very swollen and itchy with tiny papules after first application. Not sure what Bare Minerals is putting in their newer products because I reacted the same way with the new Skinlongevity serum, which I never had a problem with and also loved (the "gold" one) before they changed the formula.

Not as good as it use to be

I’m not sure if I received old stack or if the product changed but more often than that when I go to put on my make up this flakes off my skin

Not the original

I’m so disappointed. This is absolutely not the original formula and to call it that is an insult. I find this formula to be even worst then the last. Please just bring back the actual original formula, this makes no sense.

Smoothing primer

I love the way this primer makes my face feel really smooth. Feels like a great base for my makeup. I think it makes my makeup application smoother with less pores showing.
