Complexion Rescue is better

I’ve been experiencing unusual redness and bought this hoping it would help, but I didn’t notice a difference. I put it on half my face before applying the Complexion Rescue and there was no difference. I wouldn’t buy this again, but I highly recommend the Complexion Rescue.

Terrible smell

I just got this and was excited to try it. I used it this morning, went about my day but kept getting a whiff of some horrid smell. I couldn't figure out what it was, was it me, my clothes, something I stepped in? I had never smelled this smell before; as soon as I got home I took off my clothes, still smelled it. The only thing I did different today was use this primer. I squeezed a little out and instantly THAT'S THE SMELL! I was going crazy over this smell all day it was the primer I used this morning. I don't understand why something has to smell so bad. Washed my face twice and thankfully the smell is gone, save yourself some money and skip this one.

Redness

My face is red a lot. I tried the reducing primer and it helps tone down the red. It has helped me and I would recommend.

Wish It Were Better

The redness-reducing primer doesn’t seem to reduce much of the redness on my face. It takes a little longer to dry than original Prime Time primer, and it’s a bit sticky until it dries (sticks to brushes). It is good for keeping powder on my face and prevents oiliness for a long time.

Doesn't work.

This hasn't noticeably reduced redness at all, and also has an unappealing scent. Not worth the cost.

Smells like rubber and minimal coverage

Product provides a nice base for foundation but it has an overwhelming odor that smells like rubber. I also don’t think the green really counteracts the red once I rub it in. Would not purchase again.
