Great Primer

I am impressed with this primer! I used the Clinique primer before it was replaced with a new primer. I tried this primer and it is as good and even better. Good value for the size. Highly recommend!

Excellent product

Amazing stuff. I originally got a sample of this in my Ipsy bag and immediately had to order the full size! This cream makes my face look 10 years younger!! And I will always purchase from Macys since they haven’t given in to the Trump regime! Thank you Macys!!

Actually works!

I tired this out because a Macy’s employee told me about it, after trying it for a few days I could tell a hug difference on how my makeup appeared throughout the day. I did not have to pat my face all day like I typically do because I have combo skin, oily and dry. My makeup also looked much smoother, felt like a professional had done my makeup! I would definitely recommend to everyone who also deals with being oily and dry.
