However, I just bought the YSL blur perfector and love it. I actually use it midday (tap it on my skin) and it refreshes my makeup, takes down the shine. Really like it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118832875330108827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-29672721680320796662015-08-11T13:06:50.620-04:002015-08-11T13:06:50.620-04:00I'm not much of a primer girl, I guess I was &...I'm not much of a primer girl, I guess I was "blessed" with dry skin and don't feel the need for any mattifying products. However, I have about 3-4 samples that I always feel like I SHOULD use, but somehow always forget to. It's funny how the beauty industry (especially youtube) has made primer (and now contouring/highlighting/strobing) a MUST in ones daily routine.<br /><br />Although I love the packaging for these products, I really couldn't help but think that Mally did it first YEARS ago so I don't really get the hype. YSL and Guerlain both have these weird primers with gold flecks in them, and I have never gotten the allure, it's not like our skin is going to absorb the gold, so where do they thing its going to go? sorry, i just don't get it. <br /><br />Love your honesty in this (and other) reviews.ahhhsoNeohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11308961353635087232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-38625339742614607282015-08-11T01:41:38.086-04:002015-08-11T01:41:38.086-04:00Lovely....It looks natural, flawless and poreless....Lovely....It looks natural, flawless and poreless.

Sure, it looks beautiful suspended in the bottle like that but glitter in a primer just doesn't work. The compact sounds very intriguing though, and looks pretty too.emmabovaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10639685984279320297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-48863491904384106502015-08-09T18:35:52.169-04:002015-08-09T18:35:52.169-04:00The primer w/ gold flecks -- that description remi...The primer w/ gold flecks -- that description reminds me of Guerlain L'Or Radiance Pure Gold Primer, have you tried this one, Monika? I think I tried this when I did a Guerlain makeover, the effect is exactly what you described: flecks of gold that can still be visible over foundation.<br /><br />You took words right out of my mouth when you mentioned about Mally and Covergirl. I remember watching Sali Hughes YouTube about this YSL product (must be a while back - like the beginning of this year) and immediately thought, anyone who has watched QVC would know that Mally has this type of product for a long time already. That said, I've never tried it in person -- in general I do not use much primer but I can see how it would mattify "better" than regular powder. Great descriptions and explanations of products. Thanks for the reviews!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179420902933819052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-36789997754497695832015-08-09T13:51:40.877-04:002015-08-09T13:51:40.877-04:00Lol wait, a primer with glitter?!

Similar to the Blur Perfector, it's primer in solid form -- which is just a great idea. Works under makeup, and for touchups also works over. <br /><br />Something no one talks about: I've been using vitamin C serum (Timeless) and because it's doing such a great job, my skin surface is almost glassy. This translates to shiny in certain light situations, even though it's not oil that's causing it. I use the mattifier to kill that, in addition to blurring pores and also to give my foundation something to hang onto. <br /><br />Try the ELF stuff for $6 and if the concept works for you, consider the YSL.

My problem, especially when it comes to my T-zone, is the oiliness. Oil-controlling primers help with that! For the moment I am on Dior Pore Minimizer, which I do like.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00409850103638680902noreply@blogger.com
