How many gals (or guys) use primer for your face? It gone trend long enough that even e.l.f has a knock off. I love it for my combo skin and that it makes make-up go on my dryer places so much more smoothly.

Do you use it? Have you tried it?

Only on my eyelids when I use shadow, but I am prone to break outs and too busy to do that step on my whole face each day. Its probably great for photographs, as it reduces shine.

Primer? Do you mean foundation, or base make-up? I use it to even out my skintone...not all over my face....

Yep, I use the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer or the Clinique Turnaround Concentrate once in awhile. The foundation really lays nicely after those.

I've used Laura Geller's spackle and Mally's. Both are good, but I don't always remember to use it. Not sure that it really works for me or I'd use it all the time.

Sometimes. If I'm going to wear foundation I'll use it, but I almost never wear foundation, just concealer.

On occasion.

I like Guerlain's L'or Radiance (I also have Meteorites Light-Diffusing Perfecting Primer, but I'm not in love with the consistency or fragrance.)

I don't get the hype about Smashbox's PhotoFinish primers. I have a few of them and I'm not a fan. I didn't like Nars' either.

I have under eye circles and freckles and age spots on my face. What primer do you think would work best on my face? Thanks!
