Photo Finish Primer by Smashbox

This is by far my favouraite primer I've tried. It helps to control my oils and helps my makeup glide on smoothly and last all day.

I've not tried many other primers before and surely this is the best I've had. Smooth texture, only need a tiny amount, my skin feels silky straight after applying. I use it with smashbox foundation and it is like a dream, my makeup last all day and it isn't drying my skin either. I recommend it to anyone!

I just don't understand the hype with this product at all! It didn't make my pores look any smaller and my face felt (&looked like) butter. I found it really Difficult to apply my foundation and my concealer rubbed off my face as I alllied. Really let down.

✨This Primer is honestly the best Primer ever! The texture after application is absolutely to die for, so smooth and so soft. It keeps the longevity of your make up to literally last all day. The base it provides for Foundation is fantastic and makes the application of it so easy and no go cakey. My pores look so much better using this product, it literally covers them all and creates a true blank canvas to work with. It works really well with my oily to combination skin and doesn’t feel greasy or heavy. This is an absolute MUST for your beauty haul!

This primer is a classic. Reminds me of a primer I once bought from inglot but mostly because it is SO SMOOOTH. You get good value for your money as you don't need to use a lot of this, is glides on like a dream and does an amazing job of helping set your makeup! This did wonders for my pores too! Highly recommend:D

I unisex my pores! Used for a few years and still Absolutely love it! Don't think I'd ever switch and I've tried lots of different ones too

This was one of the first primers that my Mother ever bought for me and I always come back to it! It's got a soft and smooth texture that sinks into skin, fills in pores and leaves a velvety texture, perfect for a flawless foundation application each time. It doesn't have a scent, and doesn't leave my skin feeling or looking shiny or oily. It's the perfect primer for a full day of heavy makeup - weddings etc, and just as good on an everyday basis too. It's a must for everyone's makeup bags, even if you'll only use it on special occasions, because that's when the magic happens!

I dont care if this cost me £1000 id still buy it. It have saved my make up life and is the perfect base for any foundation. Its goes on so smooth and is soooo silky. Makes my make up last forever.

I unfortunately have to say I don't think this product is worth £25. I use a lot of smashbox products and am reasonably disappointed with this one. It seems to dry my skin up, and I also have recently found that a different Primer at £6.99 does me more favours. I also feel that to make a difference I have to use more of this product at one time, than other primers I've tried. Smashbox is fab, this product just isn't for me!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this primer. It is my ultimate go-to primer. I have changed and used other things but i always go back to this. The finish is unbelievable and sometimes i can just go without makeup and just put primer on my face. It minimises any lines and wrinkles and minimises pores. The effect it has when my foundation is put on top is absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend this primer enough it is the top rated for a reason!!!

If you are looking for an everyday primer, look no further. It is oil-free and definitely makes your foundation last all day, without sliding off. It sets a perfect base and smooths over imperfections giving a flawless look Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a basic simple primer, however I have not given it 5 stars as I think it is very over priced for what it is

This has to be my favourite primer, smoothes my skin and closes/hides my pores my foundation looks so much better and I find I don't use as much either.

I adore the consistency of this primer and I feel that because it is in a gel formula I love how it is on my skin. I feel like because its think and sinks into your skin the foundation lasts so much longer and I actually feel like it is filling in my pores. I use it everyday and it never stops amazing me. since I have started to use this my makeup has lasted longer and I adore it. my favourite primer of all time and I would recommend to everyone. if you haven't tried it you need to it is amazing and I love everything about it.

Love this primer! It makes my skin soft and smooth. It also made applying my foundation (powder or liquid) much easier and the foundation sat on my skin well. The primer was also very light yet still contained important vitamins and minerals for a healthy face. would recommend to everyone!

This is my all time favourite primer! It is absolutely fantastic! I use it along with the Smashbox Studio Skin foundation and they work together perfectly! It creates a wonderful smooth texture to apply my foundation on. I would 100% Recommend this primer! I have not found one that has beaten it yet!

I have brought this primer soo many times it is amazing it is however my 2nd favourite.This primer really helps you prepare your skin for a smooth foundation base , and helps your foundation last all day . You only need a pea sized amount to do your whole face (start from the t-zone area) .

This primer provides you with a smooth, oil-balanced, canvas-ready face. It feels like soft rubber, which, once spread across the face, creates a matt, transparent finish. When make-up is applied, it goes on much smoother. There are however cheaper dupes out there such as the Collection Primed & Ready Primer. Disadvantage = expensive.

Once i went to boots to buy a primer cause my make upAlways looked unhealthy and scrambled and i looked online that smashbox make up is long lasting and popular in youtube tutorials, so i went o buy it i bought small tube for tester. I loved the creamynice texture and softness it gave my face so i went and bought bigger bottle????

A little really does go a long way! Feels like an oil going on but sinks into the skin quickly. Perfect for my dry skin and lasts all day.

This is on par with my Benefit Porefessional primer in that my makeup will stay on all day (even when I'm sweating like a pig in the gym) and also very mattifying. It feels just like a moisturiser - it's not at all heavy, although maybe slightly too oily sometimes. Still, if you allow it to sink in you shouldn't be too affected. I would 1 billion percent recommend.

Always used this primer. I think it's good but not amazing it takes a while to sink into my skin. However I feel like it does leave my makeup looking great

No good for oily skin this made me feel greasy and had to wash off its awful

It's amazing it leaves your skin silky smooth and pore free it so comes in different type so u can tailor it to your skins needs

Absolutely love this primer It left my skin so silky and so soft and I really didn't need to use that much product I just hate that the price is so expensive.

My Holy Grail primer! I have dry skin and oily T-zone but this primer makes it really matte and even all across my face. It lets my make up stay all day and lets all my cream make ups really easy to apply and blend. On my second tube now and would still repurchase.

I absolutely love this primer although it feels like it dries my skin so I feel like I have to apply a moisturiser beforehand. You only really need a pea size for your whole face so it takes a while to use up the whole bottle so that makes it worth it's money. After I've applied it my skin is smooth and disguises all my pores/lines. Basically ticks all the boxes

Such a Lovely product makes my foundation goes on ever so smoothly. Would definitely buy again!

This definitely does what it says on the packet! Its a lovely primer, and does give you a lovely photo finish as it claims. Definitely makes my foundation last longer.

gives your skin a very smooth silky effect, great base for foundation and defiantly noticed an increase on foundation wear time!

I like this primer, it leaves my face feeling soft and silk like, although it left my dry skin feeling very tight and 'peely' after I removed it. Other than that I can not fault this.

I really like this primer, it is really silky upon first applying it. After it sinks it made my skin touchably softer; my foundation sat smother and look more airbrushed. However I didn't see much of an increase in my foundation wear time (on combo skin)

Love this product. • easy to use • no colour tint • don't need a lot of it • great base before foundation• good value for money

Personally, as much as the reviews go, I don't recommend this to people with sensitive skin as my face produced lots of spots the next day! However, I tried it out on my mum and it was flawless for her. Her face felt soft and that her make up looks fresh all day. So I do recommend this product but not to people with sensitive skin!

Beautiful primer, makes your skin look flawless and feels silky, however I don't see a difference in lasting power of my makeup. I prefer primers that make your makeup last.

Highly recommend this primer, leaves a perfectly smooth base for applying foundation onto. Makes my make-up last all day, and helps any foundation look good in photos.

I highly recommend this!! It leaves your face feeling soft and silky and your foundation goes on really smoothly, it's great for oily skin and I find that when I'm out all day my make up still looks fresh and stays put perfectly.

Good product, leaves skin feeling silky. Not worth original price though. Would love to buy it again but it's just to much money for something I could get cheaper on a high street brand

This product is not good for oily skin and is not worth the price smash box charge it's has a great finish and leaves your skin looking flawless and keeps your make up on all day and night

I received a free sample walking through the train statin and it is a really good primer. I don't think it's worth the original price, it just does the job of a primer but it is really good. The best primer I've tried is definitely benefit porefessional.

Never used primers until I got this because they never really worked but I have to say this works really well has a great finish which out any other products in top lasts all day really good would recommend it to anyone who was looking for a good primer

I'd love this primer if my skin wasn't as oily as it makes my foundation not crease, however it doesn't remove the signs of pores. It is definitely the best smashbox primer as I have tried the anti blemish one which is terrible. The product does spread far and little is needed which allows it to last a long time

I love this product! It's one of the best primers I have ever tried, unlike others I have used before this one gives a great finish even on its own. I do not always want to apply a layer of foundation over the top of a primer but sometimes I find that a product does not look right on its own and needs that layer of foundation, but not this one. It keeps my t-zone shine free all day long.

Fills my pores flawlessly, foundation glides on beautifully afterwards. Lasts all day and never creases.

Tips is one of my favourite primers! You do not need to uses a lot of this product as I find it spreads quite far. It leaves my skin will a smooth blank canvas. Out of all the smashbox primers I find this the most fitting to my normal skin but I do think this would fit those who have a more oily skin type.

I got this in a free gift box from smash box and I loved it! Never thought of using the primer but it's amazing,make up stays on fabbb :)))

Never thought of using foundation primer but since i was already getting eyeshadow primer i thought i would try it out. And again like with the eyeshadow primer i saw a night and day difference. Again you get what you pay for.

This was the first primer I ever used and after many betrayals, it's probably my favourite!

I've never properly inspected how long this product allows my makeup to last but obviously far longer than if I wasn't wearing any primer. Sets in quite quickly smooths out the colours in my skin which tends to be quite blotchy and allows me to apply my makeup easier.

I am a Smashbox fan. Depending on the time of day i use either this primer or Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer SPF20 Dermaxyl Complex. They both are great at minimising the look of my pores and making my foundation last longer. Great product

Primer for me is now a make up must have and this is definitely one of the best! If i'm honest, it's a toss up between this and Benefit POREfessional. You only need a small amount to make pores disappear and skin to appear smooth and silky. Foundation goes on so much better with this than without.
