Lovely and effective primer
This is such an effective product for priming the skin. Though I've used the Laura Mercier Oil Free Tinted Moisturiser for a couple of years now, I realise how much better my skin looked when I use this primer underneath! It creates a smooth canvas that's almost matte though also has a natural sheen to it. The tinted moisturiser smoothed over the primer so perfectly, and gave me a really natural look that was also even and radiant. I will now always use this combination of products! I would also happily use the primer by itself for days when I don't feel the need to wear more makeup; it makes my skin look great. Highly recommended

Great base
I love the Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser but this product takes it to a new level. Gives a great finish and literally smooths away imperfections. Biggest difference is in under eye shadow; it really does ‘blue’ as promised and makes my skin look so much better. Highly recommend. Does not feel heavy but significantly improves your base look

It’s ok
I got this in my Space NK calendar and was excited to use it as I do like Laura Mercier products. It had a very pleasant smell and seemed quite light when I squeezed it on to my palm, however when I applied it to my face, it seemed to turn quite sticky and difficult to blend in. Once I put some light tinted moisturiser on top, it felt like my face was caked in thick cream. It’s certainly not for me.

Foundation doesn't blend
I wanted to love this primer because I love other products from this brand, including their other primers. It has a mattifying texture and minimizes the look of pores. However, my foundation wouldn't blend nicely with this primer on. It may help to know that my foundation is not Laura Mercier, but it's still a good quality brand and should not be affected over a good primer.

Does not blend
Yes it does have a blurring effect but you can't put the oil free tinted moisturiser over the top as it doesn't blend. You just end up with a thick smudgy mess on your face.
