I tried few primers, but I wasn't using them b/c I don't like this weird silicone finish. Even Tarte silicone free got that feel like my face is wrapped in plastic foil. Basically I felt like a wear primer, every one of them, that's why it was poitless to use them over good sunscreen. I tried Korres primer in the store and felt like a regular very lightweight cream so I bought it.
From the first time I use it on my face with make up I felt in love. There's a huge difference in applying make up after that! I use much less product, it glides, and I mean GLIDES!
A little goes long way, looks like I need just a little bit more than a pea size to do my face. The tube is only 1 oz but using sparingly will last a while. At first looks white but get absorbed quick.
The best thing is that Korres primer is very natural, silicone and paraben free, and actually is not bad or neutral like most primers, but makes skin healthier.I feel my skin breaths and it's young and fresh.
The only primer I'm gonna use.

I've tried a few different primers, but was never sold on them as they made my skin feel greasy and unclean. While I feel like a primer is necessary, especially when using mineral makeup, I couldn't seem to find one that worked well with my combination skin and didn't make me break out.

Korres totally changed that! I use a tiny bit after an oil-free moisturizer to help keep loose powder or mineral makeup to stick all day. Since it's a natural product, it is great for sensitive skin. It doesn't make your skin feel greasy or that you have a lot of product on your face. Even over moisturizer it works into your skin and helps keep your makeup in place.

I've been using this for almost 3 weeks now with no breaking out. It is definitely worth giving a try, especially with the threat of the dreaded summer-melty-face coming soon.

I bought this because of all the good ratings. I love it...smells fresh and lemony! makes my face look great! youll love it.

I just bought a tube of this after sampling it in store and I am in love. I've tried other primers, which looked nice and sort of felt nice, but because they were silicone based it just felt fake and to me it felt like they just sat there. The only time I ever wanted to use one was in the winter time when it didn't feel too hot, but even then I didn't really want to use them. But now with the Korres primer, I love it. It smells nice, a bit citrusy, but not too heavy and it applies nicely, like a light lotion. The skin feels soft and smooth and the makeup seems to last longer too after applying over the primer. It feels nice enough to want to just use it as a moisturizer as well!

I purchased this primer mainly because of the positive reviews and I love the Korres rose moisturizer! That is a dream. This primer, however, smells not awful, but not what I expected. It feels like any old cream, not a primer. I am currently using Lancome LA BASE, which is lovely. The Korres does not allow the makeup to "glide" on, [for me] Am I doing something wrong? Did I expect too much? I would have loved this to be a positive review. Won't purchase again.
