Rimmel London Stay Matte Primer, Transparent, 30 ml

My makeup stays on for the whole day 10/10 would totally recommend for oily skins

it works so well. love the matte effect

Melts into skin , works well.

This has some hood and bad points. I usually use a 20 pound primer which I tried to purchase similar cheaper. This has the same texture as my expensive one so when people say it's to think that is actually a good thing not bad. You use a tiny amount and spread rather than rub. Use a brush if you have a spare and apply like foundation then tap in. It doesn't fill pores as well as the expensive one but does do a little bit of good so will give that side 3 stars. The main reason I buy expensive is for the matt effect and to stop oil which I get within minutes with a cheap primer thus actually held up but only till lunch so arpund 4 hours of use then it failed me. So I can't say it's bad but I can't say it is good compared to my expensive one. It slightly hides pores, applys really well leaving no sticky residue and dries well, it just doesn't last as long as I need it to. So I give it 5 stars, for a cheap primer it does an amazing job and probably the best cheap one I have used. My skin: acne prone 30 plus year old with large pores and a very oily t - zone (this did not block my pores either)

I bought this primer having read rave reviews from beauty bloggers as a cheaper everyday alternative to my Wild About Beauty Serum Primer (which I love!). Having used it for a few weeks now, I'm not impressed. I find it a bit stubborn to apply, resulting in a thin layer over the skin rather than being partially absorbed into the skin, partially acting as a barrier. The Wild About Beauty serum has the benefit of sinking into the skin a bit to keep my skin hydrated, as well as acting as a lovely base to apply my foundation to. Using my Real Techniques Buffing Brush and Clinique Liquid Foundation using both primers, I've found that my base is really difficult to apply when using the Rimmel Primer as it doesn't blend or move around the skin as well to create a natural finish. I also found that half way through the day, the foundation was creasing considerably into parts of my face which doesn't happy even when I apply with fingers with no primer. When using the Wild About Beauty serum by comparison, the product glides on and creates a lovely finish.Overall I wouldn't buy this again and will be looking to some of the other drugstore brands for a budget every day primer.

Fantastic coverage . Even covered the red marks I had on my cheeks . Accompanied either foundation on top . I am very happy either way this. I would definitely recommend this .

Love this primer I've been using it for years and I'm just sad you can't buy in the shops over here in the UK
