Review : Laura Mercier Foundation Primer (Oil Free)

Front and back view
I was looking for something that would extend the life of my id bareMinerals foundation during hotter days, so I decided to give this a try. My skin is oily/combo so the oil-free aspect of this primer really drew me in. I like the consistency. It doesn't feel thick and heavy. The smell is not exactly pleasant but bearable, I guess.

I wear this in the same manner I would wear a moisturiser. A little goes a long way with this. If you apply too much, it would just end up making your face oilier.
It totally feels like moisturiser so if you're the super oily type you can skip your moisturiser completely when using this
After applying this, I give it about 30 seconds to set and then I start applying my mineral powder foundation. I do notice that the foundation does last longer on my skin but it hasn't helped with the oiliness on my T-zone. I still need to blot at least once during the day but I don't need to touch up with extra powder.

I would recommend this for those of you with only slightly skin but not if you are oily/combo like me.

Price : ¥2670 (RM88)
