Improves my skin
I have been using this product For 4 years. I love this Product, I think It makes My skin look dewy And gets rid of redness and blotchiness on my skin. It Works well With my foundation. Looks like I am not wearing make up.

Not a fan
I brought this item because I love highlighters and brightening products, but this is just yellow glitter in a bottle. I don't know how I expected it to be 'illuminating', but I see what they mean now. So if you like a lot of shimmer, then this is for you.

A little too much glow
I understand the sun kissed highlighted glow is on trend. However, for my age or my comfort level this primer has just a little too much shimmer for my taste. That shouldn’t take away from the quality of the product though. That’s just my personal preference. It does feel very silky going on.

When putting it on it can seem scary but don’t worry because once your makeup is on top it shows that natural glow

Personally I am having trouble applying this product. The texture glops. Can it be combined with something to smooth out the texture?
the elf team
·3 years ago
The Illuminating Primer should be applied sparingly (one pump) and should not glop. Please contact customer care if you find the texture to be clumpy at elfcare@elfcosmetics.com.

ahhh. I just found it, under Ingredients. It's less than a half ounce. So, it's just a sample, really. For that price that makes sense.
