This oil-free primer instantly refines the look of pores, regulates shine and mattifies the skin to create an immaculate canvas.

Ultra light and cool to the touch, this gel formula keeps a reservoir of water on tap, helping skin stay fresh and hydrated throughout the day, while makeup stays fresh and vibrant for hours on end. This primer works particularly well with skins concerned with controlling oil and shine. * Pure lentil seed extract diminishes the appearance of dilated pores over time for a more refined appearance * Natural bisabolol and butterbur root extract calm and soothe the skin * Vitamins A, C and E help protect the skin from free-radical damage * Oil free.

A Very Quick Take Because The Product Speaks For Itself:

I hated every primer I have ever tried so I never used one …. until Nars.

It is a light gel that absorbs very quickly leaving the skin feeling soft and looking smooth and even toned.  Even when I have a no foundation day, I wear this because it keeps my skin hydrated and matte.  Makeup goes on easily and looks like it was just applied, even 8  plus hours later.  It gives the face an air brushed look, who doesn’t love that?

A pricey item, but it does exactly what it says and it most definitely is a repurchase.
