This is the Smashbox The Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer.
I finished a sample size - a VERY small sample size. I got maybe 3 uses out of it. But this is one of my all time favorite primers! It blurs my skin so well, and it makes my makeup last all day long. It's super easy to blend, and doesn't pill my makeup when applying it on top. It is on the pricy side, but I truly have not found a drugstore blurring primer that works as well as this does!
When it comes to primers, I’ve found that the texture and wear-time are crucial for a flawless makeup base. The Smashbox Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer truly stands out because of how effortlessly it blends into the skin. From my experience, even a small amount goes a long way, which is great considering the higher-end price point. One of the key benefits I noticed is its ability to minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines, creating a smooth canvas for foundation. Unlike some primers that can cause makeup to pill or slide off throughout the day, this one keeps everything locked in place, allowing for a long-lasting finish. Makeup feels lightweight and comfortable, which is a big plus for all-day wear. My skin tends to get oily in certain areas, and this primer has a subtle mattifying effect without over-drying, which is a delicate balance to achieve. Compared to drugstore alternatives I've tried, this formula offers a more sophisticated blur effect and better longevity. For those hesitant about investing in a pricier primer, trying a sample size like I did can be a great way to test if it suits your skin type and makeup preferences. Overall, the Smashbox primer is a trusted product to add to your routine for that flawless, radiant complexion, especially if you want your makeup to last from morning through the evening events.
