Dry skin has always been something that I have battled with. Especially in the winter, my dry skin has been even flakier and more patchy. The rough patchy skin seems to be emphasized under foundation, and I am always on struggling to achieve the perfect, dewy foundation look. When I first came across this primer from Loreal, I thought it was similar to Benefit High beam. A liquid-like, runny, thin, ultra shimmery highlighting product. However I was extremely surprised by the consistency of this product. It's not the least bit greasy, but glides on smoothly over any uneven texture, or dry skin. It is very glowy but not the least bit shimmery. It gives a moonlit type of glow but isn't opaque white enough to make your skin look gray and white. It gives my skin a perfect, dewy look and is great underneath any foundation. I typically use my fingers to apply it. It's not exactly a thick, cream primer but definitely not a clear gel primer either. I don't find that it makes my skin more oily and it really helps reduce my dry patches. It retails for around $11-15, which is extremely expensive for a loreal product, but is not as expensive as a high end product. Overall, I am head over heels in love with this primer and will for sure be repurchasing it once I run out.
