yea mac has the prep n primer smoothing something. it initially came in a compact but dnt know if it does anymore. I basically rubbed it along the areas of my face where my pores are more BAM to smooth em out but it IS more greasy to me. I have combo skin just fyi but MUFE smoothing primer is the best I've come across tho becuz it's more matte-y for me.

Yes, yes-------was that the MAC MAC Prep & Prime Skin Smoother? I remember that round compact and white
product, pretty much the consistency of the YSL Blur Perfector.

My YSL samples come tomorrow with my order of my Embryolisse (I'm almost out). I'm looking forward to trying them out before the event on Sunday. That way, if I fall in love with either, I can pick it up Sunday morning.

Which, I went to RSVP today for the event and my usual store was "At Capacity!"

So I called them and explained I'm VIBR and really wanted to come to that specific store, and they're going to manually input me onto the list. And I can still bring a guest. I might drag my husband if I decide I don't want to go alone. But seriously? At capacity? None of the other stores for like, 100 miles are at capacity. Good grief.

Yes I was talking about that one

I am not liking the TE gold primer. Too much slip. Too much silicone. It's loaded. That shit slides of my face in two seconds and my hands I have to wash asap how sticky they are... It might work better during the winter

Yeah, I feel the same way about the Primer with the gold in it. Meh. I had a decent experience with it once, but overall I just didn't like it and was forcing myself to use the sample. The slippery silicone was just TOO much for me & the glitter flecks all over my face annoyed me. Lol, oh well.

I'm using a really, really small amount and I'm loving it-----pretty much on the days that wearing makeup is bearable.

I still haven't observed the gold flecks on me---I must be using so little of it they don't show up!

Lol, I may just be really sensitive to it. I used a tiny amount, bc it's so slippery, and somehow would end up with tiny flecks all over. I guess the sample I got from sephora must have been extra glittery

I didn't get the full size but tried the sample and pretty much feel the same!! Probably my skin type!! But I am not really into silicony primers either!! The blur perfecter one, I tried patting along the t zone after foundation and it seems to have a nice blurring effect !! Not sure if I like it enough to invest in the full size though!! :sigh:

Monsy · Jul 28, 2015

well I am glad I am not the only one. and yes i can see gold flecks all over my face which i do not mind since i cover them with foundation anyway

i just think that this kind of silicone heavy formula is outdated. there are so many primers on the market with the never lighter improved formula without that much silicone (or no silicone at all)

yes this kind of formula was a HIT when it was first made and smashbox came out with their primer... but that was years ago

Perhaps the gold flecks don't show on me because of my coloring

I feel left out now----**stomps feet---I want gold flecks---at least once!
