I'm actually interested in what this is all about. Maybe it will give me glowing skin while controlling my oils?

I have super oily skin so this sounds promising.

It's gorgeous, but I don't think it's a product that drier skin can't benefit from. The consistency and finish is muvh like a serum- not dry to the touch, but not adding any additional oils.

Its about time MAC has a primer catering to oily skin and darker skin alike! Now I can use my P+P Face Protect SPF50 for summer/daytime, and Natural Radiance can be for Photos/Night/etc. I'm excited for both myself and for my kit.

Is this only good to use if you wear foundation or powder?

So it is the end of my workday. I had to blot 3x today. Not bad! I have really oily skin so that is good for me. Get a sample and see how you like it!

Thanks for the report. I wish I was near a MAC so I could get a sample. I hate looking all greasy and shiny. I'm definitely not as bad as I used to be since I took Accutane a few years ago, but I still glow in the not good way.

Igrabbed a sample today, and I can't wait to try it in the morning. I am going to wear it under my sample of UD Naked Skin

I find it interesting that it was an light yellow color instead of white. Very different than usual primers.

I need to do peels. My skin is very oily and acne prone!

I didn't realize peels helped. Do you do them at home or do you see a professional? My friend happened to call today and told me about a new spa in our town owned by an AA woman. Now I may I have a reason to go and help her business out.

Peels work great for me. I honestly feel that it helped me to even the marks on my back to where I can now wear backless stuff, evens my legs, and of course my face. Before peels and accutane I wore foundation more often, but now I wear it because I like it. I do my own peels because having someone else do it is too much $$$.

Hi everyone, what is the primer doing for everyone? Controlling oil? Providing radiance? Hydrating?

Your right. In July, I was at the MAC Counter and the MUA was telling me about it; it's for oily skin.

How do you apply to your own back? You must be one of those beautifully made-up women in Cirque du Soleil lol! Actually, I was just talking today about how Accutane cleared up my back so all the marks could heal up. It is so dramatically different that I can wear tanks and strapless stuff that I wouldn't dare wear before. It sucked b/c I was in the best shape of my life, but had to cover up. I don't really need to wear foundation now either and it is great.

LOL! I'm tall and have long skinny arms so it's not a problem for me. Half the time though I had a friend or my roommate do it for me.
