Thank you Mac-Guy!

Sounds very good and I will get both P+P products for sure!Have to try them...

Moisture Infusion could be perfect for my very dry skin.

I wonder what kind of texture the Skin Smoother has....is it a powder?A gel powder?Or a cream?

hmmm... none of the above, really. I'd describe it as a very, very smooth, very very soft waxy/pasty texture. It's very light in texture and spreads easily. It's probably siliconed based, but I don't know for sure. It's similar to NARS skin smoothing face prep, but possibly even softer if I remember correctly.

Thank you very much itching2snitch!

That sounds interesting and I think that it could be very helpful for me to even out my skin surface.

Is the skin smoother gonna be something that will finally help hide my forehead creases?! They are unsightly and normally hidden by a fringe but not always, i could do with something to make them less obvious

The mua in my local store described the compact as having a balm texture. I wonder is this the pore minimiser we heard about?

I'm a bit confused that it is a compact. How should one use it? I have the Line Filler and my Mac told me that I should put it over foundation (but under finishing powder I guess).

Wondering about this and if the serum has any retinol, vitamin C or other skin texturizing products.

For those who've already been testing the two new primers, how do you like them?

I'm in love with both, the serum and the compact, though I do not like that it adds another brush or two to my stash to wash. :)

I am really looking forward to the compact. Did you think it covered pores well? What brush are you using with it? Does it come with a sponge? How would you slot it into your routine?........I love using the p&p skin enhancer in illuminate as my primer and I am thinking I would use the compact mainly on my cheeks where I have a problem with large pores but I don't know how I would layer the 2 products ie use the compact before or after the skin enhancer....any thoughts would be appreciated!

I use the 191 as it picks up the product the best. I generally do not recommend to layer too many products on top of each other, unless you use in different parts of your face (e.g. if you don't use the skin enhancer on your cheeks, you can certainly apply the smoother on this part). I strongly advise to use a synthetic brush with the compact. Finger application is not only unhygienic, it will also result that the compact will look like a big mess. I don't think a sponge would work unless you use a new one each time (which might become really expensive). It's basically as brush-on product.

Cool thanks. Did you think it covered pores well or what do you think is it's main purpose?
