Obsessed. This baby has been out of stock for what seems like an eternity and I’m so happy I finally got my hands on it! I love this primer. It really does grip your makeup in place and helps it stay all day. It does have a tacky feel when applied but that’s how you know your makeup ain’t moving for nothing or nobody. Definitely worth the price as a little goes a long way and it actually does what it says 😍

I am in my late 20's/early 30's with oily, light tone skin and blue eyes. My hair is red, processed with normal texture.
I have been trying to find a good primer for ages, something which makeup sticks too and lasts from day to night. I have tried everything from By terri, Kevein Aucoin, laura mercier, hourglass, to cheaper brands like NYX, L'oriel and mac but have found that the foundation just slips off. I have always matched my foundation to primer in terms of base (water to water, silicone to silicone) so they doesn't slide off each other but nothing was working. This is water based so works best with water based foundations. This is great because it comes in two sizes a small a 10ml and a 45ml. I bought the 10ml at £13 pounds which lasted me AGES considering i was using it everyday and amazing that i could try it for such a small price. I then bought the 45ml (this is massive) which was SO CHEAP at £27 usually you dont even get 30ml for that so this pricetag is insane. Initially it felt really tacky in my hand which put me off but after moisturising (and waiting a few minutes) i warmed it up in my fingers and patted it into my skin. I would suggest waiting a few more minutes before applying makeup as it is very tacky and needs to settle on the face. It makes my pores look smaller and flawless before foundation application. WOW the staying power is amazing!!!!! Its restored my faith in primers its amazing and i would suggest to everyone to try the 10ml as its a great introduction to the product. I will be trying to use more MILK products as i love it

I am in my late 20's/early 30's with normal, olive tone skin and brown eyes. My hair is medium brown, normal with normal texture.
This is my favourite primer! I’ve tried loads. I have really dry skin and large pores and struggle to find a primer to suit my needs. When I wear this my makeup survives 14 hour shifts and minimises my pores, however they don’t disappear. If you do have oily skin I can see it making your skin looking greasy. But the best primer I’ve ever used!

Honestly I would give this zero stars if I could, I absolutely hated it! I was so excited to try it, especially given the hype around it, but it left me sorely disappointed. First let's talk price; £13 for 10ml? A bit steep but I can live with that when you read about all the ingredients that are jam packed into the tiny tube. Next; packaging. I actually do like the look of the primer. It's unique and definitely stands out on your vanity. My issue is the actual product. It gave me my worst makeup day in a long time! After application you leave the primer to settle into the skin for about a minute, but honestly it was so tacky that it just clung onto any makeup for dear life. To the point where when I went over it with my beauty blender, it took huge patches away leaving me looking splotchy, cakey, flakey, you name it! No matter how I tried to fix it, I just couldn't get it to work with my skin. I used my most trusted products so I know that it was definitely the primer. Normally I would give it another chance but it's a definite no from me. Save your pennies and buy something else!

@MichelleC@Amestarz oh no I'm sorry guys! It's just my opinion but it really was bad on me. I've got combination skin so I don't know know if that made a difference. 🤷♂️
