Why it's great: "This is a great primer to specifically hide large pores, a job not all primers can do," says one reader. "It works well to also blur fine lines and helps makeup stay put all day." Another user notes that it "feels like nothing on" and that it "doesn't seem to sit on top of skin."

Purminerals color correcting primer is the absolute best, it neutralizes under eye darkness as well as the redness from zits and acne scars. I honestly could wear it alone, it stays on the entire day and basically does the job of foundation. My skin has never looked more even, it keeps oil at bay and yet is not drying whatsoever.

I really like the smashbox primer, but it gets pricy so i dont use it everyday.

I really love The Body Shop Skin Primer Matte It. It feels like the Smashbox primer, but at a much better price (especially if you catch one of the 50% off sales).

I never buy anything sally hansen, but that is a good price. I was surprised it got a good rating. As much as smashbox feels great i will probably check out another brand from all these listings.

I would like to see some more mass market, drugstore brands on here.

The DHC Velvet Skin coat is a good primer. Prime Time too. I was very surprised not to see Clarins Beauty Flash Balm on this list. It is the gold standard. Any time I have a client that does not take care of their skin I use it first. It is very forgiving and makes skin look like silk.

Been wanting a good primer. This will help narrow the choices.

Except for the first one, they are all so expensive!

I am familiar with most of these brands.. makes me want to explore and buy a different primer. I love my Smashbox though.
