Buy This!!
5My makeup looked so flawless after applying this! It lasted so long and it gave me a healthy natural glow look which didn’t get greasy towards the end of the day. I have dry skin with combination in my t zone.

Not really
2I bought a couple of primers to try out before my wedding, and this wasn't that good. It feels like it should be really effective, because it goes on so nicely like an aloe gel, and then quickly transforms on your face into a really tacky base that was quite nice to apply makeup to. So far so good. The issue was that compared to other primers it didn't really keep product on my face. In my T-Zone I'm quite oily, and after a few hours I noticed patches where my foundation looked like it had just slid off. It doesn't normally do that, even when worn alone, and I wore it with setting spray. Nice base to apply make-up to, but the grip part of the product seemed mostly for show.

Makes your make up last
5I use this and it really works. My skin is oily and make up stays in place, despite the weather or activity. I love it. I use 1 - 2 pumps and leave it to dry. Make up doesn't seem to move and creases seem to be less. Skin does look healthy with it on.

Re-purchase? YES I’ll take another one!
5I bought this off the back of reading soo many great reviews. I love that the brand is so eco-friendly and sustainable and the hemp derived ingredients in this primer, sold it to me. I’ve tried it several times now and only need one pump really as that does the trick. It says to leave it for a minute to fully sink in, but I find it’s good to go after about 30-40 seconds. The finish isn’t as glassy as it looks on the models, but it leaves my skin feeling really smooth and definitely grips my make up. If you struggle with a lot of primers where it flakes or feels too sticky or too greasy (like myself), then this is definitely worth trying!

Great!
4I was hesitant to try this as there are so many mixed reviews but I did eventually and I wasn't disappointed. I have combination skin, my under-eyes, cheeks and forehead can get quite dry but my nose, eyelids and chin can get kind of oily. First of all, you can really feel that grip effect when you use this, I apply 1 pump all over my face and let it dry down for about 1 minute. It's really lightweight and has a sort of cooling effect. I found my foundation visibly sits on my face better when I use this primer, it makes application so much easier, and I find I also use less, which is good. I've tested it with a few products including my everyday foundation which is basically a tinted moisturizer all the way up to my Huda Beauty Faux Filter and they've all worked really well with this primer. I think not overloading this product is the key to this primer working. Seeing as it sticks down so well, adding more on top sort of makes it shift around and go clumpy. Also, this might not be the best for people with really dry skin as It can be quite drying on my dry patches of skin but that's balanced out with using a moisturizing foundation and I also use Pixi glow mist which is good for boosting hydration throughout the day. In all, this is a really unique formula and it works really well. I would definitely recommend!

Disappointing...
1I’ve never been one to spend a lot of money on a primer but when I read about this one, I was really excited to try it. I have very dry skin and makeup tends to cling to the dry patches on my face so thought that this primer could prevent this from happening while also making my makeup last much longer. Unfortunately, I’ve found that due to the sticky nature of this primer, it makes my makeup cling to dry patches even more than before and after a full day at work my makeup looks terrible! I will be on the lookout for a moisturising primer to replace this one.

Great for me!
4I’m not a big wearer of makeup, Usually I just wear concealer dotted on spots I want to hide, and some highlighter, as well as my eyebrows, and that’s it! I’m very lucky and my skin is very healthy and spot-free so I don’t wear foundation and just use concealer. My skin is dry and sensitive and this product works great; I look dewy and my skin feels moisturised all day, but once it did irritate my eye a little bit. I think I just applied it too close to my eye, so be wary of that! Over all great product!

My favourite go-to primer
5I love this primer! It goes tacky once on and as you apply your foundation over the top, you can feel that it has a grip. Holds your make up in place all day.

Beware if you have sensitive skin
2I went to a music festival in Malta last weekend and wanted to make sure my makeup stayed on all day while enjoying the music. Ideally, something that wouldn't budge for several hours of dancing. To put on the primer is sticky and really does grip the foundation, though I find it most effective when I applied by hand. Though the makeup didn't budge, my eyes were really irritated by the product, which lead to my mascara running down my face. I tried it again a second day and was again left with red, teary eyes and the skin beginning to crack in the crow's feet area. I will not be using it again myself but might be ok if your skin is less sensitive.

Twice tested - very poor each time!
1I was so excited about the release of Milk Makeup on Cult beauty and decided to go with Milks newest primer - how disappointed I was! It left my make up patchy, cakey and slipping off my face in patches throughout the day...I looked awful and never been so self conscious about my makeup before. Tried to give it the benefit of the doubt and pass it on to my friends to try out - maybe it was just me. But no the same happened to them! Such a shame considering the hype around this brand - money not well spent on this occasion
