this is my second favorite primer. i usually use ultima primer but this is alot like it .. i has color too it but if you let it dry / put your foundation on it doesnt show. I always put foundation on .. I neVERR ever go outside without it  but this product made me feel comfortable without it. It does even out my skin ( im a nc 25 in mac foundation) and it hides my huge pores , you can barely see them with this ! i love it !
