I
recently purchased 3 high end primers and 3 less
expensive drug store/pharmacy primers. Please see price list of each
product and the links to buy them below. I've rated the primers below No 1 being my favourite and No.6 being my least favourite.

1.The Pore professional was a definate stand out, it goes on the skin feeling light and silky and helped my make-up stay on all day. It also disguised the pores on my nose amazingly. I will definetly be purchasing this again.

| No.2 |
2.Revlon's Photoready primer does exactly what it says on the tin, it
gives you a lovely even complexion, your skin looks amazing in
photographs, it primes beautifully and makes your make up last that bit
longer.

| No.3 |
3.Mac's Prep and Prime gives a soft silky feel, my skin felt amazing under my foundation. It really helped my make-up stay on even in really hot temperatures. Although I would really only recommed this primer if like me you have oily skin tone.

| No.4 |
4. Rimmels
Fix and Perfect primer has a lovely texture it blends in well and
evens out your skin tone and at that price I think it's a steal!!

5.The second Benefit Primer I reviewed was the That Gal primer it's advertised as "the silky pink primer that takes your skin from dull to darling". Well unfortunately I don't think it brightens your complexion at all infact I didnt see any difference in my complexion, also it didnt even make my foundation last very long. I think its over priced and it only lasted me 3 weeks. The bottle itself looks bigger compared to the amount of product you get in it.

6. My least favourite out of all 6 primers was L'oreal's Studio Secrets, I was very disapointed in this product as I am a huge L'oreal fan. I was so excited to try this but it failed to impress. The texture was horrible it was quite thick and gloopy. It made my make-up go all patchy as the day went on and my foundation slid off my face in only a couple of hours.
