Review on ๐Ÿฅ NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Marshmallow Smoothing Primer: Vegan Face Primer with 10-In-1 Skin Benefits for Flawless Makeup by Brittany Jones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great but is a bit sticky even after the primer

I really like this primer. It does a great job of blurring and filling the pores. Some might not like the slightly sweet vanilla flavor (obviously they wanted marshmallows). I personally like this part a lot. The smell is quite mild, but if you are very sensitive to fragrances, you can do without it. The only negative I have is that it's really quite sticky. I expect this from a primer BEFORE you apply the primer, but it was still pretty tacky afterward (and I applied this primer without primer, so I know it's not inherently tacky). I set it with setting powder, but to be honest I don't like setting it with powder because it inevitably worsens my lines. That's why I use a primer at the beginning. So it seems a bit counterproductive. However, I'm pretty picky about the textures of things. Even the slightest bit of oiliness or stickiness drives me crazy. Many people don't like the slight stickiness. This is a really good product that does what it promises. I also have sensitive skin and this didn't cause any rash or burning. So I think it deserves 4 stars. I would give 4 1/2 if possible.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Clarity
