Review: Makeup-Free Magic: My Secret to Smooth, Shine-Free, Confident Skin! - I don’t wear makeup, but you’d never know it thanks to the Rimmel London Stay Matte Primer.

The ultra-lightweight formula is exactly what my skin needed. It goes on smooth, never greasy or heavy, and immediately gives my skin a soft, matte finish that lasts all day. Even without foundation or powder, this primer leaves my face looking fresh, even, and shine-free and it somehow still feels like I’m wearing nothing at all. What I love most is how it makes my skin look youthful and healthy. It blurs imperfections, reduces the appearance of pores, and gives me the confidence of a polished look without layering on makeup. It’s also a great base if you do wear makeup because it grips product beautifully and extends wear time. This is one of those simple, no-fuss products that quietly transforms your skin and routine. If you’re looking for a way to look refreshed, smooth, and shine-free with or without makeup, this is the one to try. A true staple that earns its place in my bag every single day! Review: The best primer out of any I have tried! - I love that this product keeps my makeup on all day without having to reapply. I use Maybelline fit me foundation and concealer. I have tried other primers such as One/Size secure the sweat primer and it just sheds or pills off, it doesn't want to stay. Plus it doesn't keep my face oil free or sweat free. But the Rimmel london primer really works wonders with the Maybelline foundation and concealer. Also I have used some other higher priced silicone primers and they only help with my pores but not keeping my face oil free. But the Rimmel london primer works!! The only thing I would say about this primer is around the corners of my nose I still struggle with keeping my skin oil free around that area and my chin sometimes. It gets shiny. But even if my face does get shiny throughout the day it is nowhere near as bad as it used to be with other primers. Thank God I found this primer. I will continue to buy it. This primer truly makes a difference when it comes to keeping my skin mostly shine free and oil free. I love this stuff. ## Features - Skin perfecting - Ultra-lightweight formula - Controls shine for up to 8 hours - Never feels greasy or heavy - Helps makeup stay all day ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00I9X3UKM | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,926 in Beauty & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Beauty & Personal Care ) #21 in Foundation Primers | | Brand | Rimmel | | Brand Name | Rimmel | | Container Type | Bottle | | Country as Labeled | Great Britain | | Country/Region Of Origin | Great Britain | | Coverage | Lightweight Formula | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 20,006 Reviews | | Finish Types | Matte | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03607342682757 | | Item Dimensions | 1.18 x 1.81 x 4.29 inches | | Item Form | Cream | | Item Volume | 30 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 0.09 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Coty Beauty | | Manufacturer Part Number | 34788826003 | | Model Number | 34788826003 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Package Information | Bottle | | Product Benefits | Smoothening | | Skin Tone | All | | Skin Type | All | | Specialty | Ultra | | Unit Count | 1 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Rimmel - **Item Form:** Cream - **Package Information:** Bottle - **Product Benefits:** Smoothening - **Skin Type:** All ## Images ![Stay Matte Primer - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ub1YTWRvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this work for really dark skin? like a Hershey bar?lol I only get oily on my forhead.** A: Yes it will I'm Dark skin myself and I love this product. **Q: is this perfect for very greasy skin after a long day i look like a grease ball and melting** A: Yes, I absolutely love this primer!
