The Formulation
A silky-textured, oil-free, pale pink paste which, upon application, forms an invisible veil over the skin. It is suitable for all skin types and can be used alone or under foundation. The very light texture ensures that skin is not overloaded and is able to breathe. Your skin is left 'foundation ready'.
The Packaging
A small, red glass pot with a plastic screw-top lid. It comes complete with a spatula so you can decant the product hygienically, much better than having to stick your fingers in the pot. The best thing is, there's zero waste. The wide neck means every last remnant can be scraped from the jar. (Note: Due to the consistency of this formulation, a pump dispenser or tube was not a practical packaging option.)

How It Works
When applied to the face, Acacia Micro-Pearls expand in response to the natural moisture levels in the skin and plump out imperfections, resulting in a visibly smoothed complexion. Soft-focus pigments give the skin a subtle glow, and Vitamin E and plant extracts offer anti-aging protection. The primer can be used all over the face, but you can also just apply it to the areas that you need it, you’ll find you won’t be ‘wasting’ as much product then and you’ll get more for your money in that sense.
Pros
Instantly calms skin, hydrating, anti ageing, suits every skin tone and skin type, lasts all day

Cons
Expensive product, heavy jar, not particularly hygienic if you don’t use the spatula it comes with
