i first bought this as a replacement for skin rever upper and originally didnt get it. It ddnt seem to do anything for my skin. I then bought more rever upper and used them in conjunction. I never noticed anything special until recently when i tried some new products and had very bad acne breakouts for which even prescription meds arent helping it. i was in a big battle over the meds drying out my skin, then trying to overmoustrueize and ending up with super oily spots. I decided to come back to my tried and true. I began coupling the rever upper with prime time and found a magic formula! the rever upper's salycidic acid helps control pimples and the prime time helps smooth flakiness and allows my makeup to stay on longer!! i used to use about three blotting sheets per day at work, but since starting this duo, i barely need one!! So happy i tried prime time again!!

You cant expect a cream to be a miracle jsut cuz u heard some claims. It wont work if you dont use it correctly according to your skins needs! I have been true to this priduct for probably five years now, and any time i tried something esle, i always ended up back with the rever upper. I recently started breaking out in bad acne that is not getting better even with prescription meds. My chin broke out in terriblew, bumpy, bright red acne, then began flaking and drying terribly due to prescription washed and gels. I used a thick mousturizer to help the dryness, but that made my t zone soo shiny an hour after applyign makeup. I have started a new regimine of washing then applying rever-upper to treat ance (without overdrying or being to harsh) then prome time on top to smooth lines and address flakiness. So far, its working well. My skin is alotttt less flaky. And if you notice the website, although rever upper does have salycidic acid, it is not sold as a acne lotion, its a lotion to prep for face for better makeup application. Helping acne is just and added benefit. And i have extremely sensitive skin and this doesnt bother it at all. Matter of fact, when i tried using a thicker mousturizer to address flakiness- one that specifically was for ppl with acne prone sensitive skin or rosacea and was made with oatmeal, even that stung my skin!! and rever upper doesnt at all!! give it a chance!

Ive only been using this product for a few days now, but i already am noticing results with regrad to oil production in my t zone. My skin is sensitive, combination skin and lately my t zone has been producign excessive oil, especially my nose which is totally shiny three hours after i put my make up on. I use this in conjunction with fresh farmacy and breath of fresh air toner, and am loving it. It is not too drying, as i still produce a bit of oil (it wouldnt be natural or healthy for a product to completely stop oil production ladies, but today i did not need the emergency face blotting papers by 10am. And im not sure which product is resposible for clearing up a bad red, rough acne patch i had on my chin. So pleased so far. And the scent- to dieee for!!!! its so light and a little nutty and sweet, definitely fruity. I can smell it on my face on occasion and am so pleased! wish they could bottle it as a perfume!

I wanted to try the product before investing such a huge sum of money in it. The Lush associate gave me a tinyyyy sample that lasted maybe a week. I dont know if i ddnt give it enough time to see its magic, but for the week i used it i noticed no change in skin tone, oiliness, or clearing up blemishes. My skin was very oily through the day. I do love the scent though, a light orangey scent, great for spring. I have begun using enzymion which has really helped with my oily skin and is easy on sensitive skin as well.

Ive only tried the corrector a few times, but each time ive been happy with its staying power and strength. I have very thin, fair skin, so i only have to dab a little on and blend carefully, and it seems to really help conceal my dark purpl/blue unlike other correctors and concealers can. Dont notice it settling into any fne lines, and seems to stay put for a long time! I have used it with out any extra concelaer over it, because it seems like the corrector alone is enough! Hoping my excitement for this product lasts!!

I was between this and the erase paste and i decided to try both. I reviewed erase paste and didnt love it. Though i feell ike this gave better coverage to my dark circles, it wasnt as brightening as erase paste. It also came in easier packaging. WHile erase paste was creamy and globby, boing was thinner and more creamy going on. I did feel like there was some yellow undertones that didnt work out so well on my fair skin. Didnt seem to last through the day either.. and i noticed it cake into my fine lines. not impressed, but i dont hate it

There are things i like and dislike about this product, but i think the dislikes are more than the likes.. Like: It does have a brightening effct on my eyes It clears up some darkness The pot is cute looking Dislike: At 25, im starting to get fine lines; erase paste appears to settle into those lines Despite the cute pot, its unsanitary and sux when it gets to the botton om the pot; u get it all over ur fingers Too thick Doesnt fully conceal dark circles

It seems every winter, i begin to get a bad breakout of ingrown pimples, boils, and tiny bumpy acne on my chin. Its always painful, lasts forever, and causes such distress that sometimes i dont wan tto leave the house. Swear, i went to Sephora on seven separate occasions JUST to look for a new product to help my skin. I tried so many different products, then spoke to my friend, who works for lush. I explained my skin (sensitive, oily t zone) and she got me a few samples of this. I am the type taht is not quick to call a product a miracle worker, but i think this product has changed me. Ima a believer. After just a week, my skin was breaking out less and less shiny during the day. Also, i started to notive less and less new acne coming out. I have been using it for about a month now, still the sample my friend gave me- it lasts forever! and i barely get any new spots and most of the old red patches previosu acne left have been dramatically reduced. I only use this product at night becasue it may be too drying for twice a day, but i swear i think this has solved my skin problems!

I am on a constant battle to get rid of the dark puffy undereye circles i have; i tried this out hoping it would be my answer. I kept it in the fridge to make sure the ball wuold be nice and cool and further help to depuff my eyes. Well, the roller ball went on smoothly and delivered an instant chill to under my eye area, but did not help with anything else. I still looked tired and like i had obviously been out all night before. You're better off popping an ice cube on your eye in the morning; its a cheaper alternative for the same results.

I got through high school with this concelear. I also got a lot more sleep in high school than i do now as an adult. The consistency is a bit too liquidy or watery for me, and doesnt stand a chance at my dark undereye circles now. Similarly to what another reviewr said, the blue cap always broke, leaving me always wondering, did i screw it on too tight? excuse me for not wanting air to get into my concealer and dry it out..fine product when your younger, but i had to graduate onto somthing with better coverage
