I want to try the Smashbox Photo Finish Light. I have very sensitive and oily skin. It's a lot of money so that's why I want reviews before I buy it. I currently use L'Oreal True Match foundation which is water based. It says that this primer is 60% water based. What are your thoughts?

I used it for awhile & have sensitive combination skin. I liked it but one thing I did notice is you don't need a lot and if you use too much or apply it with your fingers or apply more where you've already applied it starts to flake off sometimes even with your foundation, its a bit strange. I would personally suggest the tarte cleanslate poreless primer. its a lot better for sensitive skin and a lot easier to apply. I adore that stuff.

I use it and I love it. I have oily skin and my foundation still looked flawless at the end of the day. I agree that you only need a very small amount but it is still easy to apply just by using your fingers.
