As promised
This primer really does live up to the claims. Each time I use this primer, the few areas of redness are completely gone. Foundation and all makeup products wear very nicely on top. I would compare the consistency to a moisturizer. It's not heavy. Non drying. Will definitely purchase the full size.

Hate the new formula
I’ve used this redness correction primer for years and it was always my favorite primer. The new formula is terrible. The consistency is sticky. It does not cover well and does not provide a smooth base for foundation. I’ll be looking for a new brand. Very disappointed.

Worst primer ever!
Smashbox used to have a great anti redness primer. However, this reformulation is awful and useless! It is so thin, and it does not cover the red! Plus, it wipes off when makeup is applied over it! Don't waste your money!

Decent Product
It's not a miracle product, but I do notice a decrease in facial redness on my cheeks and chin when using this. Some of the other recent reviews mentioned it was oily, which I didn't get at all. It leaves my skin feeling very silky and only slightly matte. I've been using it on no-makeup days so I can't say how it will layer with makeup.

Just okay
I have used this product a few days and it kind of comes off right away when using a beauty blender so next I just used my fingers and it was better. But I didn't really notice a huge difference.
Disappointed

Hate the new formulation
I was so disappointed in this new formulation. I received it in the mail and assumed it was just new packaging, but it doesn't go on as smoothly as the original. The original was cream to powder. This has the texture of sunscreen and has to be rubbed in. I hate it. It definitely doesn't make foundation go on smoother. I'll be trying to find another brand's dupe of the original from now on.
