I bought this for US$10/CAD$11 from Sephora’s clearance sale, a real steal because the retail price is expensive! I am using a couple of great primers (Laura Mercier and Smashbox) but at this price, I cannot pass up. And this didn’t disappoint!
This is an apricot tinted primer for wrinkles from Fusion Beauty, famous for their LipFusion. It doesn’t go on apricot-peach shade though, it somewhat blends right into my skin and evens it out quite a bit. The texture of this, compared to the purple one (for brightening), is much more moisturizing and less matte, which I welcome because my skin is dry and dehydrated. I use this alone, over my sunscreen, and also with cream blush and concealer over, and found this to hold the makeup perfectly without fading from the moment I applied at 7am to 11pm! I was also amazed how moisturizing this is without the slightest bit of grease, especially when I use it alone over my Origins A Perfect World SPF25. I went by the day without any shine, and my skin has a natural dewy finish.
I don’t know if I would pay its full prize (US$42) but at US$10 this is fantastic! I think the most I would be willing to pay for this is US$30.00.
As for any skincare properties, I didn’t notice any change in my fine lines on my forehead, but for day use/primer this is very good. The packaging is plastic, airtight pump system, though personally I would prefer glass bottle instead. All in all, at this sale price, this is my latest good find, though as a primer, nothing beats Smashbox!

hi Joseibi,
Do u think that anti aging products also work as brightening or lightening? I started L’Oreal youth code today (intensive serum and day cream SPF 15 only) and I feel that my skin has become bit dull? What do u think so? Could you pls write a review on that as well? It has been heavily marketed since last year !
As I told earlier, I had the same problems of dry and dehydrate skin and I am in same age group as you
