Reviews

Superb Primer

"I decided to try this primer and I am so glad that I did! My skin glows beautifully and it works perfectly under my foundation. You need to give this a try~"

— Kimberly A. (5/5)

Really enjoy!

"I do really like this product! I feel like it makes my eyeshadow and concealer go on so much smoother! The first time I tried it, I did have some stinging but my skin is very sensitive. Since then I’ve worn it and it hasn’t been as stingy/burny so I think my skin is getting used to it!"

— Claire C. (4/5)

Returning

"This was very thick and sticky. Most primers smooth over your skin so your foundation goes on nicely. Going to return this."

— Debbi R. (1/5)

Great primer!

"Love this primer - does exactly what it says 👍🏼"

— Danette T. (5/5)

Highly reactive rash to this product

"I do not have sensitive skin, have NEVER had a skin reaction to any product (here or otherwise) before, and do not mix skincare products. I had a horrible rash reaction to this primer-it burned and was painful, ultimately spreading and swelling. Took two hours to calm it fully. I have bought so many products from juice beauty, but this was really wild."

— H C. (1/5)

New formula not for me

"This used to be my favorite primer of all time. The formula changed and this one just doesn’t do anything for me. Please bring back the old formula…smoother on skin better luminosity, no unpleasant odor…new formula is drab not as luminous and has an odor that makes you think it went bad. Back on the hunt for primer. I won’t be purchasing this primer again - unfortunately. I’m a big fan of Juice Beauty but this product is just ok and I’m looking for awesome (which the old formula was!)"

— Felicia (2/5)

Beautiful finish

"Beautiful finish"

Illuminating Primer

"This primer is great. It's so light and airy and feels like there's nothing on your skin. . . . . . . . . . helps the foundation go on so smoothly. I'm loving it!"

— laura c. (5/5)

I like the reformulated product

"I like the reformulated product with the gold tone. Works well adding a subtle illumination to my face"

— Lynda K. (5/5)

Love

"I have mature skin and this makes my pores look so small. I wear it alone or under my foundation. It really makes my skin look more glowing."
