Best Primer Ever
PostedNovember 21, 2018
This is the ONLY lip primer that works and I've tried many. Don't waste your money on anything else - buy multiples so you never run out! A thin layer goes a long way and it's moisturizing.

Perfect Base for lips
PostedNovember 10, 2018
I'm so glad I purchased the prep+prime. It creates the perfect base for my lip liner and lipstick without having any feathering. I have dry lips and some wrinkles that look perfect everyday! I use this as a lip balm too. Love it

Such a shame
PostedAugust 19, 2018
Loved this product but after the 3rd use I went to use it and it had snapped off. I was also extra careful with it as I read this had happened to others, so all in all a complete waste of money.

Hi T, we are so sorry to learn that your Prep and Prime Lip has snapped after such a short period of time. These can be a little more delicate so you are right to not put too much pressure on it but we certainly wouldn't expect them to snap like this after normal use. We never want you to feel you have wasted your money, especially when we know how great this product should be, and would like to invite you to talk with our Consumer Care team on 0800 074 6905 who would be happy to help further.

Really does extend the life of lipstick
PostedAugust 10, 2018
I first bought this a couple of years ago when it was recommended by one of the MAC artists. I wasn't overly impressed but kept buying it - like some of the other reviewers, I think it is a great moisturiser. A week or so ago, I decided to give it another try as a primer, so put it on about 15 minutes before I put my lipstick on. I usually use a pencil to line my lips and the pale lip pencil (I think it's called nude) over my lips to give the lipstick a bit of 'grip.' After about 15 minutes, I applied my lipstick as usual and it lasted all the way through to lunch, even with drinking several cups of tea. I've used it this way several times now and it really does make a difference, and not just to Mac lipsticks. I am totally sold.
