Read the reviews and decided to give it a try. I have given up on moist lipstick and glosses, and have gone to matte. So, this review attests to using a matte finish only. Actually, it works quite well. Minimal feathering and my lipstick stays in place. Very Pleased.
I bought this product as a substitute for Trish McEvoy's excellent lip primer, which for some reason is discontinued. This one is not as good -it dilutes the vibrant color of my lip color, probably because it goes on white. The better alternative is Urban Decay Ozone lip primer, which does not interfere with my lip color and works just as well as the Trish product.
This has a creamier feel than both the Urban Decay and Sephora primers I’ve been using, which feel waxier. My lipstick application seems to last long enough with it. I’m waiting to see if it gets used up more quickly than the other two.
Love all of Mac products but some of the matte lipsticks dry out my lips. The prep and prime lip is great for keeping my lips moisturized and maintaining a long lasting smooth finish lipstick
