NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Hydra Touch Oil Primer, Vegan Face Primer

I really experience dryer skin in the winter. And I also have some foundations in my collection that are on the dryer or more matte side. I wanted something to put under them, more than just my moisturizer, to make my makeup look smoother, fresher and prettier. I'm really pleasantly surprised at how much I like this. It goes on so smoothly, sinks right in and doesn't feel greasy. I don't feel that it's a typical primer, I don't know if it really fits that category. But it does prep my skin nicely. I don't reach for it on the days that I use any of my more moisturizing foundations. It's too much then. Another thing I do use it for is as a mixer for certain foundations. It adds moisture and a nice glow, making some foundations that I typically find not so usable, very nice on my skin. The packaging is different, and a bit hard to get used to, but it does work well once you get used to it. But I would never trust this enough to travel with it. I think it's too risky, with the way the packaging is designed, that it might leak.

I'm 32 years old and I have VERY dry, sensitive skin. I previously purchased the NYX hydrating primer (blue tube) with hyaluronic acid, it's sort of similar to the Neutrogena Hydrogel moisturizer, and loved it but decided to try something a little "stronger" for winter. This is perfect! A little bit goes a long way, so start with just like a drop per cheek and forehead and pat into skin from there. You can always add more as needed. It's also great to touch up during the day on top of makeup, just pat on to areas that get dry. Avoid the eye area since you shouldn't use an oil around your eyes anyway and esp not if wearing any eye makeup. This bottle will last you forever! I will say the packaging needs improvement as the dropper can leak, and your supposed to twist it shut but it can be tricky. It's not a deal breaker at all but hopefully they will change that soon. If you have very some moisture issues but also some oily spots (t zone etc) I recommend just using this on the areas that get dry. If you have oily skin but still need hydration I recommend trying the NYX hydrating primer in the blue tube. This is an oil, after all, so don't be surprised when it's oily. It's not greasy, unless maybe load it on, just be very light handed and pat onto skin. It's really a face saver!

Ok so I have oily skin, but I used to say the crap out of my skin to combat the oiliness. Needless to say it was making my oil glands kick into overdrive, hence making me an even oilier mess. This oil is fantastic for those dry patches I get sometimes. And to make a long story short I use adapaline gel &it can give me dry patches, & my skin peels. It has helped my skin tremendously and so has this oil! It's also amazing for dry under eyes , I take 1 drop and pat it gently under my eyes prior to makeup. Make sure u let it dry for 2-5 minutes. This makes a world of difference. If u go right into your makeup routine, the oil just sits on top cause u didn't give it the time to absorb. So be patient & don't rush. Or else you will be an oily, runny mess. Also great to pat on as the last step.to skincare at night. Again let it absorb before hitting the sheets. If this oily girl loves it- I think all skin types will too!! Do your research on the ingredients, I find this is helpful with trying out any new products.

I was experiencing really dry patches of skin that would flake around my lips, sides of nose, and on my cheekbones. I use a dewy foundation and powder for my makeup, and in these winter months you could see the dry cracks in my skin through my makeup. This product has made those dry flaky spots totally disappear while it is on my face. I am super impressed, and wish I had looked into a primer like this sooner. More pros: I have sensitive skin, and this product has not made me break out (been using 2 weeks) so that is a major plus! Also another unexpected bonus-my makeup comes off SO MUCH BETTER at the end of the day, and it lasts much longer. I take my makeup wipe and it is covered when I’m done removing before bed. Previously with no primer I wasn’t getting much off at all (even if makeup was applied at night. This also proves that the primer helps keep the makeup on because it’s obviously lasting on my face all day when applied in the morning. Overall, I’m SUPER happy with this product and will buy again. I’m not sure what will happen in the summer time when my skin becomes more oily, but for right now in the winter, it’s doing the trick.

This is a decent product for what you pay, I wish it was a bit larger and I wish you got more in the dropper when you sucked it up. I can't get very much out. I use it daily and it moisturizes my skin however thats about it....it doesn't make pores look even like a primer would, it doesn't keep makeup on, if anything I have noticed my makeup slides with it on. If I mix it with my foundation it's fine or with a different primer, it seems to hold better.

I got this a few months ago and I have not stopped using it since. I love the packaging and the way the dispenser works. It gives me a beautiful airbrushed dewy finish. I have normal/combo skin and this product does not make it feel greasy or has every broken me out. I usually dispense two or three drops on my fingers rub my fingers together and then put it on my face. I have used it with NYX products as well as with other foundations and it works great! It also smells amazing without being overwhelming. I honestly don’t know how I used silicone primers in the past! After using smashbox's oil primer, I now see the NYX primer does the same thing for a fraction of the price! The best DUPE!

I put a small drop on my four head a small drop on each cheek of my face and believe me it was plenty. My skin immediately sucked up the oil because it’s winter and it’s extremely dry. I actually like the smell of it it is a little bit on the strong side but me I like strong smells I don’t get headaches or feel nauseated like most people but this is a little bit on the strong smelling side. It definitely stayed on my face For a good 2 to 3 hours and I could still touch my face and I could still feel it on there. I’ve only had it two days so far so this is all the details I can give you. I think it’s definitely worth the money. And a Good Dr., Face loves a small oil treatment at least three times a week. But again awls you need is small tiny drops. Definitely purchasing Again🥰

This works great as a primer under your eyes and in your dry areas of your face, especially during the winter months. I've also found this is great as a transfer oil - meaning you can mix this with something like the vitamin c facial smoother from The Body Shop and it has improved the even tone to my skin and any dark marks. My skin is more even toned and any of my old acne marks have faded to the point that my skin looks clear.
