• Elizabeth Arden’s Good Morning Serum (not bad)
• Nars Primer (not so great)
• Clinique Primer (eek!)
• Revlon Vital Radiance (pretty good)
• Shiseido Brightening Veil (hated it!)
  
• LaPrarie Rose Illusion (primer perfection)
  
• Smashbox Photo Finish (the primer against which all others are compared – the uber primer!)

I have to say here that I am not nearly as enthused about Smashbox as she is. My uber primer was one from days gone by, from a French cosmetics company, Payot. It was indeed primer perfection for me, and I haven’t had any in years now, and cannot find it anymore (probably just a product re-working and I don’t know what it is called!). The Smashbox primer is chock full of silicone, and that just plain old feels weird on my face. I feel like it is clogging my pores like nobodys business. However, after reading all of these incredibly good reviews of primers, I am going to get out my Smashbox primer again, and give it a real test to see what I think. I haven’t heard one bad review of it yet, so I think I am just holding a grudge against that scary silicone. I also have another primer in my arsenal that I need to review, and will get after that too, maybe next week.
