First off, I am not one to fall for any time of cosmetic base or primer. I believe it is a marketing scheme designed to get you to buy MORE stuff you don’t need, which doesn’t do anything for the skin or the makeup you put over it.
Now that I’ve said that, I have to say I absolutely LOVE Smashbox Photo Finish Primer. I didn’t set out to buy it. Recently, Smashbox had this Let’s Do Lunch Tuesday and Thursday special on their website. Buy one item, get free shipping and a free gift. I wanted their free gift but I didn’t really need anything. I clicked on their best sellers and looked around. I did my research and googled to see what Smashbox’s must haves were. The primer came up several times so I closed my eyes and purchased it. I figured girls out there must know something I didn’t, so why not give it a try.
When I received it, I put it on and loved it instantly. I even liked the feel of it on my skin. I have dry skin so any feeling of moisture is good.
While browsing the net today, I found this interesting article by Connie De Alwis. She did a very lovely comparison between Smashbox Photo Finish Primer and Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel. Yes, you read it correctly. To summarize, she basically said not only does Monistat Chafing Gel do what Smashbox Photo Finish Primer does, it does it BETTER. That’s crazy! I didn’t pay twice the amount for something that is going to be beat by a more affordable brand.
Yes, yes, I will try out this Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel soon. I am always open to saving money. By the way, Ms. De Alwis is not alone. Google Monistat Chafing Relief Powder-Gel and you will find plenty of informative sites regarding this secret to more flawless and smoother looking skin.
