This primer reduces redness instantly and evens out my skin tone. It provides light coverage and helps my makeup last for hours without feeling heavy. Highly recommended.

As someone prone to sunburns, finding a product that effectively combats redness while prepping my skin for makeup has been a game-changer. The Neutrogena Prep + Correct Primer for Redness has become an essential part of my summer skincare and makeup routine. First and foremost, let’s talk about its redness-correcting abilities. After a day out in the sun, my skin often looks irritated and red, but a thin layer of this primer works wonders in neutralizing the redness, providing a more even-toned canvas for my makeup application. Its lightweight formula doesn’t feel heavy on the skin, which is a big plus, especially during hot summer days. What sets this primer apart is its hydrating properties. Sun-exposed skin tends to feel parched and tight, but the Neutrogena primer is infused with hydrating ingredients that help replenish moisture, leaving my skin feeling refreshed and supple. I also appreciate its smooth texture, which creates a silky base for foundation and ensures that my makeup goes on evenly and stays put throughout the day. It doesn’t pill or clump, even when layered with other products, which is crucial for achieving a seamless makeup look. Another standout feature is its oil-free and non-comedogenic formula, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. It doesn’t clog pores or exacerbate breakouts, which is essential, especially during the summer months when skin tends to be more prone to congestion. In terms of longevity, I’ve found that my makeup lasts much longer when paired with this primer. Even on hot and humid days, it helps control excess oil and shine, keeping my makeup looking fresh and matte for hours on end.

This primer felt very comfortable on my skin. Instead of just reducing redness, it made my whole face look pale, so I’d recommend using it on targeted red spots rather than all over. On the plus side, my makeup lasted all day and stayed in place, which is a big win. Overall, a solid primer if you use it strategically.

I wear a surgical mask at work and have rosacea on my cheeks. This works great over my face serum and under my BB Creme foundation to neutralize the redness. It's not heavy and doesn't cause breakouts.

The plus this goes on very smoothly and provides a nice smooth ski surface .. My foundation goes on very nicely as well as my other makeup products. However, I do see that this does not keep my makeup in place as long as some other products. I might try it with some other foundations to see if that is the problem, but I will stick with my golden standard for now for important events when I need my makeup to stay on longer.

This is the best drugstore color correcting primer I've found. Whether under serum, balm, liquid, or powder foundation, as long as you give it a minute to set, it evens out redness very well. A lot of times I will just layer it over my moisturizeer and them use a loose powder and don't even need foundation. It lasts all day, doesn't get ashy or melty, and maintains the even skintone. Highly recommended.

I have mild rosacea on my nose and cheeks that gets exacerbated by the winter cold. I’ve tried a few other green concealers before finding this one but was never very impressed. They were too thick or too green. This one has a nice consistency which feels more like a foundation than a concealer. It makes blending easy and really looks natural. Yet, it gives me enough tint to hide the redness. It is nice to be able to be on video calls for work and not look like I have sunburn. Very grateful to have this product!

This adds brightness to your complexion and makes your skin have a healthier shine. I like the overall look of my skin after using this. This is an everyday product for me. I recommend using this daily with or without makeup. I hope you find this useful I’m 59 years old.
