L’Oreal Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base – A Review

Back towards the end of October, the lovely Grey of LeGothique listed L’Oreal Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base as a Pick of the week. I loved her review of it so much it made me want to go out and buy it, so I did. Grey later pointed out that she feels it is exactly like NARS Skin Smoothing Face Prep. So for about 1/3 the price of NARS you get a great product.

Anyway, I liked the product so much that I decided to try wearing it the way Grey mentioned, with only a finishing powder. I’ve also tried tried it in various combinations with Meow’s Purrfect Puss foundation, Pampered Puss foundation, Aromaleigh’s Ultra Resolution Finishing powder, Revlon’s PhotoReady Translucent Finisher and Hard Candy’s Moon Glow powder.

Now, I’ve tried a lot of primers in the past several years. My favorite primers have actually been indie, with Fyrinnae’s Velvet-Gel Silica Primer (which I feel I should point out, it has no silicones) and Camellia Rose V2.0 Skin Smoothing Primer.

L’Oreal’s Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base says that it gives a perfect skin texture, smoothes lines, hides pores and banishes imperfections. It also claims it’s suitable for all skin types and non-comedogenic.

First off, I’ve found the best way for me to apply it is to stick my (clean) thumb into the jar and get out a tiny bit of product and then smooth that over my cheek into the thinnest layer possible. I repeat this for my other cheek, then chin, nose and forehead, smoothing it down my jawline. You want the thinnest layer possible. When I got too much, things looked streaky on my face and powder clumped. It looked icky.

Secondly, I hate the fact that the product comes in a jar. While you only need a tiny, tiny amount of product to get good results, I HATE sticking my fingers in a jar. I know I am not alone in my hatred of jars, which has expanded to me hating all products in jars.

You can see I’ve been using this every day for over a month and I have maybe 1/3 to 1/2 a jar left, since I’ve just hit pan, so to speak, in the center. The color of the primer is a very pale baby beige pink and the texture to me is sort of spongy, like a mousse maybe.

The ingredients are:
cyclohexasiloxane, dimethicone, dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer, silica, acrylates copolymer, disodium stearoyl glutamate, aluminum hydroxide < /- may contain CI 77891/ titanium dioxide/ CI 77491/ iron oxides>FIL D30587/2

This product is Vegan!

Packaging:
I HATE the packaging. I hate jars. I hate sticking my fingers into things because I inevitably end up with stuff under my nails. However, the small size is ideal for travel.

Price:
Normally $10.99, I believe I got it for $10 from Walmart for .5 oz of product.

Here you can see the various ways I’ve tried the primer.

This is the primer with Revlon’s PhotoReady Translucent Finisher.

This is the primer with Meow’s Pampered Puss foundation in Inquisitive Siamese.

This is the primer with Meow’s Purrfect Puss foundation in Inquisitive Siamese. This is the sheerest foundation from Meow.

This is the primer with Aromaleigh’s Ultra Resolution Finishing powder.

This is the primer with Hard Candy’s Moon Glow powder.

Would I purchase again?
Yes! I like the way it makes my skin feel. I feel like it lives up to its claims. I feel like it’s an excellent primer. I like that it’s vegan. However, I HATE the packaging. I completely and utterly hate the packaging, so I’ll be writing a letter to L’Oreal to tell them how I feel about the packaging. Perhaps if enough people complain about jar packages companies will stop using them so much.
