Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product I love the way that this product makes my skin feel. It moisturizes my skin, softens my face, and helps my makeup stay on. You can wear it with or without makeup. Would definitely buy again!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cheap and good quality At first, I didn't wait for few minutes and put on my foundation immediately, it is not good. After I read the instruction and wait for 2 minutes,..it's amazing! It makes my foundation fit my face well and hides my pores well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Primer I began using The Present many years ago. I loved the way it smoothed and prepared my skin before using makeup. My makeup went on smoothly and consistently. The Present gave my skin a poreless look and filled in some fine lines as well. At some point I had run out of the product and went to replenish my supply when I found out that none of the usual retailers were carrying it anymore. I was devastated, but resigned to trying other primers from other brands. I have tried numerous primers from high end cosmetics/skin care companies to drugstore products. None were as effective as The Present. In fact, other primers caused my makeup to "roll off my skin"...Yuck! I chose to look on the Philosophy site and found my beloved Primer discounted! I do hope that this discount doesn't mean that the product is permanently discontinued, because I never want to be without it again!
