Rimmel London Stay Matte - 003 - Primer, Ultra-Lightweight, Controls Shine, Doesn’t Feel Greasy, 1oz

I don’t wear makeup, but you’d never know it thanks to the Rimmel London Stay Matte Primer. This little tube has become an essential part of my daily morning routine, and I never leave home without it, whether I’m heading to work or packing for vacation. The ultra-lightweight formula is exactly what my skin needed. It goes on smooth, never greasy or heavy, and immediately gives my skin a soft, matte finish that lasts all day. Even without foundation or powder, this primer leaves my face looking fresh, even, and shine-free and it somehow still feels like I’m wearing nothing at all. What I love most is how it makes my skin look youthful and healthy. It blurs imperfections, reduces the appearance of pores, and gives me the confidence of a polished look without layering on makeup. It’s also a great base if you do wear makeup because it grips product beautifully and extends wear time. This is one of those simple, no-fuss products that quietly transforms your skin and routine. If you’re looking for a way to look refreshed, smooth, and shine-free with or without makeup, this is the one to try. A true staple that earns its place in my bag every single day!

This stuff really works well! No shiney face all night! Is not thick or cakey. I don't wear a lot of make up, so I put this on, either alone or with a little powder and that's it. It is really awesome! Best primer I've tried! Lasts all night! Can't feel it, doesn't look like I'm wearing anything, but tones down any red and prevents shine! Love it!

This primer worked well for me. I put it in my tee zone which can get a bit oily some times. It keeps it matte and makes my pores less visible. The price is good too which is very important for me. I used it both in summer and winter!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Love This Primer! I’ve tried a lot of primers over the years, but this one is a total standout! It goes on super smoothly, feels lightweight, and doesn’t clog my pores at all — which is a huge plus for my sensitive skin. My makeup stays flawless all day without getting patchy or greasy, even after hours of wear. The best part? It performs just as well (if not better!) than high-end primers, but at a fraction of the price. It blurs imperfections, helps foundation glide on beautifully, and keeps everything in place from morning to night. If you’re looking for a long-lasting, affordable primer that won’t cause breakouts, this one is a must-have in your makeup bag! 💖

I have over-oily skin and at my wits end trying every conceivable foundation and primer to to keep my oily skin in check during the work day. I also would want a primer to minimize pores and soften flaws and give matte but healthful finish. If you seek something truly mattifying, this is it. It does and excellent job mattifying and holds back shine all day. Except my makeup wears off, and it gives a chalky white effect to my general coloring. This is with makeup over it. It did minimize pores, but did not have a smoothing effect over the general surface of my skin, nor a blurring effect over other imperfections. It is a cream, not the silicon gel-type of primer. The cream dries, and once makeup applied, you are left with an unflattering, pale effect. I gave 3 stars for price and packaging, and that it did keep it's word that it indeed mattifies.

This is my favorite primer and finishing spray. Protects skin and locks in makeup so it doesn't rub off on clothes. Prevents oil for a time and can be reapplied.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have been experimenting with different primers and Rimmel London Stay Matte - 003 - Primer is my new go-to primer. Initially the thickness and texture is a little off-putting. First, I dab this over my trouble spots such as, cheek rosacea and larger pore areas and also around my crows feet, and then to the rest of my face. When I smooth it out over my face , the texture becomes a little more silky to apply. After it dry's, I go ahead and apply my foundation with a brush. The foundation goes on much smoother. I thought I was imagining this, but after quite a few hours of wearing it, my skin feels like it is being "tightened", especially in the 'crows feet' area near my eyes. This sensation is very similar to using a "5-minite wrinkle eraser" product. If I use the primer alone, I get the same sensation, so, it's not from my foundation, etc. Again, this seems to happen after about 6 hours after application. I like the way it feels like it is tightening up the wrinkles. Since I only use a small amount, it's a good value for the price. I am very happy with primer and intend to continue to use it.

This is my wife’s review .I love this product and have used many other setting sprays and this one is one of my favorite. I have textured skin and this one helps with setting the forehead and around nose. A small amount around eyes sets everything nicely. My chin is a problem and everything seems to just fall off it no matter what is done. This setting spray helps that issue and so very well. It is dependable and works each time with sunscreen as well It does not dry out mature skin. I am so pleased and it is a mainstay.Affordability makes it perfect💗it does have a slight smell of cucumber but dissipates quickly.I do not like fragrance but this is rather nice. I have very sensitive skin and do not have issues around my eyes. My package arrived safety sealed and bubble wrapped so very nicely which is an added very nice thing. That in itself is greatly appreciated and deserves all stars. Thank you for a great product. It is not flat or dry looking and works so well for my dry, mature, and textured skin. It gives a nice finish with glow but camouflages texture. Sometimes a touch up may be required but it is great in that situation depending on my skin care, foundation - oily , dry combo type and if my skincare used is different and as well as factors such as makeup application type - brush, sponge or fingers are used etc . This is one of all time necessaries I do not want to do without truly.

Habe die Creme entdeckt, als ich in England war. Meine Haut fettet teilweise sehr stark, aber mit dieser Creme passiert das nicht mehr. Sehr empfehlenswert für Mischhaut.
