i just bought this yesterday...i used it last night when i went out...when i got home really late..my face wasn't greasy at all(which it always is after about half an hour)...and my makeup was still lookin great!

my friends who arent that into makeup were totally appauled by the idea of me putting monistat stuff on my face lol..but i just laughed..cuz they are the ones losin out!

 
I like the idea. First of all, women are getting so smart about cosmetics and secondly, if a item is sold as a cosmetic, the price goes up without reason. Why not try it? Makeup artists always have grab bags of what may be considered by some as unusual items. And this one has to be gentle on some level!

 
I just bought a tube today (went to the grocery with Dear Hubby) but I'm still too scared to use it. Must muster courage! Thing is, I've never used primer before, so.. that factors in too.

Also, I'll probably need to put it on in the morning and see if it makes any difference throughout the day, rather than putting it on after lunch, and then having to take it off soon after.

 
so do you guys think this will be ok for oily acne prone skin?

does anyone think it controls oil really well?

did anyone break out at all?

 
I have oily skin with the usual monthly breakouts and this stuff keeps my face matte the whole day. I have stopped carrying my makeup in my bag since I started using it as I do not need to touch up any more. I have never had any breakouts (caused by this Monistat primer) after more than a year of using this almost every day. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I think this stuff is great, took me a minute to get over the "monistat" thing, but once I did it was a pleasant surprise. Keep my EDM smooth all day, reduces the oilies around my nose, and I love it as an eyeshadow primer. If anyone is on the fence just give it a try!

 
ok im convinced.

im going to target today to buy it!

i'll see if it can handle by 11 hour work day tomorrow! :10:

 
I have never seen this stuff in my drugstore! I want to go now and check lol I love primers but the price tag does suck!

 
ok so where do you buy this miracle cream?

i heard not all drugstores sell it?

has anyone got it at walmart, target, walgreens, or cvs?

thats whats around me

 
i just went and bought it at cvs.

they had a generic cvs brand copy with the same exact ingredients but i decided to stick with the original, it was only 2 dollars difference.

im excited to see how it works!

 
I just bought this today and I haven't used it under make up yet but it seems to feel the same on my skin as other primers! For all the Canadian ladies having trouble finding it, I bought it at Walmart in the section with pregnancy tests, lube etc.

 
ok so yesterday was the first day i tried it.

and let me tell you, its AMAZING!

better than any primer i have tried (smashbox, lorac, ect.)

i had a 11 hour work day and i wasnt shiny at all! usually after 3-4 hours i have to blot or apply some powder, but this time i didnt have to!

my foundation also goes on more smooth and even. with both my liquid and my minerals.

yay monistat! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
hmm.. heard alot about this as a primer. just placed an order from drugstore.com. now waiting to get it and give it a try. never seen this sold here in singapore though. Antichaffing treatments sounds right for me.. I've been looking for something like this for a long while :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Trust me, you won't be disappointed! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

By the way, are you using Access USA to forward your merchandise? I've always been tempted to sign up but I'm not sure whether it's better to be on the annual or monthly plan and also I'm not sure if I'll shop that much to make the service worthwhile. How do you rate their service? :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

PS: Sorry for hijacking this thread.
