Rimmel London Fix and Protect UV Shield Primer, 30 ml

It’s affordable and amazing 🤩 I love how it feels and glides on so silky Since I began using I have found my makeup sits much better, lasts longer and blends more easily I am not sure if it contains sun protection but I got caught on a day that looked overcast when it began at the seaside on holiday which turned into a scorcher… and had no sunblock in my handbag however whilst everywhere else on me is peeling now- my face hasn’t and has a lovely tan! I tend to use moisturiser, then the primer and a tinted moisturiser and really find I no longer need foundation when I use it under a tinted moisturiser, it just smooths everything perfectly and stops it slipping off or looking too greasy within a few hours but I have used it with full foundation and been amazed by the difference when I didn’t use this primer to using it. My cousin is a make up artist and introduced me to this one over much more expensive brands as this is her favourite too! My only gripe is I wish it was available in larger sizes although the convenience of carrying it in my handbag doesn’t disappoint me but since I use it everyday I wouldn’t mind a larger tube for at home as well as handbag sized - that said it does last me a month or two despite using everyday because you really don’t need that much with how it glides easily when you first apply it

This is by far the best primer I have used. I have tried: W7 Prime Magic Face Primer Camera Ready Rimmel Stay Matte Primer Revlon PhotoReady Perfecting Primer (around £12) and even the Benefit Porefessional Primer (which is over £20!) I actually prefer it to the Benefit primer! Primer is supposed to make your make-up go on smoothly, providing a dewy and even finish. It's also supposed to make your make-up last all day. This primer leaves my skin luxuriously soft without feeling greasy or heavy. I personally never have problems with my makeup going patchy and it does last a full 16 hour day for me (although I do use good makeup - i.e. Max Factor Face-finity All Day Flawless foundation and Estee Lauder double wear concealer). I am 21 years of age and have normal, healthy skin. How I use the product: I moisturise my face with Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti-ageing moisturiser and wait around 20 seconds before applying a pea-sized amount to my face. I sweep it over the areas that I am going to be applying make-up to (my nose, cheeks, chin and forehead) and wait about 20 seconds before applying my foundation with a foundation brush. This really seems to sink into my skin and provide added moisture, making my skin look dewy and fresh. On days where I have been rushing or daydreaming whilst doing my makeup I have applied my foundation and wondered why my foundation hasn't glided on seamlessly and looks somewhat dull. Then I have realised that I forgot to put this primer on! Primer really does make a difference to your make-up and this one is perfect. It is the right consistency (thick and creamy but not heavy) and has no unpleasant smell and doesn't clog my pores since I rarely ever have spots or blemishes. As previously mentioned, I actually prefer it to the expensive Benefit Porefessional primer which did not leave my skin dewy. I have used this product for years, its perfect for me and I very much doubt I will find a better one :)

It is a great primer. It hydrates and feels great on the skin. Only negative is the strong smell. It makes my eyes water sometimes because of how strong it is. Otherwise, a good and cheap alternative for a primer.

This is a fantastic understated primer. I use in the morning and my makeup still looks fresh and in place when I come to wash my face at night around 7 or 8pm. It honestly is great and the price is amazing. I think there has been a huge surge in makeup products and people like fancy bottles and buying into items that go 'viral'.. which is not always a good thing. Rimmel brand has been around for a long time and sometimes budget items like this can be amazing. It does not have to be advertised and over-hyped on social media, or come in a fancy bottle, to be a good product and I find most of the new products are pretty basic and/or terrible quality. I will stick to what I know and this is a great product.

Gave me crazy breakout almost as bad as ELFs green primer which alot of people have had breakouts from, apart from that it actually worked well so I'd actually recommend anyone trying it 😅 but obviously I won't be using it anymore and be going back to revolutions pink tube which is much softer, that doesn't give me breakouts For anyone else with the same issue

Excellent product. I can't find it in the shops.

I have used this primer from Rimmel for many years. For the price, it is a great product, has a long lasting finish that smooths your pores and makes your skin both look and feel smooth. I struggle with dry skin, yet this primer keeps my skin feeling hydrated all day. Sits well under makeup and lasts for a full days wear even when busy such as at the gym. A must use in my skincare routine. Definitely recommend.

I'm convinced this is the best drugstore primer out there. Doesn't break me out, creates a smooth base for makeup with or without other products on my face. Makeup holds up well for at least the first 5 hours before the sweat peeks through, but it keeps your skin from looking cakey and dry throughout the day. Natural-satin finish depending on what makeup you use. I've repurchased this bottle 3 times now, this is a good one.

Skin protection has always been hard for me to remember to put on to increase anti-aging. But now I don’t have to remember I just have to put on my primer and go!

No words... it's just good.

Fantastique et utile!

Good
