I really love how Smashbox has created more targeted versions of their Photo Finish primers since not everyone’s skin is a one-size-fits-all. If you love the original version I would recommend trying one of these new formulas for a more custom experience. Smashbox also offers all of the primers as smaller sizes you can try out the formula before investing in the full size version.
