I have used PT Primer for many years, but am not a fan of the new container. (To be fair, I didn't love the older pump style either because the pump would stop working after awhile but it was easier to unscrew the top.) With this one, I cracked open the container after the pump stopped working only to find a large amount of primer that had collected and dried into a big, gummy, useless blob. It's not inexpensive, so I was pretty disappointed to find so much waste. With a tube, I'm able to trim the end off, giving access to more of the product when it gets low. I like PT Original but for now I'm going back to one that comes in a tube.

Product is a 5 star but packaging is 1 star

I’ve been purchasing this product for about 15 years and always loved it! I just purchased it with the new packaging and only got a few uses from it before it all turned to runny oil. Additionally, the pump itself seems flawed and you have to keep pumping to get anything out. I will not be purchasing this in the new packaging anymore and will switch to the smaller size in the tube.

I love this primer but the bottle does not consistently deliver the product. I preferred when it was in a tube. With the bottle, only get one pump without having to shake and turn the top to try for a second pump.

I have been a fan of this primer for years. With the packaging change, it seems there has also been a change to the product. It's a lot runnier than it used to be. The last one I had was runny, too, but then when it was almost out, the product at the end was very thick. Maybe it's the container causing the issue? I vote for going to back to a simple tube versus having a pump.

Did the formula change?

I love this primer and have been using it for a long time. With that said, something feels different about it since the packaging changed. Did the formula change? My experience with it is that it doesn't perform as well.

I’ve tried others, but nothing else gives me that silky soft & smooth touch that this primer offers. Helps when applying powder foundation for a smooth finish

I’ve loved this product for so long and recently got delivered the pump version. I hate the pump - it doesn’t mix and always squirts out and splatters everywhere. Also super hard to tell when it’s low or empty until it doesn’t come out any longer. Please bring back the tube!

I love the primer before I put on my bare minerals powder foundation original. This is the first time I have received the primer in the new packaging. I do not like the new packaging. I repeat, I do not like the new packaging. You can’t get all of the primer out. I like it better in the original packaging. I’m using it anyway until I can find another product that is as good.

I have only used it a couple of times so far and it seems to be working. My foundation isn't sitting in my pores. Which is why I bought it.

I just started using this so not sure how I feel yet. I am traveling in the U.S. but will be going back to the Caribbean soon. I need to see how it works in our heat and humidity. I used it over the holidays, but it was coolish, none of our normal heat and humidity. I am hoping I love it and I am planning to get the setting spray soon.

Love the Primer. However, it doesn’t mix well in the container. No matter how much you shake it up, you sti get a thin oily substance that dispenses. The old bottle I could take the top off and use why was inside the bottle, I cat seem to get the top off of this bottle. It’s disappointing and I’ll have to find an alternative.
