My Thoughts:
I had high hopes for this primer, but unfortunately I did not see the results promised. While it did not irritate my skin or clog my pores, it did not reduce shine the way I had expected, and caused mineral makeup to actually collect in my pores making them more noticeable. The price is reasonable for this type of product, though it does contain a few ingredients that are moderately hazardous.

Though this product has not been reviewed specifically on the Cosmetics Cop website, the following is their brand review of Philosophy:
Strengths: Relatively inexpensive; some of the best products are fragrance-free; very good retinol products; selection of state-of-the-art moisturizers; skin-lightening option that includes sunscreen; great lip balms, including those with a tint; impressive specialty makeup products
Weaknesses: Irritating and/or drying cleansers; average to problematic scrubs for face and lips; at-home peel kits far more gimmicky than helpful; most sunscreens contain lavender oil; several products include irritating essential oils; insufficient options to manage breakouts; the majority of makeup items do not rise above average status.
