Does this work for all skin complexions? I am just getting into makeup, so what I am really asking is if all primers fit all races.

I don't see why it wouldn't! I would give it a try. I have tried this one, Mary Kay, Faces & either Vichy or Yves Rocher (I forget which). They are all very similar and they would all work as a base under makeup. I wear it with only blush myself.

I can't speak for all primers, but this is a white product. If you have darker skin it might make your nose look a few shades off if you use too much, but if you use it sparingly as intended I think it would be fine.

Even though it looks white in the jar, on my skin it looks translucent (racially I am white but not light skinned, more like medium) . it just smoothes all those lines, large pores, scars. and I always put makeup above it because I have discoloration.

I have kinda "yellowish" tones in my skin so I got this one. I'm pale with yellowish I guess you could say lol. I haven't really noticed that it does that. I mainly use it to set my under eye concealer. However, I think if you pile it on, you can eventually get a yellow tint... slightly. I know a lot of the people who were reviewing were different skin colors ranging from pale to dark. So I think it might just depend on how heavy handed you are on it.

Yes! I have extremely oily skin and my makeup would always run off halfway through the day before I started using this as a primer. Now it lasts all day.

I am a women of color I used the product for 8 months and it did not work for me. I also wasted so much money of these products. But I also know that what work for one do not always work for other, I am still looking. Good luck.

I can honestly tell you that it didnt do anything for me. I am hispanic, olive skin. I dont know where all the good reviews come from. I saw one that made it soynd asnifnit was going to really bleach your skin, thats either fake or a total exaggeration. Sorry, i so far havent found anything that really works.

Hi Nikita,I have deep foundation, I am not sure if this will be a true match for your skin tone. I also can add a covergirl whipped creme foundation base 365 if this will help. I think this will be a good match but you can double check on Covergirls website to see the color and see if it would work for you. I hope this answers your question. Thanks, Joanne

Hi there! I would say it depends on how you plan on using the powder. I am a darker skinned woman, so I use the Ben Nye Chestnut all over my face to set my foundation (or by itself if I am quickly running an errand on the weekend) and use the Topaz to set my highlights. You would probably want to use Topaz to set your foundation and the Banana to set your highlights. My best suggestion is to search for videos on YouTube so you can see how the powders look on women of different shades. Good luck! :-)

The only product I use is the Primer. I will tell you though, I was given a sample of the makeup and was not thrilled with it. The Primer beneath may make a difference. If you're looking for natural, try Origins Stay Tuned. I really prefer it to most any other I've tried. When foundation is thicker, it has a tendency to sink into pores and lines. Maybe using less would help. Sorry I couldn't be of more help>

I have a caramel complexion and it works in terms of lightening my blemishes. I've actually used on entire face. I did notice a difference in lightening, but it wasn't too dramatic. I wouldn't recommend as a face bleach...also I wasn't consistent everyday with use...but it did lighten my dark spots, but those are the primary areas I applied it to...it just caused me to break out so I stopped using...

It's a primer, so it goes on before your make up. I am very fair, so I am not sure how much it would really effect the color, if it makes it lighter or not. It doesn't for me. I wear a "classic ivory" shade of foundation. But, I was recommended this product by someone who was very tan.

It comes out of the pump almost a very natural fair-to-medium color. I have extremely hard to match skin coloring. I am in between an ivory and a natural beige...I have a lot of pink in my skin tone and I wanted this to see if it would "lighten me up". Well, it did that and then some! It matched my skin tone, moisturizes, provided SPF, and became a base (primer) for some of my other foundations. I use with Bare Minerals, which I love, but I don't always feel I have enough on...especially if I have a few blemishes. I apply the Skin 79 BB cream with a foundation brush, which I highly recommend by the way...it helps to blend and smooth the bb cream, making your skin look flawless! I know this is way more than you asked for, but don't worry so much about the color if you are anywhere from a porcelain ivory to a medium beige. I think you could even use if you were a darker skin tone that just wanted to lighten up and even out your own natural coloring. You would just have to use your regular foundation on top of this. But, if you are close to any of these colors you should be able to use without using anything else. I have used it alone, without anything but a lip stain and mascara and looked fine and gotten lots of compliments on my skin. It is very moisturizing too. It goes on almost too moisturizing and the first time you think, Oh no, my makeup is going to run and smear! But, if you let it set for a minute or two after applying, it becomes velvety and smooth, not greasy at all. It is more of a nude shade once applied...I hope this helps you. I do recommend this product. I ordered it almost a year ago and I still have quite a bit left. It doesn't take much to cover well and again, I cannot stress how much a good foundation brush will help. It will make your skin appear flawless. Have a great day! :) You will not be disappointed with this product!

It's actually one of the best primers I've ever used with mineral makeup and you don't have to use as much makeup as you usually would. I have very deep and enlarged pores and most primers don't quite do it, but I'd give this one a 10. Hope this helps you.

I would agree with the other ladies. It is a light beige colour. I think the reason there is no colour name on it because it seems to work on every skin types because I'm 64 caucasian from Scotland and my adopted daughter is honey coloured because she is from Colombia and she can wear it too! I use it under bare escentuals powder and ALWAYS get people telling me what lovely skin I have and they always ask if I'm wearing makeup or not because it's hard to tell. I would definitely recomend it if your skin tone isn't very dark.

I have combination skin and don't know how this product would work for very oily skin. I would suggest using a makeup primer by the same brand - it helps me.

What exactly is your question? If you are asking if it will even out your skin tone, my skin tone is pretty uneven and I don't notice a difference in my skin color after using (nor did I expect to) but the lotion overall works fantastically!

Dear B. Dupree, Thank you so much for your inquiry. We advertise this product "For Dark Skin Tone" because it's the darkest in Skin79 product line. Skin79 Bronze suits for people who thought colors of Hot Pink, VIP Gold, Vital & Snail B.B are too light for their skin. I think it's not appropriate to let you know that African Americans with dark skin are able to us this B.B. I can send you one sample to you for free. Please provide us you shipping address and we will send you one sample with 1~2 business days (Domestic Shipping Only). If you have any other question, please feel free to contact us again. Thank you. Best Regards, Katie The Babe

It works well on most skin tones but if you are super fair I would suggest Too Faced Milk Chocolate...it is just as good but not as dark.
