This magical elixer, found them a new brand stan

I actually received a few samples of this from an order elsewhere, and now I’m on this website to buy the full size version. I wish I could have used this in my younger days, because when applying it, if you work it into your skin… pores? What pores! I have never found something with any kind of shine to it, that then also manages to blur/mattify my pores, while also being silky smooth and nourishing. The sadness of a missed opportunity in my youth, stems from sun damage. I don’t dare ever put makeup on, without applying foundation first. I don’t have their foundation (yet), because I’m wary about online shade-matching, but I’ve tried this over my Estée Lauder foundations, and it blends beautifully (better over the hydra, but I think that’s more on the foundation than this). As a primer it works incredibly well, but having combination dry/normal or normal/oily skin depending on the season (it’s warmer now, so the latter), I did have to mix it with a grippy primer for my oily areas. I found that skipping it as a primer in my oily areas, and using it atop foundation worked much better. By itself, it isn’t an issue. It gave me a glow that looked like a combination of youthful vigor and ethereal goddess. I cannot praise this product enough! I’m generally skeptical about whether something is worth its price compared to similar products at a lower price point, from still reputable and good quality brands (drugstore brands do NOT fit this category), or if they’re really marketing the brand itself… and this is not about the brand. They made a genuinely phenomenal product, that only further lifts the name of the brand! I had never paid them any mind until now; I had the high-end brands I preference for various cosmetic and skincare needs… but now I will certainly be giving more of their products a try! I mean… worst case scenario if I don’t like it, I’ll have beautifully packaged makeup, that someone will collect a century from now to record holograms of them trying on, haha! Thank you, Valentino product development, for creating magic with this one.

5 Stars? NO

Why is it that when something is 'gifted' it always gets 5 stars? Not a 5 star product. Does not play well with other face makeup. This is the truth. No, I was not gifted anything.
