Left a white cast

This mineral primer with SPF was appealing to me, but it left enough of a white cast from the zinc that I would not use it again. It could just be interacting with my skin care products, but this one isn't for me.

Pills hopelessly

I've never had a primer pill so badly and so consistently. I used it once on top of a sheer Korean sunscreen, after letting the sunscreen dry completely. It pilled as I applied the primer. Then I thought the issue was that this has a sunscreen in it, albeit a very light one, so best to not put on sunscreen under it. I waited for a rainy day when I wouldn't be in direct sunlight and skipped my normal SPF 50 and used just this. It pilled again just going over my moisturizer! And this was a very light moisturizer made for people with oily skin, so by no means thick cream. I think there is just no way to use this that doesn't give you all these little balls of product all over your face, looking like you rolled in lint. You can't get smooth foundation over that. How are people using this product with success?
