This air-light, colourless primer offers invisible coverage for all skin tones. You can wear it alone or under foundation.
What we say:
Avon’s Magix Face Protector had me at “hello”… Anything that says magic on the packaging fascinates me. At first glance the black box and sleek white tube inside indicated a certain type of luxury. And then I opened it. The primer smelt absolutely lovely and glinted slightly – almost like liquid pearls.
Avon’s Magix Face Protector was so smooth it felt like cashmere against my skin. After applying it, my skin also felt velvety, which is exactly what you want from a primer, something that smoothes your skin and preps it for your foundation.
Throughout the day my make-up lasted longer and my skin appeared smoother. I have large pores, and although this product is not magically going to make them disappear, it definitely made them appear smaller. I will definitely keep buying this product in future and would recommend it to anyone.

This really is horrible because is dries flakey and foundation doesn’t agree with it. It was disappointing!
This product made me breakout and it did not enhance the look of my foundation.
This product leaves my face looking very white due to my complexion.
I am genuinely surprised by the quality of this product. It glided smoothly on my skin, minimizing my pores and holding back shine. I haven’t tried a lot of primers but the ones I’ve tried don’t control shine (especially on my T-zone) as good as this one. I recommend this product to anyone who doesn’t want to pay a lot to get great results.
I am very particular as to what I wear underneath my foundation, as ones face can start to look rather lumpy with the more layers your applying. I have found that with the incorrect moisturiser this product can leave a white residue on more darker skin tones and the glowing glitter within the perfector is more prominent. They appear to take excellent effect on lighter and more dull skin tones.
I generally use this product under my foundation. The foundation went on easier and stayed on better. I would recommend that you use a light moisturiser instead of your normal moisturiser when using this product under your foundation. Excellent product.
I wasnt impressed with this primer. The packaging is not attractive, the smell isn’t very nice and gave me a breakout when I 1st used it. Feels heavy after I put on my foundation and makes my foundation slide instead of stay in place. The Avon bb cream makes a better primer than this.
I like how silky this makes my skin feel and it does blur out imperfections but it tends to dry my skin in certain places like around my nose. But makeup looks flawless over it.
Double thumbs up
Because of my dark skin tone this shade is too light. For me its not a face perfector because it tends to make my face look like its been plastered and give me a “ghostly” look. It also has a sparkle effect that makes it look like my face is too oily and therefore shiny.
This is a great base for your foundation as it does not promote oiliness after application.
