Napoleon Perdis Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer - GOLD

Love the new gold packaging. This is the only primer i use. I love it. gives great results.

This is actually my second bottle. First one lasted me almost 12 months, using almost daily! Great value for money. Makes the foundation last at least twice as long...smoother longer lasting finish to the foundation that goes on over the top. Highly recommend! Cannot live without!

This primer feels amazing and luxurious and is the perfect base for any foundation. It's also wonderful to use alone on those days you don't feel like wearing makeup as it keeps your skin matte but really well hydrated

Have used this for a while now and love it so will stick to it. Just as the foundation does!!!

A little goes a long way. Used to use MAC but this lasts longer, therefore better value for money. It also makes my make up really easy to apply. I would highly recommend this product!

I've been using it under foundation for years. Good product. Helps makeup stay on and provides good hydration for mature skin. Helps stop makeup from sinking into lines.

Have used this product for a long time. Last me about 1 year and I use it almost every day. It allows my foundation to stay on all day.

Really like this product as it makes my foundation go further and stay on longer., you only need a small amount also it it is good value.

This is honestly my favourite make up product, the smell and actual texture of this product is so beautiful and very luxurious. Its so smooth on the face and allows for an even application of foundation, I am prone to breaking out and have an oily t-zone how ever this product prevents me from breaking out as it creates a barrier from the make up and skin (what primers are supposed to do) it also makes my make up stay on all day even with my oily t-zone, it is quite dewy but that's the finish I love!

I recently tried out this primer for the first time, and I'm actually really impressed. I'm not usually wowed by primers, but I've noticed the staying power of my makeup has improved since using this product. In saying that, I do use Clarins Beauty Flash Balm over the top of it before foundation, and Laura Mercier's Radiance Primer mixed with my foundation, so there's a few priming products thrown in there, but I'd recommend Auto Pilot, and I'll buy it again!

Whilst the gold packaging is really sweet (I'm a huge fan of bling), the actual product inside is everything its hyped up to be. I borrowed a friends once and immediately went to buy my own. While its not the best option out there to hide pores, make up really glides on and lasts all day. Its not drying, doesn't make your skin break out in spots, and mixes easily with foundation if you're looking for a more sheer look. I love this product and have always returned to it after using other primers

When I'm rushing around in the morning, there have been a couple of times I have forgotten to put my Napoleon Perdis Gold Auto Piilot Primer on.... I soon realise though. When I start to put my make up on, my face just feels dry and yuck! (And that is after I've already put moisturiser on!) When I put make up on AFTER my awesome Gold saviour, my make up goes on silky smooth and my face feels fabulous! I just won't wear make up now without it. If I don't have time to do the whole face make up thang, I'll still put my Gold Primer on by itself to smooth out my skin. Trust me, when you try it, you will realise your money has been well spent! As good ol' Molly Meldrum says, 'Do yourself a favour' give this one a go!

So soft and smooth. Definitely helps keeps my make up on longer

Napoleon Perdis Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Primer is a great primer to use. It has a lovely feel to it and absorbs into skin nicely.

I bought this product to try because it was getting so many rave reviews here. It definitely feels like it's helping me in some areas, but not so much in others. I have oily skin, particularly on my nose.

Pros: holds my foundation in place very well; I like the light scent; a little bit goes a long way; breakouts seem to have decreased during use.
Cons: does nothing for my pores - my foundation sinks straight into them; does not help much with oil control.

Overall I think this is a good product, but it isn't working as well as I would have liked for my skin type. Happy shopping everyone!

I love primers. I have tried one heck of a lot of them too: professional ones, mineral ones, ones from Japanese and Korean companies, cheapie ones, ridiculously expensive ones (I maaaaay have a bit of a problem)... But this is the only one I have ever used up, and - GASP! - bought a back-up for.

So here's what I like in a face primer:

- not heavy on the silicones (and come on, people have literally found that a dupe for certain famous primers are anti-chafing creams and lubricants.... No thanks.)
- scentless/very light fragrance
- increases the wear time of my make-up
- skincare benefits
- must feel moisturising
- must be undetectable
- convenient, hygienic packaging
- makes my foundation glide on beautifully
- does not break me out or make my sensitive skin uncomfortable

... and hey guess what, this primer actually is all that. This primer is a little bit scented (it's a very pleasant scent and not overpowering - and it fades quickly).
If you're after something to help with extremely oily skin I would recommend something more mattifying, but for most skin types this should be perfect.

One tube will last you longer than a year, even with daily use - it's fabulous!
