Bodyography Foundation Primer Clear - Review & Swatch

I am oily skinned during summers and have a dry patchy skin during winters(just for a month or two)...
Ok during summers whatever great foundation i use...i have this issue of oxidised foundation thingy...leaving my face dark and looking like a i have purposely wanted to give a tanned look..grrrr

I wanted a primer but wasn't sure because of my beautiful combination skin....:p
So when i was browsing through HealthKart.com i saw this Bodyography Foundation primer ...It was in two sizes...one a full size  and this one a 15ml ..trial size i guess
This is used by professional makeup artists..:)



So here goes
Price : Rs.375 for 15ml (pretty pricey haaww)


Product Claims:

Since its release, Veil Foundation Primer has become one of our most popular products. With anti-oxidants, vitamins A and E, Green Tea and Grape Seed extract, this weightless oil-free primer fills in fine lines and wrinkles, prevents collagen breakdown and gives the skin a silky smooth, long lasting, flawless base.

    Swatch


    Pros :
    Smooth as butter
    easy application
    does reduce my pore size
    oil free so good for oily skinned 
    very little foundation is required when we use on top of this primer
    makeup stays put for atleast 5hrs or so
    my skin feels hydrated throughout
    very little quantity is required..just a peanut size
    available in many variants
    did not break me out

    Cons:
    Price is too much for 15ml product
    Contains Silicones.


    So overall this is a very good primer...but a pricey one though..
    So which is your favourite primer?
    Love,
