No, I used it for a week and it did not break me out. I have insanely sensitive skin as well but I was dissatisfied with this primer for other reasons...
I recommend using the Korres Pomegranate Mattifying Primer. It's amazing for acne-prone skin!

I myself am super sensitive and love this formula because its silicon free. Try layering this on top of your foundation as well. From one sensitive skin friend to another its truly light on the skin and doesn't clog pores.

If you have acne I would not use a primer b/c they will not help your skin, they will irritate it more. This brand seems less so than most.

I tried an urban decay oil control and it broke my face out bad so I do understand. This product did NOT break my face out and did the most AMAZING job controlling my oil slick of a face. Its a great product...and no break outs for me.

You local Sephora can provide you with a simple :)

Yes, you can ask one of the beauty asst to prepare you a small tube.
Sephora Salesperson asked me if i want it but i chose to buy the whole bottle.

Its a happy medium of cream and lotion, but please note its a bit thicker then most primers. Application is best when the product is warmed between the fingers and patted on the skin....a little goes a long way.

definetely not lotion like, I would go into the store and try it first!

Its best in this order Moisturizer, SPF, Ever-Matte Primer. Remember a little goes a long way, so just pat into the areas of concern

I wear an oil control spf 30 sunscreen everyday and I find this works best AFTER your sunscreen.

Thank you both! I have been messing around with mine for a couple of days and I figured out that I wasn't using enough. It dried too quickly because I was trying to use a pea size amount for my entire face. So that is something to keep in mind.

Another thing I have found is that it works great ON TOP of makeup. I was really upset the first couple of days because this product was making me shiny on my nose. So one day i took it to work with me and took a pea size amount and PATTED it onto my nose. OMG. It worked so well. Its a great primer but an even better touch up due to the fact that you aren't adding any powder that eventually leads to a cake face.

Another thing i found was that it made even my oily oily OILY skin very dry.
it was only by mistake that I found out this next "trick"
I went tanning and immediately after that, I was planning on going to go to a bbq. my oily skin was greasy after the tanning session due to the lotion and i applied this on top of the tanning lotion (After the tan session) and it made me look matte without the dry dry cracking feeling. So maybe for those girls who have oily skin, apply a slightly heavier lotion to the areas of the face that are cracking up after the application of this primer, and it might help you out a ton!

All in all, give this primer a week or two. Mess around with it and once you figure out the right way for it to work with your skin, its great! I just DO NOT recommend this for dry skin gals.

You must shake your bottle!! I find it works best if you just squeeze out a little bit per section and work quickly zone by zone ( forehead, cheeks, chin). Let it dry fully before applying your makeup. Good luck to you!! :O)

Hourglass is far less harsh. I have sensitive skin and I've tried both, this one felt like I was pouring acid on my face. Other than that, I don't know, but Hourglass is lovely.

I went back to Hourglass...so my opinion...stick with Hourglass. The formulation is NOTHING like Hourglass. Very thick and harsh. Tugged at my skin when I applied it. Not satisfied at all.

Another difference between the two is that the Ever-Matte Poreless primer doesn't have silicone in it, while the resurfacing primer does. Not a big deal for many people, but if you have allergies to silicone like me (and many people with "oily" skin are actually just allergic to the silicone in their moisturizers/primers/foundations) then this one is better.

No! The ingredients list a couple types of parabens. I was kind of bummed, but it works so well I will deal. Especially since I use it just on the face.
