Right, so I normally would not invest in a CC cream that is this expensive, but I needed something lightweight, good coverage, and would withstand hot temperatures. I was going away to Dubai and Pakistan, I needed something sweat proof, and which looked good in photos. I feel like I did not pay their original price, they may have had an offer on at the time. I love the CC cream, it is very good, did exactly what I wanted it to do. It would last all day, looked natural, photographed well, even withstood sweat some how. I always wore the CC cream with the primer, which probably is why it lasted long. I don't know how I feel about the primer. It is like a moisturiser in my opinion, it doesn't feel like anything is on it, once it is applied. I guess it does correct the dark spots, because they wouldn't show up in photos, but the lady at the counter said it would reduce the appearance as well, as a treatment. I don't think it has done that. Both of these products I apply with my fingers. I first apply the primer, and let it sit and absorb for a bit. I then use the CC cream with my fingers, and blend it into my face. I would repurchase the CC cream for everyday use, and for holiday again. You can have a look at the photos and see. I naturally have an uneven skin tone, and dark spots in some areas.
