Okay so I've heard that monistat chafing gel is a totally amazing dupe for smash box's primer ad urban decay. Has anyone tried this as a facial primer? I have oily so I'm kinda skeptical about this haha let me know girls:)

That sounds a little weird. I personally have never heard of that. That seems to far out of the box to actually work. But you never know, there are some weird cheap substitutes that give killer results.

I use it every single day! It actually works! I used to use the smashbox photo foundation primer and then figured out its the same thing. I also have super oily skin but it seems to work for me!

I use it and I love it!! Definitely a cheaper alternative to the smashbox primer!

I have it & use it everyday. Never going back to an expensive face primer when this has the same main ingredient as the other ones. If you have super oily skin, try Milk of Magnesia as a primer too.

That is the funniest thing I've ever heard. Seriously?? lol Hey whatever works right? Guess it can't be any worse than using Preparation H to reduce swelling under your eyes.

@Jay if you actually read the box, chafing gel is put in areas to prevent the skin from rubbing together. It creates a boundary between the two parts of skin. It's not the actual vaginal cream even though that can actually be used help your hair grow. Lol.

Thank you so much girls!!
Aand I've heard it has the same ingredients that the smash box primer has! I've also seen it on Pinterest lol.

Yep! its really fantastic actually but I would be careful to be sure to clean your face well at the end of the day because it can (like most makeup) trap oils against your skin and cause breakouts.

It would have never in a million years crossed my mind to do that. Smashbox is great and if its got the same ingredients what the heck right? Learned something new today, and got a laugh, thanks guys. :)
