According to everyone over in MrsGloss&TheGoss on Facebook, the in primer is Nivea men's aftershave balm. The 'sensitive' one. It's supposed to trounce all the pricey ones in terms of performance. Have you used it?

I've been trying it for a few weeks now and quite like it. The smell does fade pretty quickly. I mainly use it on nights out and it holds my makeup better than other primers I've tried.

It is probably worth pointing out that the Nivea balm contains methylparaben which many people try to avoid.
