Re: best kept secret? maybe ;)

Just wanted to update that I found it at a CVS by me Chat Icon Right with the other monistat stuff.

I was using it instead of moisturizer, but my skin would be dry in spots and I didn't like that when I applied my makeup. I'm going to try it again, but first put on moisturizer.

Silly question - do you have to wait a while after you moisturize (like to let the moisturizer fully absorb/dry), or can you just put the primer on right after you put on the moisturizer?

hmmm. good question I would like to know the answer to this too. I'm going to try and find it today. If you don;t mind telling me, which CVS did you find it in? I figure I am going to try Target on 110 too but if they're out... then maybe I can go to the CVS where you bought yours?

makeup artists (and if you search online) say that it's better to wait for at least 5 minutes after applying a moisturizer and then apply a primer. And then wait again , to let the primer absorb and settle a bit before applying makeup.

Sorry, I'm in Queens so I doubt that helps you! I did have to go to like 3 or 4 places to find it. The best was at Duane Reade by my house... the lady I asked for help called a youngish man over to go help me find it in the store... so there we are in the sanitary section and I say, well maybe it's somewhere else like by the lotions? And he goes, oh no, all the women's fungal items are here

I was like, well no actually this isn't for an infection, it goes over the skin to prevent chaffing. And he just looked at me as if saying "yeah sure lady, nice try"

Thanks! I ended up finding it in Target. It works really well. I applied moisturizer and let it set for a few minutes. It's great!
