Just like Chicara I was also on the look out for the Palladio Herbal Primer at Dischem but was told that it was sold out. I'm relatively new at using a primer so I wanted to start out with a less expensive product to see if it made a difference before shelling out money for the very pricey Smashbox Photo-finish primer. I really love this product as it has a mattifying effect and really helps to hold my foundation on especially over sunscreen. My favourite foundation Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse is notorious for not lasting for the entire day but over this primer is stays like a champ. It make foundation apply more smoothly and doesn't clog my pores or break me out. I think I'll be sticking with this primer from now on.
