Baby Skin Primer

I'm going to describe my skin type in case it helps anyone else thinking of trying this. I guess my skin would be described as normal/dry but not dry in the sense of like patches of dry skin...more in that it feels tight a lot of the time so I'm more inclined to describe it as dehydrated. I also have sensitive skin and although I don't suffer from spots or breakouts I will get an odd red blemish if I am sensitive or allergic to an ingredient or product. I'm also in my mid 40's so do have a few wee fine lines so am super careful not to use anything that will settle into them or highlight them. Ok that's out of the way now I really wanted to try this...I have the Benefit Pore Professional and I have read that this is a dupe for that. The BPP works great but I'm not crazy about the price as I wear a full face of make up every day so thought this will be a great cost effective replacement if it works. I have found this also has that silicone feel and a little goes a long way and I have found the best results from this hav been achieved when rather than applying it like a moisturiser I first concentrate on the areas I feel need it first...I have a few enlarged pores around my nose and of course the fine lines around the corners of my eyes so I take a little and press it into these areas gently...sort of like filling in the pores and lines and then blend out from these areas to lightly cover the rest of my face. This method of applying it works so well for me and it does give the impression of blurring out those lines and pores and even before applying my foundation my skin is already looking and feeling smooth. Using this as a base has also cut in half how much foundation I used to apply....instead of 2~3 pumps I only need to use 1~2 at most, foundation applies so beautifully and using this primer I have been able to achieve a flawless and smooth face which is every bit as good as using the BPP. My face looks even and I don't get that tight, dry feeling throughout the day so I think its also helping to lock in my serum and moisturiser. I don't need to touch up during the day and blusher/bronzer are still in place. I'm enjoying this primer very much...if the silicone feel doesn't bother you I'd give it a try if you are thinking about it, just remember a little goes a long way. I'm not sure how this would control oil shine if you have oily skin though...I can imagine it would give some oil control. I have used many primers including Laura mercier, Clarins, BPP, etc and this works brilliantly for me so I'd definitely recommend trying it especially if you have a similar skin type. Hope this helps someone!. :-)

This makes my skin feel incredibbly smooth and really gets rid of all of the pores on my face. I even had a friend ask what product I use because of how well it works. It does make your face feel a little greasy but its not a big deal compared to how well it works.

I wanted a change from my ordinary brand and the reviews for this are very good. It's affordable enough to try and not worry if it's not ideal. Thankfully it's good! I used a small amount (the tube is small but you really don't need much each time), and apply it, wait a couple of minutes then put foundation on. It helps even pores etc, so you have a smoother finish. No irritation, no mess, no faff. I'm pleased with it so far. If it helps, I'm mid 50s. Happy to recommend.

Absolutely love this satin feeling pore primer .. make up just glides on .. All at a very reasonable price for a great product .. You won’t be disappointed… 👍

I have used this before, and I should have trusted my lady instincts that this does not work, for me. I use another product that has been good but I thought I would retry it again and I'm sorry I did as it doesn't help with pores, my opinion.

My usual primer was discontinued so I spent ages looking for one that would be as good. I read the good reviews on this one and it seems to have all the benefits I need for my skin type which is combination and open pores. Decided to give this a go and it does not disappoint! You only need a small amount as it goes a long way. I can't describe the feeling as it goes on my skin but it's a lovely smooth silky feel and drys Matt. Hides my pores and keeps my foundation in place all day! I'm so pleased with this product and hope it doesn't get discontinued like everything seems to when it works well - fingers crossed!

Love this product fast delivery thank u

This does leave the skin looking very smooth and can be a great base but it's definitely not suited to everyone, unfortunately for me it makes my face feel greasy and I break out in under the skin spots after using the product. I have friends with different skin types who use this and find it fantastic though

Molto buono ..pelle morbida, buon profumo pori ristretti...fa bene il suo lavoro..ottimo prezzo.. soddisfatta

Good

Cumple totalmente con ocultar los poros, es ligero y el maquillaje se ve como porcelana. Yo tengo el cutis seco. Me funciona perfecto. No reseca mi piel y no me provoca alergias o rechazo. Honestamente lo recomiendo. Además dura mucho!

Been using it for years and it doesn't seperate.the foundation

Love this new face primer .... cheap amazing product .... as good as Smashbox & quarter of the price ;-)
