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!. :-)

ordered 2nd time. Love it & cover the wrinkles & puffyness & pores will shrinken but, use a 1/2 of the pea size will cover all of ur face

Not sealed which is not great but product itself is good. Easy to use and very soft on the face. Made my face smoother for sure and the pores less noticeable.

Love this, feels great on the skin and works!

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.

Excellent product. Does what it says with impressive results. Check it works with your foundation first, then give it a try, it's well worth it.

This little tube of magic is a game changer. I am 74 years old and have large pores on my nose which this stuff eradicates. Make up glides over it very well so what's not to like ? Can highly recommend.

Leaves my skin feeling very soft but doesn't help my makeup stay on all day . I have yet to find a primer that can to be honest. Good value for a primer.

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

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!

Kaschiert die Poren und Unebenheiten gut. Das Produkt ist sehr ergiebig. Benutze seit Jahren , habe schon 3.Mal gekauft.

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

Great for enlarged pore control
