I'm a huge benefit gal...and yet was still a little skeptical about this one, because I wasn't sure it would make that much of a difference. Wow, was I impressed.

NOT for dry skin
This is not a primer for people with dry or combination skin. The only good thing I noticed about this product with my skin was that it definitely minimizes the look of pores, but the cons outweigh the pros—my skin gets INCREDIBLY dry after applying this primer. Wouldn't recommend to someone with my skin type.
Feels Slippery
The primer feels nice and smooth when I apply it to my face, but after apply the rest of my face I find it doesn't hold as well during the day. Yes, it does minimize my pores, but due to the lack of hold on my foundation I would not recommend it.
I've bought over and over
Does what it says
Love this!
I've used this for years. It definitely minimizes pores and makes your foundation go on smoother. It fills in your pores, so I wonder sometimes if it makes them larger in the long run, but I keep buying it!

I bought my first tube of POREfessional aboard the cruise ship Carnival Celebration. I loved it! And was so happy I was able to buy it at our local Ulta store and not have to order it on line!!
