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. It wasn't so much minimizing my pores as it was taking away all the oily shine from my face and allowing my makeup to stand out more! So ...

Don't get me wrong, I love Benefit. Who doesn't love the darling vintage illustrations, quirky packaging, and cute names, but I have to say I'm disappointed with the Porefessional Primer. Pros: 1.

Wish I could give this primer 10 stars. I've been using it for years and have tried many others that don't come close to the powers of this product! It blurs, mattefies, and provides the perfect base for makeup to stay all day. I have combination oily skin and it is the only primer I've ever tried that goes on and stays matte.
I love, love, love this product!
I bought the small one for my 13 yo daughter and now she wants the full size! So smooth and even. NO oily feel and other products go over it easily.
Tinted Benefit Pore Primer
Great light coverage option when I'm somewhat tan and mostly when at home & weekends when there isnt anything to get dressed up for. Feels great and doesnt cake. Can also use under foundation. I do feel like its a little pricey for the amount you get since you can get a full size prestige foundation for around the same cost.
Great product !
Ive been buying this product for years ! Great product !
