Keeps my makeup matte

I recently started using this as a primer for the summer as I get really shiny quickly when it's hot out. I like that it smooths out my pores and give me an even surface to apply my makeup on top of. It does help to keep my makeup looking matte for longer than other primers. Even though it seems expensive for a small container, I do find a little goes a long way!

Great product

This product is awesome for minimizing the appearance of pores and making the skin look evener. However, it is very expensive and you don't get a lot of product for what you pay. Another con: Benefit tests on animals. It is, however, a great product.

Not for my super oily skin

I had high hopes for this, as I hear everyone talking about how much they love this primer. I love how smooth is goes on and how soft it makes my skin feel, but because I have extremely oily skin, I found my foundation would just slip around due to the silicone in this. This would be perfect for other skin types as it really does look amazing.

Great product

What a great primer. You only need a bit and it goes on easily and evenly. It smooths everything perfectly and is a great makeup base! A great product and I recommend!

Wow!

I received a sample in the mail and it was sample-sized, but it sure did the trick! Creamy and worked as a great primer. The only problem is the price, I looked it up and it was really expensive. Though I love this primer, I definitely cannot afford to buy another one.

Decent primer

I recently got this primer from Shoppers Drug Mart. First off, its very pricey! $48 for 0.75 oz! I do find it works well on pores though. The trick is that you have to press it into your problem areas, not just rub it across like how you would apply a lotion. I tend to focus this product around my nose, chin, and forehead, rather than apply to the whole face. It wont ERASE your pores, it provides a silky barrier on top of your skin so that the foundation can gloss on top instead of filling the textured areas. I find I need this especially when using matte foundations! Its also really important to moisturize underneath, otherwise this won't help much! I do prefer this primer to the photofinish, for a similar product. I find it helps the product from separating and sinking into lines over time (around my mouth and nose).

Unsure..

I have mixed feelings about this product! I have been using it for over half a year and still cannot tell if it is worth the hype. I am not a fan of the texture of the product, it doesn't feel very creamy or soft compared to other primers. I also find that if I use this on a dry patch of my skin it enhances the dryness even more. I do think it minimizes my pores but thats all it really does for me.

This is my number one primer. It efficiently hides my pores, and helps my concealer stay on longer. I have oily skin and it doesn't make me more oily or break out. A little goes a long way!

I love this. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and my foundation goes on smoothly when using this. A little bit goes far with this. This really does minimize the appearance of your pores.

I love the Benefit The POREfessional Face Primer because it does a phenomenal job at hiding imperfections, scars (which I have a few of,) acne, and pores! It is super light weight and easy to apply. Skin feels soft and silky upon application. Blends in with other makeup well, leaving it undetectable.
