Great hydration and effectively blurs pores

It preps my skin nicely for makeup, making it last longer without feeling heavy. A handy addition to any makeup bag.

Ew!

No matter when I apply this in my skincare routine, it always pills up. This is the exact opposite of its purpose! Even when I wait HOURS between moisturizer and primer. It's nothing like the regular POREfessional primer. If anything, it's actually less moisturizing. Total waste of money IMO.

POREfessional Hydrate Primer

I can't live without it! Only thing that makes my nose pores seemingly disappear! I can even wear this alone without foundation with just a little of their loose powder over and voila! Perfect on light makeup days or under a full application of foundation. Buy it! It really works!!!!!

I have dry skin and this primer visibly reduces my pores, it has now "ingrained" into my daily makeup routine
