The Porefessional comes in a 22ml tube that at first seems quite small for your money but I was pleased to discover that a little goes a very long way. With a secure twist-lid, I have no worries sticking it in my bag and having it bashed about.
The primer is dispensed with a squeeze and, when it leaves the tube, has a beige-peach shade to it, almost like a BB cream. However, on application, there is no colour at all, which was a relief for me, as every tinted product manages to make my pale skin look orange. It has a creamy consistency which, when applied, quickly transforms into a velvet-soft, matte appearance. This may not be the most important aspect of a primer, but it also smells incredible! It has a subtle floral fragrance which I can't put my finger on, but may be orange blossom.
I apply it all over my face using circular motions with my fingertips and find that it smooths over my skin perfectly. It's oil-free so leaves no grease or shine, and is instantly ready for me to apply my foundation. Since using The Porefessional, I've seen a huge improvement in the way foundation applies- much more evenly and smoothly- and appears. I've also found that my concealer blends into my foundation much more easily and leaves a really natural appearance. After using the primer before applying my make up, I find that it stays put for much longer, and maintains the matte, almost powdery finish.
The Porefessional has quickly become a staple in my daily routine. I absolutely love it!

DeleteI really rate the Porefessional too, but save it for 'special occasions' otherwise I'd get through tubes far too quickly!
ReplyDeleteI find it lasts ages with me. I've still not finished the free sample!
DeleteYou have a perfect face. You don't need to put things on it. Xx
ReplyDeleteWhat if I put you on it?
DeleteI only started using primers in the last 6 months ish, I'm actually surprised at how much difference it has made to my foundation. I really enjoy putting it on too haha.
ReplyDeleteI didn't think it would actually make a difference until I tried it.
DeleteI've been using the Smashbox primer, but I haven't really been loving it. Should give this a look!

I really recommend it!
DeleteI've had my eye on this primer for ages but find that most don't sit very well on my skin. May have to try and find a small sample of this somewhere though! xx Sophie/ www.prettyandpolished.co.uk
