ConsUnfortunately, these benefits are only noticeable initially. I'm using the 30ml size, and after a while, I noticed the formula changing with each pump - sometimes thin, sometimes thick and creamy (this started about 4 months after purchase). As I'm nearing the end of the product, I noticed a lot of primer stuck to the inside walls of the bottle, so I opened it up. To my surprise, I found the thick silicone formula and zinc oxide had separated into two distinct layers. The pump and walls had the thick silicone cream, while the bottom contained a runny liquid. Mixing these two creates the original primer texture I first experienced. So while it starts off as a non-flaking, perfectly matte primer, the separation causes the silicone to clump on the walls and pump. This means each pump dispenses more of the separated liquid formula. Due to the zinc oxide, applying this liquid-heavy formula leads to dryness and makes makeup flake.
TipGiven these drawbacks, it's best to either buy the smallest size and use it quickly or opt for the 60ml tube version, which allows you to mix the formula by hand before use. I've experienced the initial wow factor and have also purchased the tube version, so I plan to update my review once I've finished using both.

When applied, it makes your skin feel incredibly silky, and unlike other pore primers, it feels extremely lightweight. I noticed that my makeup lasted longer when I used this primer. While results may vary, I didn't experience any blemishes when using this primer.
ConsThe only downside might be that it can leave a slightly white cast around the sides of the nose (the product is white). Although it doesn't matter much since you'll apply makeup over it, those with large pores or a lot of dead skin cells might find it noticeable.

ConsThe price is a bit steep, but other department store brands are in the same range...

I love how lightweight it feels. At first, I didn't notice much difference, but since I work 12-hour shifts where my makeup usually breaks down and gets oily, I've noticed a big improvement. With this primer, about 70-80% of my usual makeup breakdown is prevented!
ConsIt applies so lightly that I feel like I might use it up quickly...
TipFor areas with noticeable pores, I found it works even better if you apply it in small circular motions, gently pressing it into the skin.

The texture is quite different from other primers I've used - it's velvety soft and incredibly lightweight, which I love. While it might not completely cover pores, it's perfect for creating a smooth canvas before makeup. Since you only need a tiny amount of primer, I plan to repurchase the mini size when I finish this one. Best of all, I can use it without worrying about any blemishes!
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet! The consistency is a bit like a thin oil, so it might be good to shake it before use.
TipPump out just a small amount and spread it thinly over your skin using your index finger. Instead of patting, apply it like you're coating your skin with a thin layer. This prevents pilling and somehow makes your complexion look even more beautiful.

The small size sold out quickly after being featured on Get Beauty, so I went for the larger size. Unlike typical primers, it has a lightweight feel. It applies smoothly and silkily, like a serum. It's fragrance-free and provides a natural brightening effect. The packaging is sleek and pretty too. Unlike the Bene** primer, its light texture makes it comfortable for daily use. You don't need to wait long after application - makeup goes on well even if you apply it quickly. It keeps your makeup in place all day without fading. This product is truly the king of primers.
ConsIt's expensive, but you can overlook that since it's vegan.
TipBecause it brightens the complexion, I use it as a highlighter too. After applying sunscreen, I put it only on the areas where I'd use highlighter and where my pores are visible - T-zone, sides of the nose, and front of the cheeks. Highly recommended!

I'm in tears! The YouTuber Lamuqe recommended it, so I initially bought it from Sephora. When it recently launched in Korea, I rushed to the store to get it! It absorbs so lightly that you can hardly tell you've applied anything. The moment I put it on, I was like, 'Wow, what is this lightness?!' As someone with dry skin, I was a bit worried, but it perfectly conceals those pesky enlarged pores that show up in summer without feeling tight. It has great adherence, and foundation goes on top like a dream. There's no better primer for summer! You can say goodbye to blotting papers!
ConsThe only downside is... it's a bit on the pricey side, but the 10ml size is quite reasonable! You don't need to use much, so if the price is a concern, starting with the 10ml might be a good option!

It's an absolute gem, especially during summer. When the weather gets hot, you're sweating, and those pesky pores become way too visible due to excess oil - that's when this primer truly shines. I used to use Benefit's primer, but it had a silicone-like feel, if you know what I mean? It left my face feeling heavy and stuffy after application. But this one? It's incredibly lightweight and applies in a thin, barely-there layer. It covers pores like a dream too! For summer, you really can't beat this primer. I've tried to switch to others, but I always come back to this one. The ingredients are also better compared to many other primers out there. Simply put, for me, there's no primer quite like it.
ConsIf there's one downside, it would have to be the price! That's why I'm knocking off one star, giving it 4 out of 5.
TipInstead of applying primer all over my face before foundation, I focus on areas with larger pores (generally around the nose, under the nose, and the forehead-between the brows area) - just the spots that need pore coverage.
