Unfortunately, it tends to pill and disappears when you apply foundation with a brush.

It's great for large pores and those pesky pinpoint pores. The formula feels quite robust.

For those with severe pore issues, this is for pore coverage before makeup, absolutely not for oil control! Not recommended for combination dehydrated, dry, or combination skin types in general. If you're looking for a product that controls oil, covers pores, and improves makeup longevity, I highly recommend checking out my review on powder primers! For those who need pore coverage but find Benefit's product unsuitable or too drying, the Vanilla Co. product is much less irritating and not as matte.

While it's effective for pore coverage, it actually damages the skin... Pores become more enlarged, and it doesn't control oiliness. Only recommended for those with extremely large pores...

It effectively fills in fine lines and pores. I bought it after hearing it's better for combination dehydrated skin, but it turned out to be quite matte... Unfortunately, it doesn't control excess oil or improve makeup longevity. Personally, it clogged my pores, leading to more oiliness, enlarged pores, and makeup separation. It didn't suit my skin, so I stopped using it. Only recommended for those with extremely large pores! It's for pore coverage, not oil control. It temporarily seems to work by blocking pores, but over time, the effect diminishes...

I'm not sure if I'm applying it incorrectly, but I can't help noticing a bit of pilling.

As the weather got warmer, I needed a product that could cover my pores. A friend recommended this, so I gave it a try and I'm really pleased with it.

It's best to use as little as possible each time!

It seems to pill a lot and creates something like dead skin cells... so frustrating!

It's great! I use it often and I think it's really good!

I bought it thinking it was the Benefit brand, but the original is way better...

Certain cushions can clog pores... It's maddening...

I'm going back to the original.

It smooths out the nose area when applied.

Fortunately, it didn't cause any blemishes. That's about it.

If you don't get the amount right, your makeup can look really patchy on top of it. You also need to be careful about dryness in certain areas.

I've been using this for years, and I still love how well it fills in my pores. The way it absorbs into the skin is really nice.

For those who want to try it, I recommend buying the mini size first. It lasts a long time, so it's a good way to test it out.

I tried the mini version of this eyelash curler first, but it makes my makeup smudge a bit, even when I apply just a tiny amount.

This is just my personal opinion, but I recommend applying it in a thin layer for the best results.

I feel like my skin isn't suited for primers. My skin became super sensitive. I applied it thickly without knowing any better, which was a mistake.

I had never used a primer before and wanted to try one. After purchasing and using it, I think it's best to apply it in a thin layer.

The price is a bit high for the amount you get. If you're looking for high coverage, you might find it a bit lacking.

Love that it comes in a small size, so I don't have to worry much about expiration dates. It's not heavy, feels soft and light, and covers pores nicely.

But honestly, I can't find any downsides. I've tried to look for flaws, but there's genuinely nothing negative to say.

There's a reason why it's famous. It naturally conceals pores. It's truly a holy grail product, no doubt!

While it was comfortable to use, I felt that its performance wasn't quite up to par with the original primer, at least in my experience.

It applies like a hydrating moisturizer, making it feel lighter than the original Porefessional. I'd recommend this for those with dry skin!

Nothing negative to say. Isn't Benefit the gold standard for primers? It's perfect!

Finishes with a velvety smooth feel thanks to its hydrating formula. It's lighter and absorbs better than the original mint-colored one. Truly highly recommended - Benefit's primer is a trustworthy go-to.
