This product was not too bad, but it did not perform miracles. I love the smell and the fact it didn't make my skin feel tight afterwards. My skin is extremely oily, so at some point the matte rescue couldn't block that from happening.
No doubt Benefit know what they talking about in terms of primer !! Love it , I have oily skin and have always struggled until I tired it .. sadly it is bit tough on my budget!!
This is recommended for lovelies with oily skin which I don't suffer from but decided I'd try it anyways as every now and then I love the matte look. My foundation glides on and looks perfect with a great matte effect which by the way does not look or feel dry at all. My make up stays in place until I take it off and pores...what pores ? They are non existent when I have this primer on.
As you may know, from my previous review, I am such a fan of Benefits Cosmetics.
Firstly, who would not want to buy a product that looks SO cool?
Secondly, what really matters most is what is beneath the skin ;) Get it? Okay what really matters most is what is in the actual tube.
This lightweight gel instantly camouflages those pesky pores, which is perfect for a quick fix if you are about to leave the house or have a date night.
This did not perform well on my skin in terms of oil control. I do however think it makes for a great primer. It makes the skin very smooth ensuring that foundation blends easily and evenly. The scent is quite pleasant and it does not linger.
It is quite pricey, so try to get a sample before committing to a full size. I have actually re-purchased this a few times as I like to alternate between this and my Estée Lauder Idealist.
