The POREfessional Pro Balm comes in a squeeze tube and a screw on cap - wish it was a flip lid instead for convenience!
The tube is very soft and it’s incredibly easy to get product out, so squeeze gently.
It is light-weight, spreads easily and makes my skin silky smooth upon application - I think from the Silica which most primers have, and I don’t mind that but I know some people do.
I like how it feels, and most importantly - IT WORKS AT HIDING MY PORES!
(for me at least)
I know it doesn’t seem like much in the before and after picture because it’s so magnified, but I tell you, I can see a very visible difference on my face immediately. It’s like my pores have been diffused out! I somehow ended up with very big and open pores on my nose and I’ve always been annoyed by how they look in photos especially - the huge pores make my nose look so bumpy and big - but this thing really helps me!
The Porefessional costs $48 for 22ml of product and is available at all Benefit Counters and in Sephora too.
It sounds a little expensive at $48, but I don’t use this all over my face, just around my nose and the sides of my nose to conceal the pores around the area, and sometimes the forehead. Benefit Cosmetics’ website states that you can use this even on a full face of make up - just be easy with the amount and blend away to hide pores.
Swear to god, I didn’t edit my nose or cheeks at all.
Go give it a try at Benefit’s pretty pink counters if you’re interested!
