    Never again!

    Nope, not what it's all advertising… I use a pea sized amount in 4 areas, let it set, seen zero minimization of pores at all and when I put on my powered makeup it just piles up all over my face! Very disappointed what a rip off!!

    Used for years until formula changed

    I wore this just about everyday for years. When the new packaging came out the the formula changed and now it sucks. So oily and doesn't actually fill in the pores anymore. I don't know why they changed an already good product. So disappointing.

    Maybe not

    I was a long time lover of The Benefit Porefessional Primer and re-bought many times. I recently bought this product again and notice the formula and texture has changed. I do prefer the old formula and texture on my skin for makeup. Would love if you kept this product but also bring back the older Benefit Porefessional Primer with the older formula and texture on the e-commerce platforms such as Benefit, ASOS, Lookfantastic and Cult Beuty x

    i would probably buy this again

    It works great at blurring pores and giving me a matte finish on my oily nose. I have been trying primers and this one by far helps my makeup look better and last longer. i'm looking forward to try more products from this line.

    Why have they changed the product

    The original product, before the new packaging and obviously new formula change was brilliant.. It was my beauty must have and I recommend this to everyone. Now it is greasy and doesn't really blur the pores which was the whole point of this product!! When I went In to the store to ask, they said the product had not changed but when I showed the difference between my old tube and new they had to admit it was different. Why Benefit decided to change the formula I I feel is crazy . They had an awesome product used by so many because it was fabulous and did what it was meant to do Shame that I now have to find another brand.

    New formula does not work like the original one

    The new formula in the new packaging does not work. It does not cover your pores at all! Please bring back the original formula or I will be trying new brands. Very very disappointed!

    Not as good as original

    I've used this for years, great at minimising pores but the new version feels really greasy and doesn't minimise pores and wrinkles like it used to. I have had to go and find a new product to use. Please bring back the old version!

    A Great Product Ruined!

    This was a great product, never found anything that worked as well masking pores. No other brand could compete. This makes the formula change inexplicable. Coca-Cola revisited. Hopefully Benefit will follow their example and bring back what worked for years. Will not be buying any more products from this company until they respect their customers.

    I don't know yet.

    Have not used it many times. Jury is not in yet. Feels silky and really nice but unsure if the makeup stays on as well when I use it. Going to give a try again and will let you know
