Doesn't work for me
This did not work with my face makeup. I put it on like so and waited for it to dry. I then put on my liquid foundation and I waited until it dried. When I went to put on my blush and bronzer it wiped the coverup off.

This stuff works great!
I have pretty oily skin and by noon, I start to shine at work. Using this stuff in the morning before I put on the rest of my makeup has been a savior and I haven't had to do a touch up at work since I started. It also smells good, which I think is great!

Ok
This is an okay product. I usually buy the original pore minimizer and I like it much better. This product is a little runny and I'm not sure about it being a "matte" because I use foundation and powder over it.

My new favorite!
I have tried many different brands and types of primers and brands over the years (Tula ,mac. Bare minerals etc). This had become my new favorite !! It Left my face feeling very soft and smooth. Great if you love for your face to feel moisturized before you apply makeup.

Its perfect for blurring pores but dont get it in your eyes
I used it and immediately noticed my pores blurred. Just dont get it in your eyes because the white part of your eyes will turn red and you'll see your blood vessels BUT I have to admit, after rinsing my eyes with water, it was perfect lol. I still use it every time I do my makeup

Not for me personally
I had purchased this during 21DOB due to all the good reviews it had and i had just finished my porefessional one. I have very oily skin and i normally monitor how oily my face gets when i try a new primer. Normally it takes about 3-4 hours. This one only took one! I felt more oilier throughout the day than with any primer I've tried. The texture itself is nice, it just does not last with my skin.

too thick
I felt I had to use WAY too much of the product to cover my face. It's thick and tacky and doesn't apply evenly.

Not for me
I hate to give reviews for foundation or primers as I have problematic skin. It did sink in quite well and quickly, but didn't keep my face Matte. I don't think it's because of the product, but my extremely horrible congested skin.

Lightweight and amazing primer
I have oily skin and love this primer. Best to give matte look assistance. It has smooth consistency and helps make my visible pores disappear. Creates a flawless base for makeup. Also it is long lasting. Absolutely loved it...

Feels nice on the face and filtered finish
The creamy texture feels light and hydrating on my skin. The finish also feels nice and dewy on my skin. It's not as matte as other primers but does provide a matte finish that the skin doesn't dry but a filtered like finish
