Q: this is non non comedogenic?

submitted by liv c - 9 months ago

  • A: Poreless Putty Primer is a water based primer that can help with blurring the appearance of pores. It also infuses extra hydration into the skin, creates a matte surface for your foundation, and helps your makeup last longer.While our goal is to create gentle products, everyone is different and some may experience sensitivity to an ingredient or a combination of an ingredient and outside factors. Because we cannot predict how everyone may react, we do not claim that our cosmetics products are entirely non-comedogenic.

    Disappointing Primer

    I returned this primer. It did not go on smoothly like other primers. It felt heavy under my foundation. The price looked promising, but the product just isn’t very professional. There are much better options available.

    Disappointing

    I just tried this primer, expecting it to be much creamier than it is. It goes on “dry” and stays looking that way. I applied makeup over it and by day’s end most areas the makeup covered (particularly age spots) were visibly conspicuous.

    Poreless liquid primer

    Did try the mini size, but it so small that it could be a sample, so I bought the full size one.

    So smooth

    This primer goes on so smooth and doesn't leave any sticky residue, like other primers. Foundation goes on easily. Normally I have dry areas when applying foundation, but when adding this I don't have any.

    Love it!

    I have taken care of my skin, & don't really have large pores or uneven texture. What I use this for is both primer & foundation. A little concealer, a little powder, & I'm done. Excellent!

    The OG in primers

    Multi-time purchaser. This is a cheap primer that works pretty good for daily wear. I wouldn’t use this for a big event like a wedding, I’d use E.L.F.’s supergoop primer for that. That stuff works awesome too! This pore putty primer is an OG, and for a reason. I miss when the price was only $6, now $11!, but I will still continue to purchase because it’s that good.
