What's the use of having expensive makeup if you don't invest in a good primer?

Benefit the POREfessional is definitely one of those products that you can call a beauty secret. Imagine having skin which looks like its been Photoshopped to hide the blemishes and big pores. When I first tried the product, I was really amazed with how my make-up turned out. The texture was good, not oily nor dry. It doesn't have an overpowering scent, as well. Whether used over or under make-up, the POREfessional does not disappoint. It makes you look seamlessly put together without having to go to drastic lengths to achieve a picture-perfect look.

My special someone even asked if I got a facial or tried out something new because my 'face looks so fresh and smooth'. It is a definite must-have for every girl!

Ever since hearing about this product and having read mixed reviews, I have always wanted to try it myself but due to budget constraint i have not gotten this yet. Good thing, here comes sampleroom.ph (thank you!) and I was able to avail of their free sample and got to try it on me.

See, I have oily-combination skin type so I got big open pores on my T-zone area so I really need to give this product a try. So with a clean, moisturized face I applied this just over the half of my face so I can compare it really well. It has a brownish tint and it smells kind of flowery to which I really do not mind using scented products. It is light so it was not able to cover up the discolorations I have but with the pores and deep scars, it did soften up the appearance, filling into it. I waited for it to dry until it felt somewhat like a matte powder. My skin became very smooth and silky to the touch. I still needed my concealer so I placed some on and then I put on my mineral powder foundation over it. And as it claimed, my pores are definitely less visible. I have few deep acne marks that it was less noticeable. Very impressive. Usually after an hour, my face would start getting oily but with this, there was barely any oil.

What I like in this product is it is light weight, does not feel sticky or oily. It feels like you just had smooth talc powder on, just silky to the touch. It has a nice floral scent. It did not make my foundation cake. What it actually did was fill in the pores so that the foundation does not get into it, allowing for a smoother, softer appearance. And another plus is, i noticed that a day after i wore it, got no new zit at all.

The only downside I can say is that it is too pricey. It is too costly for me as I really don't feel like splurging that much in makeups as I try to wear as little of them as possible. But if you feel like splurging into effective products, I think this one worth keeping in your stash.
