Hmmm. What to say about this product? I decided to get this primer to use on its own without putting makeup on over it as was suggested by a professional MUA I follow as a base for a "no makeup" look since it does have a bit of a tint to it to, for instance, brighten up my under eye area(which is quite dark and that may be the real issue here). Overall I did like the way it felt on my skin, and I did apply it all over my entire face to help even out my skin tone(again, as suggested by the MUA I spoke about before)as well as smooth out the texture of my skin. Here's how I really feel about it though; it is an EXCELLENT primer, and just that. There is in no way enough tint to it to improve the appearance of either my dark under eye circles(not too surprised about that though)or even out my skin tone. It DID however ABSOLUTELY even out the texture of my skin and created a perfect kind of pallet for me to then apply makeup on top of. Prior to putting on any actual makeup(once I realized that I was not fortunate enough to be able to use this product in the way the MUA suggested, I actually saw her use it in this way and for whatever reason it did work in those ways for her even though she is much darker skinned than I am, maybe that's the trick!)I was pretty impressed with the way it made my natural skin look, it does have a soft sort of blurring effect on your pores making them just sort of disappear(my pores are not in any way particularly over sized or obvious either though). Overall it gave my skin the appearance of a blurring or softening effect in Photoshop but nothing too out of this world. After applying a very minimal amount of facial makeup(a couple dots of under eye concealer and maybe a quarter sized amount of tinted moisturizer)this primer definitely helped me evenly spread the very small amount of tinted moisturizer I opted to use over my entire face and it looked pretty stellar. It did NOT mattify my face which I was exceedingly happy about as I am not personally fond of the matte look for my skin. Instead it created a very satiny, natural and soft finish. I DID also apply it to my under eyes and eye lids and after putting the moisturizer on I went ahead and put those two dots of concealer under each eye that I then blended out much more easily than usual(whenever I don't use any kind of under eye primer)and because of the...slippery surface it created I was able to then blend the last remnants of the concealer up on to my upper eyelid(my eye lids are just about as discolored as my under eyes, thanks genetics!)again, it was extremely easy to get the minimal amount of product where I wanted it to be and it left my eyes with the same, almost airbrushed(yet still somehow natural?)finish. I applied the rest of my makeup(just a bit of blush and mascara)set it all with a setting spray and went about my very busy day on an extremely HOT day of running errands and being out in 100+° weather. At the end of the day, maybe 10-12 hours later my makeup was remarkably still in tact! Very minimal creasing or settling into my few fine lines around my eyes and mouth. It honestly did look ALMOST like I'd just finished applying it. So between the primer and my setting spray(and 100+° hot hot heat)I was actually really impressed with this products performance especially under the circumstances (me being in a hot car and sweating, wiping my face or dabbing at it rather((DON'T RUB YOUR FACIAL SKIN! IT'S BAD FOR IT GUYS! DAB, PAT AND TAP!))going from hot parking lot into extremely cold stores, etc.)I do feel it performed just about as well as a primer possibly can in this day and age. But every day they are making even more improvements to anything having to do with our general overall skincare regimens(whatever that may all entail)but this primer has been on the market for quite a long time(as far as primers go at least)and it STILL holds up against the newest shiniest most scientifically advanced primers out there. I have some qualms with this brand that will likely keep me from ever purchasing another tube of this be it travel sized like this one or full sized. At least until Benefit can clean up their act a bit more altogether. So to surmise: this primer did not do what I really wanted it to do, BUT it DID outperform A LOT of similar products when used in the way that it is actually intended to be used for and it is a fantastic primer(especially for hot hot sweaty busy days)that is just unfortunately produced by a company that is not going in the right direction as far as becoming more ecologically minded, and they really desperately need to get their act together and finally become leaping bunny certified. It did do what it has always claimed to do. And I'd have to admit that it even outperformed a lot of the newest and more expensive primers out there.If you actually read this entire review, thank you! Also, I am very impressed you made it through my entire diatribe.

If you’re not using this my primer you’re missing out !

I have larger pores & these fill in nicely. Blurs fine wrinkles too.Product has a nice soft feeling. Probably has silicone?

I have used this pore eraser for about 2 weeks. It does a pretty good job of covering up my pores. The couple of downsides to this product is it has a somewhat oily feel to it when applied and the bottle is very tiny. I can’t see this product lasting no more than 2 to 3 weeks if used daily. Therefore it is my opinion that although it seems to do a decent job with my pores, I cannot and will not pay such an outrageous price for such a small bottle. So, I’ll be looking elsewhere for a more affordable solution.

I have large pours, and this stuff just makes them disappear. I will wear this still with or without makeup! This is in my everyday routine.
