[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This stuff is really nice. It instantly makes your skin matte and allows foundation to go on smoothly. My makeup stays for much of the day. I would recommend to others
Good but original better
Would only recommend if skin is lightly oily. Works great on pours an as a base for make up to go on smoothly.
Can you say filter in real life!

I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. This primer works so well. It glides on like butter and literally makes your pores vanish before your eyes. After you apply this you are left with a smooth base ready for any makeup application. It's like wearing a filter in real life. The packaging is nice and simple, which I like and it is fragrance free. This also locked in my makeup so well. *chefs kiss*

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Ummm is this a joke? It did absolutely nothing for my pores or overall makeup application or appearance. I have larger pores and have used products that actually reduce the appearance of them and provide a smoother surface for my foundation, but this was just a watery lotion!
Great for oily skin!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Smashbox Photo Finish Pore-Vanishing Primer has become my new favorite primer. It applies very smoothly like a moisturizer. I have oily combination skin and this product helps minimize my pores. It helps mattify my face so my makeup on stay on longer without needing to touch up as often with powder. A little does go a long way and you only need a pea size amount. Absolutely love this primer!
