Did not like the Nanoblur at all. Goes on smooth enough but seems to leave a sticky cakey feeling. Appears to leave a dull film on skin. Not what I expected at all.
I really didn't like this product for a few reasons.
First of all, I thought this product did the exact opposite of what it is intended to do. I purchased it with the intention of using it to create a nice smooth base for evening makeup application. Even using the smallest amount on my face I felt like it gave my skin a rougher, dry type texture that it didn't originally have and caused my foundation to look flaky. If anything, this product made me look OLDER! My skin was not dry at the time of using this so I am not sure why this happened but I ended up having to wash off my makeup and start over without the Nanoblur.
It felt nice coming out of the tube, like it would go on silky but for me, that wasn't the case. I've noticed others mentioning that you can mix it with moisturizer for better results but for me that defeats the purpose of buying a product that is supposed to work a certain way to begin with. Maybe it just didn't work with my skin for some reason, but because it didn't I can't recommend it.
Well there's pros and cons with this one!!
PROS:
*Great at camouflaging pores, and if you have textured skin it's great for that and does help you look younger!
*great for special occasions that aren't too long (5hr-ish)
*(you need a VERY tiny amount and the way it worked best for me was to mix it with a HYDRATING mattifying gel like "Bioderma sebium Matt control" or "Vichy hydrating mattifying gel" it just helped to spread and look better
CONS:
*If you use TOO much it dries out your skin and makes you look OLD (so use a tiny amount and try mixing it with a HYDRATING/light moisturizing gel, and that that controls oil if you get oily)
*it's REALLY hard to make this work with liquid makeup, like REALLY HARD!! - UNLESS.. you put the makeup on first and then TAP it LIGHTLY on top, on JUST the places where you need it (for me it was forhead, cheeks, nose and chin and it's best If you mix it ^^ with a tiny bit of HYDRATING/moisturizing gel so it's not so thick/stiff BC by itself it goes on kinda blotchy, AND make sure it's a HYDRATING mixture u use BC the nanoblur is DRYING
*It's hard to work with
*it doesn't last all day but it lasts a decent amount of time and I would reapply halfway through the day usually but Im also a very oily skin type so that's prob why
*May clog pores*** I think it was the cause of my pores being clogged so I wouldn't use this everyday If you have enlarged pores, maybe 1-2 times a week
*I am a combination very oily skin type with occasional acne
This is one of the products I don't like to be without. If Applied properly, as a final step in makeup routine (or right before powder) this stuff does wonders at making all those fine lines dissapear. I wish the effect would last all day, but can't expect miracles without surgery. This however is a pretty damn good filler out of the many I've tried.
This has become part of my daily ritual. I apply under my eyes around crows feet. It seems to give it a smoother effect. I find it dries quickly and I don't feel it at all. You need a tiny bit, I bought my tube a year ago, use it daily and am still good for another few months! There is no smell, it dries clear.
This is an awful product! It doesn't work at all.It's very sticky,tacky and it doesn't absorb well leaves your face stiff feeling! If you try to wear cover up/foundation or concealer under it or over it if doesn't matter it balls up on your face.Feels cakey heavy gross on your face! I also didn't find it worked all!! Safe your money $$ don't buy this!
I recently went to an Indeed Laboratories event and was given Nanoblur to try out. I am impressed at how it really does blur any imperfections you want to hide. I apply it and add my powder foundation on top. Its a nice addition to my beauty product collection!
This cream is pretty cool. It actually works pretty good. You apply it after your moisturizer either under your foundation or by itself and it makes you look smoother and younger.
I'm not sure if I should recommend this optical diffuser cream. Maybe because I have bad vision, I'm not seeing a lot of difference. I am in their target age range - but I don't have a lot of face wrinkles. I do have some uneven colour and enlarged pores. Nanoblur works on the visibility of pore size and gives me an instant matte finish. I don't like piling on product because that never bodes well for an acne-prone skin, so I bought this about 2 years ago, and have only used it about 4 times. It says use on top of make-up, but the website says you can mix with foundation or moisturizer. What happens if I use a mineral make-up - you shouldn't really apply cream on top of powder. While there are limits to it's effectiveness for me, it's an incredible price for something that works... and will work better and better as I age!
This has got to be the best product on the market, I absolutely love it!! Not only does it do exactly what the box says it will but it gives your skin a smooth and flawless look, makes your pores and fine lines smaller and the best part....makes you look younger!! The only recommendation I would give is to apply it after your moisturizer before applying your makeup, not the other way around like the package says. By doing it this way you will receive better results! Love it!!
