didnt work...
I have really large pores, dont know why, just was born with them, i had hoped the maybelline was a drugstore duped of the benefit pore-fessional one but it definetly wasnt... although went really smooth on my skin and it didnt cover up my pores :(
Not a pore eraser.
I did say that I would recommend this product only because it does smooth the skin and helps my makeup stay on and look smooth. However, it does not help my pores look any smaller like Benefit's similar product does.
Something else I did like is how little you need, it does go a far way with a small amount.
I might buy this again in the future but I'd rather something that makes my pores look smaller and last longer.
I did not care for this at all for my skin type. I gave it a try twice to see if it just needed time but it was a fail both times. It is very inexpensive which I thought was good if i liked it I would not have to spend much to keep purchasing it. I did not use the whole tube, I believe i threw it away. I have oily skin and this just made the oil worse for me. While i wore this too it made the makeup not stick to my pores which made my skin look even worse. It felt very oily as soon as i put it on and i tried letting it set or dry and then put make up on but nothing at all worked for me, I know other people love this but for me it was a no for sure.
I used to love this because it is similar to Smashbox Primer but for a fraction of its price! However, I didn't quite like the finish of it and it wasn't hydrating enough for me. Now I found a better primer from VDL and it is less expensive than the western high end primers. I definitely recommend checking VDL primers out if you like the glow finish since it is not a matte one.
This product does a fairly good job at minimising your pores, meaning there are better products and there are worse especially for the price! 11.99 CND for a small tube like that I would recommend spending you're 11.99 somewhere else.
On the odd day that I have dry skin this product works so so well I love how it literally looks like my pores get erased I usually don't even put anything on top it just makes my skin look so good. However on most days when I have super oily skin this is a no no. The product itself is oily so it really isn't ok just sits on top and rubs off. But if you have dryer skin I definitely suggest this works wonders.
I know some people can swear by this but me personally i did not like this at all, tried to give it a week of tying it out and then one more try later on but nope had to throw it away because my other make up junkie friend tried it and did not like it either. i tried using a little and tried using a little more, all different amounts and nothing would work for me. i have oily skin and i found that this make it so much worse and it had a really oily texture it did not go matte like other ones and i found that it makes my pores appear bigger like my bb cream would not go over my pores that were covered in the baby skin.
I bought this product hoping that is going to work for me, i have oily skin and makes my skin more oily during the day, i do not like the texture was a total failure for me
I am putting a 'you betcha' because this works for MOST people. I, however, had a bad reaction- my skin went zero to sixty- it felt like a burning feeling. I have sensitive skin so I was skeptical about what they put in this product. I find Maybelline is generally a safe brand, but maybe there's something not right with this one, or mine specifically. But I've heard the opposite and people swear by it. Try it. See how it works for you.
I love the Benefit Pore Eraser primer but I always hesitate because it is quite pricey but this is considered a dupe so I thought I would try it - It was horrible.
The texture was so slimy, almost plastic-like and felt very thick on my face like my skin could not breath. Every time I touched my face I could feel the primer and it did not feel smooth or velvety, it just felt greasy.
Typically my foundation and powder stays put throughout the day but with this as a primer my makeup was running and faded off within a few hours. I thought maybe I was applying too much so I did give it a few other tries and used less and less of the product each time and I was still left with the same result.
Although my skin did not necessarily FEEL good this primer did seem to "blur" my pores so my skin did LOOK good and smooth. So, if you are able to see past the texture and consistency you are left with really nice looking skin but unfortunately it does not last long.
