Pore-fect!

If you, like me, have been (un)blessed with pores you could fall into, then this will be of interest to you.



I came across this stuff and liked the pretty colours (just like a girl), and decided on impulse to give it a try. Because I have tried many similar products from top brands such as Clinique and Estee Lauder which did little, if nothing at all to improve the appearance of my pores, I'll admit to being dubious at first.


However, I am thrilled to announce that for the first time since being a wee girl, I can step out with a smooth nose - this product is just lovely!


It works as a primer, doing a polly-filler type thing I guess and it's translucent and skin toned and very silky. You apply it after your moisturiser and before your foundation - leave it for a minute and do something else like your eyes, then apply your foundation as you usually do. It works well enough for me to be able to eliminate powder over my foundation, and it also helps keeps shine away for longer. Later in the day you can touch it up if necessary - just pat it over your foundation on the problem areas.


At R285 for 22ml it's not that cheap - but a little goes surprisingly far and it's well worth every cent, I promise.


I'll definitely try other products by Benefit - they have a lovely range in very pretty packaging - take a look here.
