When it comes to a game-changing primer, I’ve always been somewhat of a Goldilocks, always searching for a formula that’s just right. In my never-ending search, I’ve found some formulas leave an unwanted residue, while others fade too fast. Yes, I’ve pickily tried lots upon lots of brands, but my quest for the right formula has finally ended once I was introduced to the NEW! Body Shop All-In-One Instablur Makeup Primer.
4 Best Skin-Perfecting Pore-Minimizing Primers: Kiehl’s, Avon, Dr. Jart+, L’Oréal Paris
Unlike the primers of my past, this naturally-based gel (buh-bye gross silicone formulas!) works like a clear putty to blur out facial imperfections fast. And unlike the other brands that just sit on top of my skin, this pore-reducing blend uses Community Fair Trade marula oil to keep your makeup lasting all day long.
Okay, so, here’s me without any makeup. As you can see, I’ve got some spots, unwanted shine and scarring I’d like to cover up. Here’s where this priming baby comes into play: To use, simply apply a small quarter-sized amount of product into your palm and apply to your face.
Even without makeup, you can see that once applied to the skin, this product works hard to reduce that oily shine that gets in the way of picture-perfect selfies. Making my face a lot more matte, this formula uses spherical light reflecting powders to even hide blemishes that won’t seem to go away.
Finally, it’s time to see how this primer works when paired with some heavy-duty makeup. Now, I love to load up on BB cream, glow powder and concealer, but I was amazed how this primer made application a cinch. Instead of just weighing down my skin, this product allows your skin to breathe, no matter how many layers of foundation you have on. Plus, boasting 12-hours of protection, it’s hard not to fall in love with this beauty life saver.
