Pore Master Sebum Control Primer (25ml)

I’ve tried the mattifying gel before and it worked really well as a primer. So I was curious as to how the actual primer would perform.

Just like the gel, the primer is packaged in a simple green tube. The product has a tan color just like Benefit’s Porefessional. It has a slight sweet smell that reminds me of candies. The product applied easily enough and blended into my skin really well. It did not leave any sticky or tacky residue on my fingers unlike Maybelline’s Baby Skin Primer or Benefit’s Porefessional. It did a good job covering up my pores and worked wonders with my oiliness. I was really shine free for most of the day. And when I did my routine blotting midday, the blotting paper did not have as much oil as I expected. It’s a great primer and with a price of more or less P500, it’s definitely a steal. But it doesn’t do much for color correction. I still find my red spots visible through my BB or CC cream, or any foundation with a light coverage. I still need to use color correctors when I don’t use my Milani foundie.

I still have one more primer to try before I decide which primer to stick to for life. A friend recommended Milani’s primer. I am definitely putting that on my list. But until I get my hands on some Milani primer, I’m pretty satisfied with Aritaum’s. 😁
