Smashbox Photo Finish Pore Minimizing Primer | Oil-Free, Mattifies + Long Lasting

Use this with an oily face any hour of the day and your skin will look better than ever. Perfect for large pores and texture. Best primer hands down.

This primer is the best primer of them all. I put it on in the morning and it makes my face feel like glass, no waiting for it to dry. If you have oily skin this is it, it lasts all day, no visible oil showing through and you can’t feel it either. It’s just wonderful. It’s pricey but so worth it!!!!!!!

Love this primer

I have purchased this product in the past. I originally tried it as a sample product from BirchBox. I don't typically buy any expensive makeup products or use a primer but I love the way this feels and looks. This is slightly tinted, I put it on under my foundation and I feel like it spackles my pores over. It is a pore minimizer. You can even apply it over your foundation or wear it alone. Pores are virtually filled in and gone. In the beginning when I first used this product it did not combine well with the foundation I was using which was a color corrector. It just didn't allow some foundation to go on smoothly and would look clumpy. Anyway it was explained to me by an aesthetician that all your products need to have the same base ingredient or they will not apply smoothly. so I changed foundations and use one called Conceal. Love both. I would recommend it if you have pores to hide.

I have slightly oily skin with not necessarily large pores, but some moderate post-acne scars and some very mild rosacea. My skin is, therefore, the opposite of smooth and even. Primers are the most important product for me and I have gone through several of them, but this one truly has a different texture and is able to smooth out my skin. I do combine it with foundation, but for some people, I do not think this is necessary. My only gripe is that it seems to go a little fast and it is pricey. Although to be fair, this is the only makeup product I justify spending a little extra on. Overall, I’ve seen a noticeable difference with this product.

Oily skin here… this is the only primer that works for me. Takes away the shine and blurs redness a little. Will never go without.

My entire life I have felt with acne and super oily skin. No matter what foundation I used or primer I always had super oily skin that midday was frankly just gross looking. I use to stock up on those oil blotting sheets. Even though this is expensive for me it was worth every penny. It goes a long way so you only need a little bit. One bottle lasted me for one year and that was wearing it practically every day. In fact, it did so good maintaining the oil and using my pores that most days I don’t even wear foundation any more.

Wonderful product! Makes skin feel like glass when you put it on and acts like a canvas before putting on foundation. Only con is that there is a lot of air in the tube, so the tube doesn’t last as long as you think it might if you use it several times a week. Keeps my skin from building up oil for about four hours. I then use charcoal blotting tissues to absorb the oil on my face since my skin gets oily throughout the day. A light dusting of translucent powder after that gets it back to its early morning state. I’ve used other primers but this one works the best for me.
