Over the next few months, I am going to begin a throwback series here on my site. I am going to be delving back in my makeup collection to the items that I loved many years ago and reviewing them in comparison to some recent releases that have captured my attention.

These are the items that I once raved about, but over the last couple of years they have taken a backseat while I try other items. To begin, I am going to start out with a cult classic, the Benefit Porefessional Primer. When I think back 15 years, this was one of the biggest products and it has remained in my collection ever since.  

 

 

Why I wanted to dig this back out.

The main reason why I wanted to dig this out of my collection is because to me, this was always a true reliable item. Whenever I needed my makeup to look good and stay in place all day long, this was the product that I reached for. I knew that it would stay in place, be good quality and look fantastic all day long. Plus, with some amazing newer releases, I wanted to see if this can really hold its own in comparison.

 

How it looks on the skin.

I apply my primer as soon as I have finished with my SPF and allowed it to sink into the skin a little. For me when it comes to the Benefit Porefessional Primer, I apply a small bit onto the tip of my finger and then apply it primarily into the areas what I need my pores smoothing out. Instantly and without much effort needed, it looks seamless and helps to hide my imperfections without adding a mask of coverage to the skin.

 

What this does to my makeup.

Just as this makes my skin look nice and smooth before I go in with my foundation, it does the same once I am layered up with all of my products. I think the good thing about this Benefit Porefessional Primer is that it also keeps my makeup looking good all day long. It keeps my oils at bay and looking fresh all day long, and that is all I want when I am heading out for the day and I need my makeup to look good.

 

How this compares to other primers.

If my memory serves me right, the Benefit Porefessional Primer was one of the first primers that I ever tried. I didn’t know what to expect and to be honest it blew me out of the water. Since trying this for the first time, I have got my hands on hoards of other primers over the years and many of them have been pleasant to use, but there have been very few that have stuck around for the same duration as the Benefit Porefessional.

 

Will I continue to use this.

After having this in my makeup collection or so long, I know that I will without a doubt keep one on hand for future use. This has been a longstanding product of mine for a reason, and I don’t see that changing any time soon. Plus, when it works as good as it does, why would I want to stop using that? It is a fantastic item that is really fantastic and one that I can’t help but recommend to people.

 

As always, I hope you guys enjoyed this post and learning more about the Benefit Porefessional Primer. I have been using and loving this product for a very long time and I don’t see any sign of that slowing down any time soon. For me, this is an item that’s stood the test of time and I still thoroughly enjoy how this looks on the skin. Whenever I get people ask me for my recommendations on a good quality primer that doesn’t break the bank, it is the Benefit Porefessional Primer.

 

As always, I will link to this down below for you guys. Leave me a comment and let me know if you have tried this and what you think about it in comparison to other newer releases.
