My skin freaks out as soon as the cold weather arrives. It gets dry and flaky, which makes for a cakey disaster when applying foundation. I am a strong believer in primer to prep and smooth my skin before the rest of my makeup goes on. As a shopping editor, I have tested dozens of formulas, but the newest release from Benefit Cosmetics is currently my top choice for Winter skin woes. The Benefit The POREfessional Hydrate Face Primer (£28.50) is a total game changer.
The silky formula quenches my skin but doesn't leave a greasy, slippery film behind like many other primers do. It absorbs into my face rather than sitting atop it. I also love that it feels refreshing, as if I'm putting on a face cream. Once I add foundation, it blends right in seamlessly; there's no problem with different formulas being layered over each other. Sometimes when a primer and foundation mix, it gets clumpy — but not in this case.
Since the first time I used this primer last month, I've applied it every day since. Read on to see a photo of myself in the primer as well as more details on the product. You can thank me later.
Here's a filter-free selfie of me with a full face of makeup. I used the Benefit The POREfessional Hydrate Face Primer ($13-$32), and it made everything else go on effortlessly. Plus, that dewy glow is coming though.
The Benefit The POREfessional Hydrate Face Primer ($13-$32) comes in two different sizes, so if you want to test it out, you can get the cheaper mini version.
Take my word for it, and give this Benefit The POREfessional Hydrate Face Primer ($13-$32) a test run for yourself.
