Goodie bag gift. Definitely didn’t help much to cover the pores on my face.
An absolute banger
Received in a gift bag. Used every single bit of it. Will repeatedly purchase. I had never bought into pore minimising primers, but love this product. Really elevated my make up look..Favourite primer I’ve tried
This is the bet primer I’ve tried and I’ve tried many. Fills in the gaps and a beautiful finish for my fair to medium skin. Brightens and subdues yellow from foundations. I took of a star because the full sized is tiny for the price! I first tried this from a promotion.smoothing
Smoothing primer if thats what you're looking for. Honestly I can't really tell the difference between this and the original. This has a small amount of micro glitter but its barely noticeable.A trusty primer I've been loyal to for years
Absolutely love this primer, in my opinion, it's better than the original porefessional (and I love that one too). The best thing about this primer is that it helps my makeup stay on all day and does reduce the appearance of my pores, especially once I have makeup over the top too. It's a nice, silky texture, and sometimes I even wear it without makeup! It gives the skin that little bit of extra r...Read Moregood
That primer is really nice, it's very smooth to my skin after applied.loveee this
new favourite primer, makes my foundation go on so nicelyPore helper
Very good primer and definitely recommendedamazing
I've tried this one and the other blue professional primer. I would say they are both similar. VEry good primers. I would say that this more luminous dewy type
Lovely finish
This is similar to the other benefit primer but this one makes the skin look more luminous and less matteNice Touch
This is a great alternative to the original Porefessional.
Adds a hint of pearlecent shine to you skin which can come through your foundation, giving off a slight glow.
May not be suitable with those with oily skin but it does not exaggerate those with slight shine or larger pores.Pearl primer
It is the same as the original POREfessional primer but with a little bit shine that reduces dullness.Didn’t think it would of worked!
I have massive pores on my nose and this totally blurred out everything! Worth the hype!Not much difference
As a primer it's fine, I haven't noticed a difference with my pores thoughYou NEED To Try This
If you’re like me and have huge pores, you NEED to try this. It blurs your pores to a point that you have a completely flat base to work with. Seriously, you should see the difference in my nose. That speaks for itself.Looks beautiful – not great for my skin
I LOVE how this looks under foundation, so creamy and beautiful. However, almost every primer seems to block my pores no matter what I do. I had more luck with this product than most, but still some issues. Would consider repurchasing, but not completely sold.not the best
i tried to like this primer but whenever i put makeup over it, it crumbles. i don't know why it does that but i used moisturiser and then the primer then makeup and it crumbles. so it is a miss for me.not sure
i couldn't really see much of difference in my pores I prefer other brands for primer :)nice
I love the benefit porefessional primer it's my ride or die. So I decided to try this one out as well. This one gives that glowy dewy look and also minimises my pores.Love
Received as a sample & really love it. Another great Benefit "pore"-hiding primer. Can give a dewy look rather than matte, so depends on what other make-up you pair with, to give natural look. Love the feel - just very expensive.Great Primer!
This is a great primer, it really does make you look pore-less. Lovely smell and a slight highlighting effect. Mattifies without drying. Will be purchasing again!Love it
At first I wasnt so sure about it, but I tried it again & it really does smooth our your skin making it look really clear and smooth, i havent tried it under make up but i can tell it would work well also. Will be purchasing in the future.Minimises the pores on my problem areas
Received as a gift with purchase and loved the results. Definitely noticed that it minimised the appearance of the pores on my nose. Would have given 5 stars if the price point wasn't so high for a primer.Amazing primer
I received a sample of this primer, i used it for a week and it is amazing! A little goes a long way, after foundation it left my skin looking smooth and flawless and improved the longevity of my makeup. It felt a little drying on my skin by the end of the day, but the improvement in the appearance of my makeup was worth it.Saving my 'glazed donut' skin daily!
Having oily skin that resembles a glazed donut by 3pm every day, this product brightens my skin, gives it a matt finish perfect for makeup, and minimises the look of pores. I received it initially as a sample and purchased the full size version immediately! I LOVE IT!Silky smooth skin
I received a sample of this product and it is lovely! Smooths skin texture and blurs imperfections. Perfect base for makeup or you can even use without makeup.Natural radiance
Amazing under make-up, but it is my go to over my moisturiser for silky smooth skin all day. No fines lines.Really Great Primer
I really love this primer! Even on it's own with no foundation, it smooths out my skin and gives me a healthy glow. I don't think it quite fills my pores like it suggests, but it definitely makes my skin look more even.Really Great Primer

This is a great primer and it makes my makeup stay on all day. It makes my dry skin appear glowy and minimises my pores.
Smoothing
I was shocked at the reviews for this as I received this as a sample gift and tried it, loved it. I don't ever use a primer because have never noticed a noticeable difference with one... but this one is so good! as soon as I put it on my face my pores were gone, skin smooth, and my born this way foundation looked so good on top.Nothing changed
Goodie bag gift. Definitely didn’t help much to cover the pores on my face.Blurs pores minimally.
The POREfessional Pore Minimizing Makeup has an ultra-lightweight formula that promises to control excess oil for up to eight hours and blur pores at the same time. We sure wish it did just that, but unfortunately there are some significant issues that hold this product back.
We first have to point out that Benefit calls this "face makeup" to "target problem areas" rather than referri...Read MoreDoesn’t work :(
This didn’t work well for me. I found that it kept balling up when I would try to apply products on top even after waiting a while for it to settle into my skinWasn't my vibe
If you like pore clogging primers then it would be OK for you... BUT If you have acne prone skin (like me) then I would not recommend it... I think it made my skin worse and it made my skin feel heavy and unable to breathe.Not as good as I thought it would be
I didn’t hate this primer but also didn’t like it either. It’s VERY thick and the bottle isn’t very big so I felt like I spent a couple minutes just rubbing it into my face.Great!
It makes my dry skin appear glowy and minimises my pores. This is a great primer and it makes my makeup stay on all day.
Amazing
This gives me a dewy finish and makes my foundation look greatGreat!
I have large and noticeable pores on my cheeks and they were minimized instantly. Works great and adds a dewy glow too. Great product from benefit again.
Amazing
I do love this primer, it helps fill in my pores to give a smooth look, but i don't think its worth the price, there are other cheaper primers out there that do the same thing.Great primer for oily skin when you still want some light
I love this primer. I have very oily skin so need a mattifying primer, but I still like my skin to look bright. This does exactly that and I particuarly like it for summertime. Most other primers for oily skin make my skin look dull, whereas this mattifies and leave a nice highlight.Not as good as then original
I have used the original benefit primer for years, such a great product. For some reason I did not find the pearl as effective. I found my skin became oiler sooner and it did not blur my poor as well. Still a good product but I will stick to the other.amazing
I love the benefit porefessional primer it's my ride or die. So I decided to try this one out as well. This one gives that glowy dewy look and also minimises my pores.
Good enough to even wear without makeup
Sits great under liquid foundation, with a slightly dewy finish. I have even worn it just on it's own and it still makes my skin look fab!Love this for everyday!
When I received this as a sample I wasn't sure about the 'pearl' factor, but can say now it is my favourite for everyday use! Not only is it a fab primer the pearl gives a great little glow. I have gone from not being a primer girl to now purchasing the full price product. A little goes a long way which is also a bonus.Love this for everyday!

I am not a fan of Benefit primers and this is no exception. This leaves a white cast and doesn't exactly seep into my skin and makes the foundation also not sit well. Maybe because I have combination skin or what but this just doesn't work for me.Great primer
I LOVE the original Porefessional so of course had to try this as well. It's really good - it has a similar pore-blurring effect as the original but with an added subtle dewy glow. I prefer a matte look generally so will ordinarily wear just the Porefessional, but I use this when I want a more dewy look and it wears really well under foundation and gives my skin added lustre without emphasising my...Read MoreGreat

I have dull, sallow yellowish skin that gets really oily and open pores around my nose and middle forehead, but is also annoyingly dry and flaky in patches. I never would have chosen this primer because it is called "pearl" and I am afraid of anything that is not ultra matte because of my oily nose and open pores. I tried this because I received a free sample and I could not believe how awesome it...Read MoreReally nice primer
I received this primer as a sample and was very impressed. It glides on so nicely and straight away makes my skin feel soft and ready for me to apply my foundation. I have noticed my foundation stays better and gives me a nice shine. I will be ordering the full size product.Really nice primer!
I have this and the standard version, and alternate depending on what my skin is doing. I use the pearl version when my skin is looking good, to give me a bit of extra glow.
I don't tend to wear a lot of makeup, so like to wear these to blur blur and smooth my skin with a little concealer. Works well to blur out my pores and just make my skin look more refined. Also works well under my mak...Read MoreLightweight and good coverage
Light weight and good coverage. Nice matte finish to place underneath my foundation. Do find that it can make my skin look a little glossy, great it you like that look I guess.Goodbye pores
I received this as a sample from AB and I have used the regular POREfessional primer but had not tried this Pearl version. Just like the original, this is great at minimizing pores. I have used it over my foundation too as a highlighter - just to see what effect it would have and it was subtle but cute. It did not cause a breakout. I'm not sure if I will purchase it in its full size, however, I d...Read MoreBenefit POREfessional pearl
I was curious to try the pearl version as have previously used porefessional primer and loved it. I have normal skin not dry not oily. Glides on smoothly but adds an extra glow. Foundation applies well over the top and stays put without becoming oily. Will definately be using this from now on.Amazing!!
I received a sample of this with my Adore order and I was amazed at the immediate results. I have large and noticeable pores both on my nose and chin and they were minimized instantly. Works just like the original but adds a dewy glow.Good
This is as good as the original porefessional it just gives a bit more of a glowy finish than the very matte porefessional. Really minimizes my pores and looks great.My favourite everyday primer
Such a lovely primer ! It's great for everyday use, perfect balance to brighting up your complexion !Benefit The POREfessional Pearl Primer
My always have to get! I will apply it before applying my make up so to ensure my skin is poreless. It really smoothens out my skin and cover up my pores. Absolutely love it!Nice texture but not my holy grail.
I have oily/combo skin so love a pore-blurring primer, but this one didn't turn out to be my holy grail. The texture is exactly as I like - silicone-y yet mattifying and pore-filling. But I found the slightly pink tint just highlighted the pink tones already existing in my skin, and the pearly/brightening effect was too subtle to have any impact beneath my tinted moisturiser or foundation.Great
This primer covers my pores and provides a great base for my makeup. It also gives my skin a nice glow.Glowy
This primer makes your skin look really glowy while minimizing the appearance of pores!!Clumpy
I found this product difficult to smooth across my face and it actually clumped when rubbed on. It did not reduce pore size and it did not leave a nice base for my makeup either.I like the original more
I thought I would love it when it came out but I prefered the original one. This one clogged my pores and doesn’t
Smooth out the pores as nicely as the original ones doest zone
best for oily skin I use this for my T-Zone and its fab, pore blurring so good around the noise area, and it great for a brighting effectBrilliant for the T Zone!
When I want a glowy base for makeup I use this over myT Zone and Mac strobe cream on my cheeks and forehead and my makeup stays all day and sits beautifully. My pores disappear. Love this as an alternative to the original.Cute shimmery version of the original
a cute, slightly shimmery version of the original. Still conceals my big pores, especially on my nose and creates a very slight highlightOn the fence!
The product does what it says, however it is quite sticky and very tacky. The sheen can sometimes be too iridescent under makeup, so it doesn't look natural. In my humble opinion, not worth the hype.So-so
I don't know if it made a hugely visible differenceGreat
Smells wonderful. Sweet like candy. Obviously not as mattifying as the other porefessional. So I feel like I see my pores a very tiny slightly bit more, but the pearl gives a nice glow to my somewhat dry skin. I love both and will continue to use both.Great
This is a great pore filler and a nice base for foundation! A must have !Pore filling without the drying effect
this is a great pore filler (and I actually prefer this to the original)!
I find that some pore fillers dry out the skin once applied and also find that this one keeps it hydrated and gives a slight luminous glow without making the face look super shinny !Works
Got this product as a sample. This product definitely minimizes/blurs the sight of pores underneath makeup and makeup goes on smoothly. However I don't think its a necessity unless you're really conscience about the size of your pores.Love Love Love
I have dry skin and sometimes have eczema patches on my face which can make my makeup go flaky. This primer disguised them completely and had my makeup looking fresh all day. Love it wish the tube was bigger.
Good product
Definitely does minimise the look of my pores under makeup, applies smoothly :)Undeniably great
I received a 5ml sample of this and was intrigued to try this as I have the original Porefessional. Just like the original, upon application,pores are gone! It leaves a matte finish so would be extra good for oily skin. This version has a slight pink tint which is unnoticeable upon application and it seems to provide a brighter canvas than the original. I will probably alternate between both depen...Read Moregood but not long lasting
This is a great product, however quite expensive for just a small tube. I only used it as a spot treatment just on my nose and cheeks, and it worked great for the first few hours of my make up then I could see my pores reappearing, I think my skin soaked up the product quite quickly. It would work great if you were having up close photos taken and wanted a quick fix to pores.Great
This is fantastic. Brightens and smooths my skin makes it really pretty. Would repurchase!Fun
Such a fun primer to use that gives me a lovely glowGreat
The texture of this primer is amazing it literally feels like velvet and i found a reduction in poor size.
the pearlescent glow really didn’t work on me at all if anything I felt it made me look overly Oily and because of that I found my foundation didnt sit well.
I think it would definitely be a good primer for some people but I wouldn’t buy againSuits me
I like this product as I tend to have shine which this minimises. It helps me to look healthy, the only reason I didn't give it a five is because of the slight chalkiness but perhaps this is to be expected...I haven't tried primers beforenot cruelty free
poor animals are getting tested on with this product and probably killing them aannndd I can still see my poresPore smoothing
I had been wanting to try the original POREfessional primer for a while, however I didn’t like how Matte it was so I never purchased it. As soon as I saw this product I knew I had to try it. This product is life changing. I only use it on my nose, chin and forehead (tzone) and you only need the smallest amount of product. It fills in and smooths your pores amazingly whilst still leaving the skin w...Read MoreBest primer I have tried so far
Absolutely love this product.
I have lots of acne scars on my face and have tried a few primers before but never really achieved a great result.
Benefit the POREfessional really does hide all my imperfections, will definitely stick to it.Small pores, healthy glow
I prefer the original product as it’s my favourite ever primer, but this is good too. As it’s pearly I prefer it to use it only in the spots you would highlight, and my pores are larger in the places you want matte such as nose and chin. The texture is so smooth makeup glides on amazing!Lit from within glow
I’ve been using Porefessional for years now so when I saw there was a new one in a pearl shade, I knew I had to try it. It covers up my pores just like the original porefessional but it leaves my skin with a glow from within! I absolutely love it and has been my go-to since I purchased it :)Clogs pores and doesn't illuminate
Overpriced, clogged my pores and didn't illuminate my skin whatsoever.
This is basically a slightly pink tinted version of the original Porefessional (which clogged my pores also).
Not impressed at all. Also Benefit is no longer Cruelty Free, so disappointed in this brand.
Far too over hyped and overpriced. There are much better quality, cruelty free and cheaper brands ou...Read More1 star less than real rating as benefit is not cruelty free :(
I don't really believe that this primer makes your foundation look dewy after application, it's a VERY subtle pearlescent sheen that does not dilute the matte of foundation at all. It is a great primer though.
If you want dewy foundation, use a normal primer with liquid illuminator instead. Heaps more effectiveGreat for dry skin
I have dry skin and sometimes have eczema patches on my face which can make my makeup go flaky. This primer disguised them completely and had my makeup looking fresh all day. Love it wish the tube was bigger.Glowing Review
I am a huge fan of the normal porefessional so thought I'd give this one a go. It is lovely. I got so many compliments about my skin glowing... even through my makeup and this was the only different product i used. It hid the pores around my cheeks amazingly and didn't sink in. Definitely worth a try if you love the originalGood
I love the normal porefessional primer and this one is just as good, but with an added glow! If you are going for a dewy look this is perfect for you, and you can even put it under your foundation just on the bits you put highlighter on normally for an extra highlight base. I really like this and I think it gives extra value for the money you spend on the normal porefessional.A good prime
I purchased the sample size as I love the original POREfessional so wanted to compare... I didn't notice much difference. Which isn't a bad thing because I love the POREfessional product.
It's great at reducing the pores and works as an amazing primer but I didn't experience much else as far as the pear effect goes.Disappointing as predicted
I really don’t know what the hype is about...FOR ME it’s a total disappointment.
Didn’t do anything it’s meant to.
After applying my face looked as usual, I do have good fair skin with a bit of redness in cheeks and I got this primer due to its high rating which I find surprising after using it and to give my skin a bit of a boost ...

I've been looking for a good primer for a while now so I purchased the mini version of this pearl primer. I have oily/combo skin. I loved it. Went on so easy and gave me a glowy finish. I'm just about to buy the full size :)New favourite
My foundation has never set as smooth, or looked as flawless as it has since using this primer.Great product for a healthy glow
I was a huge fan of the Porefessional Primer, so I had to give this new one a go. It still does a great job of filling in my pores, although doesn't hold up as well on my oily skin type. This is a good alternative for someone who is looking for a primer that gives hydration and glow.Love this primer
This is fantastic even to use when usin no make up to make your skin glow ! Received as a sample but will be going on my Wishlist !My new favourite
I was a lover of the porefessional however once I tried this one I can’t go back! It smooths my skin and gives a nice healthy looking glow. Keeps my foundation looking perfect all day.A good primer
I have super oily skin, and the original Porefessional primer is one of the only primers that helps me control oil. I really dislike a matte finish, so I was super excited to try this out!
The smell isn't as strong in this primer as it is in the original Porefessional, which is a huge win for me! It doesn't feel as heavy on my skin, either. It blurs pores exactly the same as the Pore...Read MoreLove!

Do you remember 2011, when the attempted remake of mean girls was released? Yeah, I want to forget that too, because remakes never are as good as the original. Well, That's what I thought, and I didn't purchase this one straight away for that very reason. The POREfessional isn't broke, so why fix it? BOY was I wrong.
