As you can probably already tell by the title of this post, today is a review day (woo).
After receiving my first ever sample and for as long as I can remember after that, I have been using 'Benefits Porefessional' primer on my skin. I always thought this product was amazing, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth and holding my makeup a lot better than before I used any sort of primer.
However, when The Body Shop brought out their 'All - In - One Insta Blur Perfecter' I couldn't help but give it a try. To be honest, I wasn't expecting great things as I was beginning to dislike Benefits Porefessional as I felt it clogged my pores and I was really breaking out badly whenever I used it!
This is where I was pleasantly surprised, because, I completely fell in love with the InstaBlur after only a few uses! Porefessional left my skin feeling soft and smooth, but the Instablurr was something else! Although I was in love with this product straight away, I was still slightly dubious as to whether I was going to break out terribly and have blocked pores, but this product just kept pleasing!
I don't mean to sound cheesy but, since using this product, my skin has felt and looked the best it has been in such a long time! I am not saying this is a miracle working product because other factors such as a better diet, more water and holidays abroad will have also helped, but this has definitely been a better product, personally, for my skin than Benefits Porefessional!
(I wanted to share a completely unedited photo of myself wearing the InstaBlur under my makeup with you, just to give an idea of how well make up sits on top of it! Please excuse my scruffy brows however)
Don't get me wrong though, Porefessional was definitely my first love and I still think it is a fantastic product which I would use again, but at the moment, whilst I am still prone to breakouts, The Body Shop's InstaBlur is the only one for me!
Thank you for reading, come back soon ;)
