Perfect Blur

Lets talk bases!

As someone who suffers from enlarged pores and an uneven skin tone I do enjoy a good perfecting base, however they can feel heavy and just plain uncomfortable. 

In a spur of the moment shopping trip recently I picked up the Garnier Perfect Blur base perfecter which to be honest I hadn't heard a lot about, but it was on sale and I thought I would give it a go.

I comes in a simple pale pink tube, nothing flashy about this packaging but nothing offensive either. It comes in the 22.0ml size which seems about average for a priming product

This product claims to be a skin tone evening, light reflecting, smoothing a blurring and I would have to agree. This has been marketed to a mature clientele but I have had no issue on my young oily skin. 

You apply a small amount of the product onto your skin after applying your daily skin care routine, I tend to focus on the centre of my face as that is where I have the most unevenness. This product fills in pours and noticeably reduces the size once make up is applied.  I do not think this product necessarily fills in fine lines but I do think they look less serve.  

When this product is applied alone I do think it helps reflect the light and create a healthy finish to the skin but after foundation application I do not notice a large difference, something I do notice is that my foundation applies so smoothly over the top that my skin looks much more airbrushed. 

To me this product is very similar to the Loreal Base Magique but perhaps a little thinner and slightly smoother feeling on the skin. It can also be compared to the Benefit Porefessional primer which I am a huge fan of, and while I think they are very similar I do love the Porefessional for my skin issues. 

I would recommend this product over the previous two mentioned to a more mature skin type as it is lighter and worn on its own creates a very nice finish and glow.  

I am very much enjoying using this product and given that it is only $16.99 full price it may be something I purchase in the future to avoid paying the $40+ for equivalents.
