Review (5/5): A vegan primer that does what it says
I ordered this primer because I wanted something to help minimize my pores, and also because this one is vegan. I ordered the 100ml bottle, which turned out to be a pretty decent size. This makeup primer is suppose to help with oil control and for minimizing pores. I did notice right away after I let the spray dry that my pores were in fact minimized. After applying my BB cream and using my bronzer, I could tell a difference in my pores for sure as opposed to not using a primer. I was quite pleased. After wearing it all day, in the heat and indoors, my face is not oily, and there is very little shine. That's pretty awesome for me because I do tend to have a problem with my skin getting oily after awhile and needing to use a face powder for it. There is a very faint, natural like fragrance to this spray. It is water-based. One part of the description on the bottle says, "This silicone-free formula controls excess oil-production and fights makeup- melting shine. Infused with willow bark to fight breakouts and minimize the appearance of pores." This product is recommended for combination to oily skin types. It also says that its formulated for sensitive skin. Oil free. Vegan. Paraben- free. Cruelty-free.
I definitely have combination skin and I feel that this product has lived up to what it claims to do. I love that it has willow bark in it. Im sure that's the faint natural scent I detected.
One thing I noticed is that when I pump the top for a spray, the sides of the bottle tends to decompress just a bit. That may be because the bottle itself is made from a kind of thinner plastic. It doesn't affect the ability to use the product or the product itself in anyway. I just figured that it's still something worth mentioning. I took a photo to show size and the slight decompression. I do plan on trying other N3 products
