Most mattifying primer I've ever tried!

This primer works wonderful to mattify my skin especially since I'm in the oily skin club. As soon as I put this on, I can feel the moisture sucking out of my skin so definitely not a good primer for people with dry skin at all. I applied this on my sister and she noticed the same thing that you can actually feel your skin mattifying with this on. No joke. I don't however like that this primer dri...read morees super fast so it's hard to spread this on my face and I really don't notice this to fill in pores or erase fine lines. I feel like it's not silky enough and when I layer foundation on top of this, my foundation clings to every dry patch and looks super blotchy. Love this for hot humid days since it keeps oil at bay but wouldn't recommend for an everyday primer.

not repurchasing

This is a review for the Becca Ever-Matte Poreless primer. The first time I tried a store sample over just sunscreen (nothing on top), it seemed to work, but I was hesitant to buy the full-size version because of the mixed reviews. I wasn't sure if it would play nice with foundation, so I bought the smaller tube instead. The consistency reminds of the Neutrogena Pore-Refining Mattifier that was...read more discontinued. As I recall, that mattifier pilled if you tried to put anything on top of it. If you follow the directions on the Becca box and dab the primer on, it doesn't pill. But it doesn't mattify either. The Becca primer is too much of a process to apply, and it doesn't even work for me.

Not sure if same product

I have used the Becca Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector for the last few days and am not sure if I totally love it. I can tell that it helps keep my makeup on longer but when I initially put it on, it makes my skin feel not really sticky but not able to smooth over it. Then I put my concealer on, then foundation and it makes my face look a little too matte/white. I like the idea of keeping ...read moremy makeup on but this sorta makes me look un-natural when I first apply and then have to sort of mess with my face to make it look less weird. I don't know, any tips on how to use this stuff?

Works like magic!

This primer fills in fine lines and pores. Absorbs oil and helps your makeup stay on a lot longer. I tend to look very tired as the day goes on every time I use this product I look good all day. Without a doubt this product is a 10.

This ROCKS!!!!!

Becca's Mattifying Primer is AMAZING! I have very oily skin and my T-zone tends to glow by noon...so annoying. This primer really creates a matte finish that lasts. I use this daily and I am very satisfied with the results.
