I used to use primers well, but at some point I felt stuffy and stopped using them. However, when I tried the Make Up For Ever primer this time, I definitely felt that using the primer made my skin texture smoother and the makeup lasted longer compared to when I didn't use it. -Texture/Application: First of all, the texture is slightly sticky, but the application is good and it spreads well. Sometimes the oil and water separate and the layers divide, but when you shake it, it mixes back together well and you can just use it. -Effects: The effects may vary from person to person, but personally, as I mentioned above, using the primer makes my pores and uneven texture look more smooth, and the oil control helps the makeup last longer. Especially the Pore Minimizer contains mineral clay powder, so it feels like it controls oil better than other types of step 1 primers. The biggest advantage of the Make Up For Ever primer seems to be that it's a customized primer for different concerns. Since large pores and uneven skin texture were my main concerns, the Pore Minimizer worked well for me, and I used it satisfactorily. I think I'll use it even better as we approach the summer, and I plan to repurchase it after finishing this one.

The price is a bit disappointing. And for people with really large pores, there is a feeling that the primer gets stuck in the pores.

I apply a thin layer on my nose and T-zone area before using foundation as a primer.

The price seems a bit high compared to its functions.. While it's good for makeup longevity, I'm not sure about its pore and texture blurring effects.
