Waste of money, buyer beware
I have been a loyal Porefessional primer user for over five years and I have many of Benefit's other products. I purchased Porefessional Lite in the regular and mini sizes. It is a waste of money. It squeezes out in a VERY tiny stream and just rolls off my finger onto the floor. When I squeeze it onto a flat surface I have to smush it first and then it pills and falls off when I apply it on my face. When I phoned customer service they acknowledged that this product has this issue. No offer was given to replace the product or to make amends.

Disappointed - loved the old Hydrate formula
These new formulations are so disappointing. I LOVED the old Hydrate formula - it blurred pores and was water-based so worked with my foundation. Now all the new primers are silicone-based other than this one and this doesn't come close to the old Hydrate. The texture is thick and weird and does not blur pores at all.

Great for large pores
My pores are huge, my skin is oily, and no primer helps... except for the POREfessional Lite Primer! I love wearing it with or without foundation on top.

It's just okay
It's just okay, doesn't feel as heavy as the original but not worth it for the price point. I'm not sure if the one I got was defective but it came out dry

blurs pores ?!
I don’t understand how it works. It’s like using a smudge tool on a photo. It minimizes how much the pores stand out and the texture is so velvety.
