LORAC says
An oil-,
fragrance-, and paraben-free primer that helps minimize the appearance
of pores and fine lines.What it does: Infused with salicylic acid and
antioxidants of vitamins A, C, and E, this formula provides long-lasting
makeup wear while also helping skin appear healthy, youthful, and
radiant. The result is a silky-smooth, poreless-looking, matte finish.
What it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates - Phthalates
what a primer actually does?
Well i am telling you my personal experience of primers....If you have an oily skin that has open pores too and you want a flawless makeup finish and want to last that up to many hours without any major touch ups than you are definitely in need of a good primer....that is basic thing about primers.Their are other primers also available for dry/normal skin but the best results are obtained with the former type of skin i.e oily skin.
My experience
I am happy that i got this primer in deluxe size cuz in this way you don't invest much and can test a product easily.Comes in black hard paper packaging with a small tube of primer tube inside.The primer itself is colorless and has a jel like consistency,absorbs quickly on face and leaves skin smooth and prepared for makeup application.I feel it a bit heavy as compared to Benefit one .When comes to pore hiding part again it shrinks them for 2 and half hours maximum on me...also my T zone get oily after 2 and half hours but yes it does help my makeup to last longer and smooth too....If i have to compare Benefit and lorac then i must say that benefit is very very light and feels weightless on face and keeps my oil zone free up to 4 hours.Keep this thing in mind that benefit one is specially for oily/combo skin.You would not get good results if you have different skin type.This tiny miny tube is good for 8-10 times use.
Lorac one is more towards normal skin and for oily skin in winters.
It can cause some redness on face in sensitive skin person ,in my case it went away after 10-15 minutes.So i do recommend a patch test before using it.
Reasons to have
- paraben free face primer
- shrink pores up to 3 hours
- helps to stay makeup longer
Reasons to Leave
- Gel consistency can feel heavy on some skins
- not very long lasting in mattifying
- available only online
- pricey
Would I recommend?
It is good but some drug store primers are better than this.
