Around the same time, Essence came out with a new "Oil Control Make-Up Base" which claims to be "Pore Refining and Long lasting" as well. I was a little hesitant to try it because, although I love Essence, I was never really sure about using their face products. I decided to go ahead and get it anyway since it was only $5.75.
The consistency for both are very similar, both a white gel texture.
I applied a thin layer of the primer on top of my moisturizer, It absorbs pretty quick and doesn't give a greasy or sticky feeling.
I found that it did help refine the appearance of pores once I put my foundation on.
I was always quite impressed because, being an oily skin girl, after a few hours where my skin would usually be oily, My foundation actually looked as good as it did when I first applied it.
After using this for a couple of weeks, I haven't broken out or anything from it which is always a good sign.
I highly recommend trying this product if you wanted something similar (If not more effective...shhh) Then the Nars Primer, considering it's basically 1/10th of the price here in Australia.
I definitely give it my 2 thumbs up!
