Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser Review

One of my skin dilemmas is having large pores on the area around my nose. Ewan ko ba, pwede namang magka large pores sa pwet, bakit sa pes pa?? Baket?? 

Anyway! I came across a blog post of mylucidintervals.com, one of my favorite Pinay bloggers, and from there I learned about Maybelline's new product: Baby Skin Pore Eraser


Apparently, Maybelline Japan launched this product a couple of months ago. Weird because it's always the US that launches new products first. Does that mean Asian women have bigger pores? Chozz

It comes with this adorable packaging.
Anything green and pink combination for me is cuteness to the infinity level! It's a slim, squizzable tube too so it won't consume much space in your makeup bag. 


What it claims: 



It can be used as a primer too. If you're not a liquid foundation + powder gal or you simply don't put that much gunk on your face but worried about your pores, this product is for you. If you're a gal who's into full coverage (liquid founda and finishing powder), well yes, it's also perfect for you coz it creates a smooth canvass for your foundation routine. With this product on as a primer, blending becomes a much easier job. 

I can't get enough how cute the packaging is! This tube has 22 ml of velvety, translucent gel that dries into somewhat silky and mattified texture. A little goes along way so a tube will definitely last you for months. 


Here's the swatch: 


Just note that this primer / pore eraser has silica on it. Some people are allergic to silica and it causes minor skin irritation to them. Silica by the way is one of the key ingredients of primers, liquid foundations and the like. It's like a serum that makes the skin  matte and velvety smooth. 

So if you don't want to splurge on Benefit's Porefessional which costs around P1,600,

you can get Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser at Maybelline counters / Watson's at Php299 only!
