Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Mattifying Face Primer Review
The Maybelline Fit Me Matte and Poreless Primer is a great addition to the Fit Me line. I’m surprised at how this primer blurs and smoothes the skin.
Drugstore brands have been mirroring high end products a lot within the past year and this product feels high end.
I’m a fan of primers that smooth and blur the skin for days without makeup as well. I wore this primer with no makeup for an entire day (8+ hours), and my skin kept that “slightly filtered” look all day. It’s THAT good.
I found that applying the primer with your fingers works best. Brushes and sponges seem to absorb the product instead of spreading it.
As a combination skin gal, I tend to get shiny in the t-zone after about 7 hours. The Maybelline Matte and Poreless keeps me shine free for way longer than that even if I have on foundation.
A Matte Makeup Primer with SPF!
Did I mention the primer has SPF 20?! It’s awesome to find a product that is matte AND has SPF. I hope this is the future of makeup because it is much needed!
*Keep in mind the recommendation for sunscreen is at least SPF 30.
Truly, all skin types will like this primer. If you have very very dry skin but still want the blurring and smoothing effect of the product, prep with a hydrating skincare routine first.
Overall this product does a great job at keeping my skin smooth and matte all day. I really think Maybelline out did themselves this time.
Is Maybelline Matte and Poreless Primer good for Oily skin?
Yes. The Maybelline Matte and Poreless Primer is great for oily skin. I wear the primer for 7+ hours with and without foundation with any extra shine.
