The POREfessional Foundation: Smoothing Blur Foundation
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional Foundation delivers a skin-perfecting, blurred finish that looks filtered without heavy coverage. MakeupByCheryl calls it a step under Estée Lauder, more suitable for everyday wear, while Abbey Yung notes it's buildable to medium/full with a natural matte finish that wears well and looks glowier by day's end. Mandy Davis MUA confirms it's bulletproof for photo shoots, though she found shade 10 N a little light.
