As you will have all seen, last months edition of Glamour included free Benefit samples. I intended on posting a review when I first received & used them, although I thought I would try them out fully, as I am using other products in conjunction.
Firstly, I think these products have fabulous packaging! Definitely siding with Soap & Glory's!
the POREfessional
This product is my favourite out of the two, I will tell you why..
The formulation is first quite liquidy & wet. Once you begin to work with it into your skin, you see the product change consistency into a soft, delicate balm, which will smooth over pores & give you an even finish to your skin. I am always safe in the knowledge after applying this, that my skin will look as flawless as possible, giving me confidence throughout the day & night, as it is so longlasting.
I could definitely repurchase this, as I do find it works. My skin looks noticeably different from applying this, then foundation, to just applying foundation. The colour of the product is a light skin tone colour, which will blend into any skin tone, of you wished to wear this alone.
You only need to apply a small amount of this, to get great results. I apply this to my nose & what ever product is left over, I will evenly distribute this across my cheeks.
You can purchase the POREfessional here for £23.50 (link).
"that gal"
This one I have to say, is probably my least favourite. Purely on the basis that I don't notice any difference, I've just applied an extra layer of product to my face, that I could have done without.
I'm unsure if I am applying this wrong, or I just don't appreciate what it has to offer, although I believe I could probably benefit from using this with just a BB cream, so I can see the brightening effects this product has to offer.
As a primer, I found it to work well with the rest of my face make up, although I don't think I will be rushing out to purchase this, in comparison to the POREfessional balm.
The consistency of this is quite liquidy & stays this way until blended in.
I will keep trying this & use up the sample. I always appreciate trying new products & testing whether they are a good match for my skin or not. Turned out that this particular product just wasn't for me.
You can purchase "that gal" here for £21.50 (link).
I hope you enjoyed this little belated post.
Have you tried the POREfessional or "that gal"?
Let me know your thoughts!
Thank you!

I got both samples as well and totally agree with you. I found porefessional to work so well, but that gal just dissapointed me (plus, when I peeled to deal off of that gal, it exploded over my bed!) xo
ReplyDeleteI would love to repurchase the porefessional, just the price is steering me away to trying other primers.
DeleteThat Gal just wasn't for me at all. Nice to try a sample for £2 than £21.50! I wouldn't have been happy about it exploding!
