Garnier Perfect Blur 5 Sec Smoothing Base Perfector Review

Hello everyone,

Today, I will be reviewing something that is new to me as a concept.  I had never tried primers for the face and this Garnier Perfect Blur intrigued me enough to pick up for a trial.  Not only was this something I did not have in my stash, but also this was on discount for that day as a launching offer in the Coles store. Read on to know how it fared for me.

My Experience with Garnier Perfect Blur 5 Sec Smoothing Base Perfector:

The packaging is no doubt very attractive with the girly bling pink and silver details. The outer paper carton has a lot of information regarding the product including the ingredients and innovation details. The actual tube is a pretty small one with 22 ml of the product and iridescent pearl finish body. The body is baby pink with a white cap which protects the nozzle. The nozzle dispenses the right amount of the product and makes the control on the product easier.

The consistency of the primer is like mousse. There is no smell to the product which is a huge pro for me. I quite liked that it did not make the claim of skipping the moisturizer part of the skin care routine. It is mentioned to apply this after the day cream; this will ensure that the primer takes away unwanted shine from the face thus creating a perfect base with or without makeup on top.

Thankfully, I do not have visible pores on my face, but there are smile lines around my lips. Also, I have a habit of raising my brows which has given me a few lines on the forehead. I was aiming to fix them with skin care but who doesn’t like a bit of cheating for the makeup-days?

On application, the primer feels a bit slippery, but the initial feel leaves once the primer settles. There is no whitish cast on the face and the makeup definitely glides on better with this primer beneath. Also, the staying power increases and the makeup looks fresh for longer period of time.

The quantity provided is pretty less but only a tiny amount is required each time, thus a single tube will last for a long time, but as I do not have access to this particular product in India, I am saving this for special occasions. I have not used any other primer, so I will not be able to compare, but as far as the effectiveness of this primer is concerned, I am impressed.
