HOLOGRAM Pore Minimizing Skin Primer
Hologram Pore Minimizing Skin Primer
A primer that is closer to a facial oil than a silicone filler — though it has silicone too, which is what blurs the pores.
The unusual part is what sits underneath: tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, an oil-soluble and notably stable form of vitamin C, alongside argan, evening primrose and squalane, with vitamins A and E. So the step that normally only sits on the skin for appearance is doing some antioxidant work while it is there.
The aromatic oils — patchouli, sandalwood, geranium, lavender, ylang ylang, clove and lemongrass — give it its scent.
Who it suits
Visible pores and uneven texture under makeup. Also wearable alone on days without makeup, for the blurring effect and the oils.
Who should be careful
This is a fragrant formula, rich in essential oils and containing geraniol, eugenol and linalool. If essential oils irritate your skin, this is not the product to start with — try SKIN DRINK instead, which has nothing in it but squalane.
How to use
A small amount over moisturiser and sunscreen, pressed rather than rubbed, before makeup.
Pairs well with
- NIACINAMIDE POWER SERUM — for pores themselves rather than their appearance. This primer blurs; that serum treats.
- CLEAN 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF50 — sunscreen first, primer over it.
