Benefit Operation Pore Proof

Today is all about the 5 piece Benefit Operation Pore Proof kit, a kit where ever product in it will attack the shine on your face, minimise pores, diffuse fine lines and wrinkles and keep your makeup from sliding off your face.

One of the products hasn’t even been launched yet!

Apart from this kit (which I bought from QVCUK) this as yet mystery product isn’t available anywhere else until next year.

If you haven’t heard about Benefit, then where have you been?!

This brand has been around since 1976 and 20 years in the UK.

Their products are instant beauty solutions, for the woman that doesn’t want to mess around and wants instant results.

That’s where Benefit comes in!

The Benefit Operation Pore Proof kit includes 5 miniature products, a brush, a mirror and a guide for hints and tips on how to use the products to get the best results.

What’s great is that all of the products come out of the box, so fabulous if you want to take them on holiday.

I’m not big on packaging, it’s usually one of the first things that I get rid of straight away but the Benefit packaging is something else!

Made to enhance their products, Benefit make gift giving easy and it’s easy to spot a Benefit product just by the box it’s in!

Benefit also don’t let you fend for yourself, Tips and Tricks are always supplied with their kits.

Let’s Go Through Them Individually

• Agent Zero Shine – This is the Number 1 best -selling translucent powder on the UK High Street. It suits all skin tones, minimises pores and fine lines but leaves no powdery residue.
• Porefessional Primer – This is the Number 1 bestselling primer on the UK High Street. A Makeup Artist’s secret, you can use it under your makeup to keep it in place or over your makeup during the day. It soaks up excess oil and minimises pores on any skin tone without a heavy finish. It looks tinted in my photograph but it goes onto your skin clear.
• Porefessional License To Blot – Blotting papers are a thing of the past when you have this solid version of the liquid Porefessional! This inventive, light weight, silicon based product takes away shine and can be used even if you don’t wear makeup.Use alone to soak up any excess oil like a magnet. It’s a great alternative to powder that can even be used under the eyes. The good thing is, if you use this product over your makeup, it won’t take your makeup off.
• Shy Beam – You can’t get this product anywhere else, apart from this kit! It isn’t due for release until next year. So we’re getting an exclusive tester! This is a matt highlighter, which for anybody getting older (like me) there is no glitter or shimmer to be had! By highlighting the high points of your face, like the bridge of your nose, under the eye brows and cheekbones the Shy Beam will add structure and definition without the shine.
• Dr Feelgood – This balm has been around for 20 years plus! Different to Porefessional this gives you a silky, soft complexion. Antibacterial because of the tea tree and vitamin C, this balm is particularly good for problem skin and can be used under or over makeup to soak up excess oil in problem areas.

So What Do I Think Of Kit?

• If you have open pores or shine to your skin, this kit is brilliant
• If you have never tried any of the Benefit products in this kit, then this is the kit for you. Miniature sizes, means you don’t have to pay out for the full sizes to test out the products.
• This kit is brilliant if you are going on holiday; just take the box with you if you want the mirror and tips and tricks booklet.
• If you just want to take the products with you, then they are all able to be popped out of the box easily.
• The tips and tricks booklet enables you to become your own makeup artist at home with visual pictures, if you still have questions then the Benefit team including Lisa Potter – Dixon are always on hand to help (I use Twitter)
• Apart from the Shy Beam everything in this kit is translucent but all the products work for every skin tone.

Do you want to banish the oil, banish the shine and minimise the look of pores, fine lines and wrinkles?
