Annabelle CC Colour Control Instant Perfecting Base in Natural Finish: Swatches and review

PURCHASED

Annabelle CC Colour Control Instant Perfecting Base in Natural Finish

 Retails for $17.99CAN for 1fl oz of product at Shopper Drug Mart. I wanted to see if this would work as a primer over other higher end silicon based primers.

Back of tube.

Product & Colour
This is a silicone heavy primer rather then a colour corrector. This however is an excellent primer. It really does blur out everything on the skin and fill/evens out any texture. I was shocked at how porcelain smooth my skin looked.

The shade is a neutral beige but the colour blend out to nothing. If I can use, it is that sheer! so any colour correcting is somewhat null and void for this product.

Wear

All day! Both on it's own and as a primer.

Packaging

Simple plastic pump tube.

Compare

This has the same longevity as Smashbox Photofinish Smashbox Photo Finish Primer and the lighter version, but this one fill in the texture of your skin more like Benefit's POREfessional and DR. BRANDT pores no more® pore refiner. If you really wanting a perfect canvas then I still recommend DR. BRANDT pore refiner over all these primers but this is CC Instant Perfecting Base as primer kind of blows most high end primers out of the water.

Look thick.

Spread out.

Verdict

A primer that doesn't break the budget and get the job done. I approve!
