Ive only just discovered how good The Body shop make-up is, there was a 3 for 2 going on at the time which made me happy, I love primers, and I new I must definitely give this one ago, as yet again I see this everywhere around the blogging community lol.
Retails Description - 12h shine control, Reduces appearance on pores, blemish hiding, complexion Unifying, and makeup extending. Your all thinking does it really do all of them? It actually does apart from the redness and blemishes as i don't have them, 12hour shine control doesn't actually work for 12hours but I've found I haven't needed to powder as much which is a plus for me.
I use this under my foundation, I'm have combination skin so I look for anything thats going to keep some of the shine away and to hide my hideous large pores, the texture is quite solicone-y but that doesn't bother me once massaged over the skin it had a light powdery effect and it soaks into the skin nicely. I love how soft it made my skin. Ive used this for about a month and I've got plenty left, a little goes a long way.
Overall it made my foundation glide on and it spreaded around quickly so it didn't take me long to blend it all in, I love how it brightened up my complexion and the fact it minimised my pores so they weren't as noticeable as normal. I noticed when I did a 8 hour day at work by night time my makeup looked pretty decent still, woo! This is defeintly a thumbs up for me.
Whats your favourite product from The Body Shop?
I have heard this is really good! I really like my cheapo primer so I think I'll stay with that!

This sounds perfect. I really struggle with finding a good primer and so tend to stick it out until it runs out then find a different brand, so this is the next one on my list!

I don't know why but I'm always scared from such type of products. I always assume they're full of nasty ingredients which are going to clog my pores :/

I have this but I actually found it makes my foundation cling to it and look patchy :( weird how products work differently on different skin! :)
