Product details

Smashbox Pore Vanishing Primer is a lightweight, oil-free face primer that blurs pores, controls shine and helps makeup stay in place with a matte finish.

This travel-size primer (0.34 fl oz) creates a smooth, velvety base whether you wear it alone for a natural look or layer it under foundation to extend wear. Formulated without oils and with no visible white cast, it minimizes the appearance of pores and sets makeup for up to 12 hours while delivering a soft-focus, mattified surface. The formula includes Vitamin E to help nourish skin and is vegan and cruelty-free.

How does this primer minimize the look of pores?

The texture fills and blurs unevenness to create a refined, smoother-looking surface. Micro-filling ingredients diffuse light and reduce the appearance of open pores without leaving residue.

  • Velvety, lightweight base that smooths skin texture.
  • Micro-blurring particles soften pore visibility.
  • Non-comedogenic, so it blurs without clogging pores.

Will it keep my skin shine-free throughout the day?

Yes — the oil-free formulation mattifies skin and helps control excess oil for extended periods. It reduces surface shine and helps foundation stay put longer for a more even complexion.

  • Mattifying finish that reduces midday shine.
  • Helps foundation adhere to the skin for up to 12 hours.
  • No white cast, so it works across a range of skin tones.

Can I use this under makeup or wear it alone?

This primer is designed for both uses: a smooth, makeup-free appearance or a base to improve foundation performance. Its lightweight feel means it layers easily without pilling or feeling heavy on the skin.

  • Wears well alone for a natural, softened finish.
  • Applies smoothly under liquid, powder, or cream foundations.
  • Travel-size packaging for touch-ups or trial use.

Is this suitable for sensitive or vegan skin routines?

The formula is oil-free, non-greasy, and formulated to be gentle on skin while delivering a mattified look. It’s vegan and cruelty-free, and includes Vitamin E to support skin comfort.

  • Vegan and cruelty-free formulation.
  • Infused with Vitamin E to soothe and nourish skin surface.
  • Designed to avoid a visible white cast, suitable for many skin tones.

Who is this for: Smashbox Pore Vanishing Primer in the travel-size 0.34 fl oz is ideal for anyone wanting a lightweight mattifying step to refine texture and extend makeup wear—especially those with combination to oily skin, people who prefer a natural blurred look without heavy products, and travelers who need a compact, effective primer. It’s also a good pick for first-time primer users who want to test a product that is vegan and cruelty-free.

How to use: Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, moisturized skin focusing on the T-zone and areas with visible pores. Blend with fingertips and allow a few seconds to set before applying foundation or powder.
