I've been using the black up perfect matifying primer for over a year now. I fell in love with it because of how light it felt on my skin and also because of the fact that it didn't break me out. This primer didn't come cheap. I just repurchased it for N8,300 and it is currently the most expensive face product I own.
Like I've mentioned in previous posts I have very oily skin and I break out within two days of using anything my face doesn't like. So I'm very very picky when it comes to the stuff that I put on my face.
I believe that of all the foundation primers I've tried this has done the best job. It holds up pretty well under any type of foundation and its a clear gel which simply adds to its appeal to me. I personally do not like foundation primers that are white or have any kind colour to them because with most products like that blending is usually problem.
Black up changed the packaging of this primer mid last year and according to them the formula was improved as well. The third picture is a side by side comparison of the old and new bottle. The only difference I've noticed so far is in the consistency. The old primer was slightly thicker than this one. I recently had to repurchase because I ran out of the one I bought march last year (yes, It lasted me a whole year). I bought the new one from the Black up stand in Montaigne place, the palms shopping mall, lekki.

ReplyDeleteI tried out the Black Up mattifying primer it didn't work for me. Prefer the rebalancing mattifying fluid topped with Boots shine free primer =matte face all day no retouch. Lol at white primers!!
ReplyDeletewill definitely look it into the rebalancing mattifying fluid!
DeleteHi! I discovered you from a post on BN and I love your youtube videos. I have got really oily skin which I hate. Mos days, because of my oily skin, I do without make up and just use normal white talcum powder on my face.
ReplyDeleteHowever, reading that you also have oily sensitive skin and still look so perfect with your makeup has piqued my interest. Please, how does one use a mattifying primer? Do you use it after your moisturizing before your foundation or in place of a moisturizer?
hello dear,
DeleteI apply the primer after applying my moisturiser. Moisturising for me is a must, just make sure that the moisturiser is oil free.
Oh ok. Thanks for replying!
DeleteWhat type of moisturizers do you use for your face since you have an oily face?
