Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer First Impression


Hello,my name is Anita and you are reading AniTales' first post of the blog. In this post, I will be reviewing and write my first impression of the Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer. I have been waiting for this product to come about almost a month, but it is finally came, so let's dig it up!
( PS : Pictures are taken by myself, on natural light )


Innisfree is a korean makeup and skincare brand, that claims using natural ingredients. The image that this brand want to show, is the pure innocent girl from Jeju island, looking all naturale~. For your information, this is my first ever Innisfree product, since the brand doesn't launch in Indonesia. So, don't disappoint me, Innisfree~!



The primer claims to be a blurring primer that covers pores and fine lines for a smooth skin texture. On the back of the box ( which I can't read and translate the korean, but fortunately there's English words! Ha! ) there's the direction of the primer usage.


[Directions] Release an appropriate amount and spread thinly over areas with visible pores after skincare and gently pat to finish.
*Apply little at a time and pat in order to prevent migrating or lumping. 
Oh! And this primer is 25 mL, an average size. Next, let's take a look what kind of miracle does this primer offer.

Left- Right : The Subtance, Try to blend, Blended 
The first thing that I notice from this baby is that the prier has a beige color , but as you can see from the picture above, it doesn't change my skin color at all. The texture of the primer is more like balm, not liquidy at all, but also definitely not hard. It reminds me with The Body Shop Insta Blur and L'oreal True Match Blur primer, but softer and not crumbled. As the direction says, you need to spread it thinly so it doesn't make lumps, moreover when you have to much product in one area, it's hard to blend and it feels like the death cells that you got while exfoliating your skin.  (lol explaination~)

My skin after skincare ( Left and right cheeks XD)
For my skin story, I have a combination skin, where my T-zone area (especially the nose) is oily and the rest are normal. My skin is not that good and clear (I think I got breakout from my last period). I have some quite noticeable pores. Throughout the day, my nose become super oily.


Left : Before Primer, Right : After Primer
The primer blurs my pores quite nicely, it doesn't disappear, it simply make my skin smoother ( as I felt while touching my skin). Additionally. it has powdery smooth finish, matte but not flat.

Left : After Primer, Right : Primer + Laneige BB Cushion
 After I applied BB Cushion ( mine is Laneige BB Cushion in Sand Beige ) my pores are even less noticeable. The texture of Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer doesn't give any bad cracks with my BB Cushion, which is a plus.


However, if you look at my face on a distance (from 5 cm and so on), my face looks smooth and perfectly fine, which I think that's how people look onto your face. Lastly, let's wrap this up.

Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer (25 mL)
Price : IDR 125.500,- 
( 19% off from IDR156.800 @ id.althea.kr

Pros : 
- Texture is balm like, not crumbling
- Smells minty, but very subtle
- Packing is practical (tube)
- It doesn't make my BB Cushion cracks/looking weird
- Gives nice powdery smooth finish

Cons : 
- The power of covering pores is not that much
- It is hard to get in Indonesia

Q&A :

Do I like this primer ? 
Yes! I like how it is not crumbling unlike my TBS Insta Blur, moreover it has the same result but better.

Will I buy this product again ?
It depends on the situation, If I could then I would, since It's hard to get in Indonesia, especially offline. Online ? Yes, if I found good online store with a good service. Althea is a good website, the prices are wallet-wise ^^

Love, Anita
