Guerlain have just launched two new products; the Guerlain L’Essentiel Pore Minimizer Shine Control Primer, as well as the Guerlain L’Essentiel Foundation. The primer is a makeup primer with 97% naturally-derived ingredients that mattifies and perfects the complexion and makes the foundation last longer. Keep on reading to find out all about the new Guerlain L’Essentiel Pore Minimizer Shine Control Primer launch.

Guerlain L’Essentiel Pore Minimizer Shine Control Primer
The Guerlain L’Essentiel Pore Minimizer Shine Control Primer has a light, fresh texture that forms a protective barrier between skin and makeup to create an ideal canvas for a flawless, longer-lasting make-up look. With a formula enriched with avocado extract, pores are visibly smoothed, while the complexion remains matte and even all day long.
Both immediately and over time, the appearance of pores are said to be diminished with the skin’s texture being refined. It also claims to go beyond controlling excess shine, to balance the skin, reinforce the skin’s barrier and protect against pollution.
With a unique and ‘disruptive’ bottle, created by the designer Mathieu Lehanneur, which is said to be inspired by the subtle art of balance. The Pore Minimizer Shine-Control Primer bottle has been designed to be easily recycled.

Then press the dropper again to deposit two drops onto the fingertips. Rub the formula between your fingertips to warm it up, and then apply to your face, massaging lightly starting at the centre of the face, working outwards.
