IT is Benefit's best selling product.

The quirky brand's Porefessional primer is beloved by women with oilier complexions for its mattifying and pore-reducing properties.

However, it's not the best fit for those of us with a drier, more mature skin who covet a dewy glow.

Enter, a new variant of the primer which aims to minimise pores, give your foundation solid staying power and create a brighter complexion.

I tried it under my regular foundation as part of my daily routine after a bad night's sleep and it left me looking a lot fresher.

Add to that, a colleague remarked that I looked "really well" and I'm sold.

Benefit Porefessional Primer will be available to buy on December 26 and is priced £26.
