Our take on the Benefit Cosmetics POREfessional Foundation & Beautyblender 2pc Set - 40N Iconic

This is a two-piece set pairing Benefit's POREfessional foundation in shade 40N Iconic with a Beautyblender sponge. The foundation is a medium-coverage, buildable matte formula aimed at blurring pores and smoothing texture, with niacinamide, glycerin and rose hip extract for hydration. It is waterproof, non-comedogenic and claims color that stays true all day. The set is a convenient way to get the sponge applicator the formula is designed for.

What reviewers say

Owners of the POREfessional foundation generally praise the smoothing, pore-blurring look and the long wear, and the Beautyblender is widely liked for an even, streak-free application. Criticism tends to focus on the matte finish feeling tight on dry skin and on the sponge requiring careful cleaning.

Pros
  • Blurs pores and smooths texture
  • Stays put all day without fading
  • Buildable coverage that still looks like skin
  • Sponge gives an even, seamless finish
Cons
  • Can cling to dry patches
  • Matte look is too flat for some

Questions and answers

Is this foundation good for oily skin?
Yes. It has a matte, blurring finish and is waterproof and long-wearing, which suits combination to oily skin. Very dry skin may find it tight without a rich moisturizer underneath.
How much coverage does it give?
It is medium coverage and buildable, so one layer evens out tone and extra layers cover more. It is not a full-coverage formula.
What is in the box?
You get one 30 mL POREfessional foundation in 40N Iconic and one Beautyblender sponge. No primer or other extras are included.
How should I apply it with the sponge?
Dampen the Beautyblender, squeeze out excess water, then bounce the foundation over the face for a smooth, blurred finish. Build in thin layers where you want more coverage.
Is it non-comedogenic?
Yes, it is labeled non-comedogenic and formulated not to clog pores. It also contains niacinamide, glycerin and rose hip extract.
Is 40N Iconic right for my skin tone?
40N Iconic is a medium shade with a neutral undertone. Check a swatch against your jawline in daylight, since the matte finish can look slightly different once set.
