[Innisfree][Review] No Sebum Blur Powder & Primer

Finally my package came on Friday! And I was so excited to try these new babies from Innisfree! These products are not available yet in Singapore... In Korea itself, it is just launched.


Innisfree No Sebum Blur Powder

Left: No sebum BLUR powder | Right: No sebum MINERAL powder

It costs about SGD10 for 5 gram of product; slightly more expensive than its mineral powder version. It has the same minty smell as mineral powder. What is the difference? It is supposed to 'blur' your imperfection.

*forgive my camera and bad lighting*
It is cream colour. For me who has yellowish skin, I feel safer when I put this on my face for some reason. Although I love love love love love No Sebum Mineral Powder, I think I might start to move on to her little sister instead. As what I said earlier on my review for No Sebum Mineral line, the white translucent powder gives a bit tad of 'white powder effect' although it would be gone in seconds; but with this, I did not feel that at all. I still don't mind wearing mineral powder though.

It performs the same as No Sebum Mineral Powder in my opinion. It keeps my face matte and less oily. I have nothing much to say about the supposedly 'blurring' effect. I think what they mean by 'blur' is because this powder has that cream skin colour, it may work like a concealer to hide dark spots or redness? Too bad it does not really work for me LOL!

  • Similar to its sister: nice minty smell and great oil control
  • Safer choice for those whose skin is on the darker side
  • Does not have that 'blur' effect as claimed


Innisfree No Sebum Blur Primer

Left: No sebum BLUR primer | Right: No sebum MINERAL primer

I got this for about SGD12.40 on kpoptown. Each tube contains 25ml of product.

Top: No sebum BLUR primer | Bottom: No sebum MINERAL primer

Although it glides as smooth as Mineral Primer, but if you put too much, you might get some clumps. When I applied it on my face, I did feel that it is not as light as Mineral Primer; but in the end after I blended everything, it still sets nicely on my skin. I have a thing about 'heavy-feeling-face-product' and cream product. Maybe because I have a very oily skin, the feeling of having something thick on my face is a peeve for me.

Again with this one, I did not see any blurring effect. It does do its job as a 'no sebum primer', but no there is no blurring effect as what they claimed.
  • Great oil control
  • Perform as a great base for foundation
  • Thick consistency
  • Does not have that 'blur' effect as claimed

How these 2 performs?

1st photo: Freshly washed face. I have these acne marks on my cheek. My vein is also visible.
2nd photo: I put on the No Sebum Blur Primer. Nothing changed really...
3rd photo: With BB cushion (Innisfree's Long Wear #23). Due to different angle, my face looks strangely brighter LOL.
4th photo: I still needed to wear concealer just like what I usually did (Innisfree's mineral stick concealer #2 and Aritaum full cover liquid concealer #2 for my panda eyes)
5th photo: I put on No Sebum Blur Powder.

In conclusion, I might consider changing my powder to Blur line but I will stick with Mineral line as for my primer. I love Innisfree but this Blur line seems to be a 'waste'. It did not do the job as claimed which is a disappointment for me as an Innisfree fan LOL!


Edit: Oh no! Innisfree Singapore is trying to troll me! When I went there I was searching for my No Sebum Mineral Primer (the green one), but they only had the Blur version now. As for the powder... guess what? They did not have the Blur Powder... only the Mineral one. Hahaha!

Edit2: But you can still get No Sebum Mineral Primer (the green one) at FullMask Singapore at Orchard... it is S$16 there.
