Benefit the POREfessional vs. Maybelline Baby Skin

I have been using the POREfessional for awhile now, so when I saw that Maybelline's Baby Skin was named a dupe I knew I had to try it out for myself. Benefit's the POREfessional is $30 for .75oz and Baby Skin is $7 for .67oz. Obviously, Baby Skin is much, much cheaper!  

After using the POREfessional for quite awhile and the Baby Skin for a good week I feel like I can say  . . . 

that I really prefer the POREfessional. I would have to say it it is a texture thing for me. The Baby Skin comes out clear, no scent, and has a Vaseline texture. The POREfessional is tinted, a faint scent (smells like a foundation/concealer) and is not as greasy as the Baby Skin. I truly think the coverage is about even. If texture doesn't bother you then maybe Baby Skin will work for you and save you a whole lot of money! I, personally, am going to stick with the POREfessional, it is truly a holy grail beauty product for me!

Love that you're beauty blogging! Good to know. I love Benefit but always cringe at the cost. Worth it for quality.
