Jane Iredale's Smooth Affair Brightening Primer is a favorite for those seeking to extend makeup wear and minimize pores, particularly for oily skin types. Users consistently praise its ability to create a smooth, flawless canvas that keeps makeup in place without streaking, thanks to ingredients like Zinc PCA, which regulates oil production, preventing excess shine and makeup slip. The lightweight formula ensures a radiant finish, refining pores without leaving the skin feeling greasy.
In addition to controlling oil, this primer brightens the complexion through gentle exfoliating fruit extracts like Apple and Grapefruit, which slough off dead skin cells, revealing a fresher, more even tone. Vitamin C derivatives, such as Ascorbyl Glucoside and Sodium Ascorbate, further enhance this effect by inhibiting melanin production, reducing dark spots, and promoting a healthy glow. Meanwhile, White and Green Tea extracts offer antioxidant protection, soothing the skin and preventing environmental damage.
Ideal for oily skin types with uneven skin pigmentation, but it is also safe for dry and sensitive skin types. It's free from harsh chemicals like parabens, sulfates, oil, fragrance, and phthalates. It is non-comedogenic but has dimethicone which can clog pores if not washed off at night.
I find that this works a lot better for oily skin types than dry skin types. It is ideal for ORPW skin types that wear makeup. Note that you must wash your face thoroughly at night to prevent comedones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Brightening Primer work well for oily skin?
Yes, it's recommended for oily skin types due to its ability
to control excess oil and prevent makeup from streaking. The Zinc PCA in the
formula helps regulate oil production, making it a popular choice for those
with shiny or oily skin.
Can this primer minimize the appearance of pores?
Many users find that it smooths the skin and reduces the
appearance of pores, creating a more even surface for makeup application. This
makes it especially helpful for those with enlarged pores who want a flawless
finish. It does not
actually shrink pores, it just makes them look smaller.
Does Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Primer make makeup last longer?
Yes, the primer is frequently praised for extending the wear
of makeup without causing it to break down or streak throughout the day. It
creates a stable base, which helps makeup adhere better, particularly for oily
skin.
Is this primer non-comedogenic and safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, it's formulated to be non-comedogenic, meaning it won't
clog pores. It is also suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin, as the
formula is free from harsh ingredients like parabens and sulfates.
Does Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Primer brighten the skin?
The primer contains fruit extracts like Apple and
Grapefruit, along with Vitamin C derivatives, which help brighten the
complexion by gently exfoliating and reducing the appearance of dark spots.
Does Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Primer cause break-outs?
Jane Iredale Smooth Affair Brightening Primer has been
tested and shown to be non-comedogenic, meaning it’s designed not to clog pores
or cause acne. However, because it contains dimethicone, a silicone-based
ingredient that forms a barrier on the skin, there is a potential for
blackheads or clogged pores if the primer isn’t properly removed before bed.
It’s essential to thoroughly cleanse your face at night, as sleeping with
makeup or primer on can lead to breakouts—something you should always avoid, regardless
of the product.
