The TheHistoryOfWhoo Gongjinhyang Mi Velvet Primer Base is a luxury makeup primer focused on pore blurring, oil balance and makeup longevity.
What is a pore-blurring primer?
These formulas use texture and powders to make pores look less noticeable under makeup. They do not physically shrink pores.
Who may like this one?
Someone with combination or oily skin who wants a smoother base and tends to notice makeup breaking apart around the T-zone may get the most use from this type of primer.
What does the luxury formula add?
The product is positioned with gold, amber and pearl particles for radiance, alongside the brand’s traditional herbal aesthetic. Whether that is worth the price depends on how much you value texture, wear and presentation.
Do you need primer at all?
If your sunscreen and foundation already layer well, maybe not. Primer is an optional makeup step.
Blushcraft currently carries the Gongjinhyang Mi Velvet Primer Base.
Use primer where it changes the result
TheHistoryOfWhoo Velvet Primer Base can be evaluated on areas where makeup catches or where you want a smoother-looking finish. You may not need it across the entire face. Compare your normal base with a small amount of primer under the same complexion product.
If the combination pills, reduce the number or thickness of layers and test each pairing separately. Adding more primer is not always the solution. A blurring appearance is a makeup effect, not a permanent change to pore size.
Application and wear troubleshooting
Test a thin layer over your usual skincare rather than changing every base product at once. If it separates or rolls into flakes, reduce excess layers and test the combinations individually. If coverage looks heavy, build only on the areas that need it and review the applicator method.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a shade online?
Match the exact shade name and number, not just the promotional finish. Compare any available swatches with your existing products, while allowing for lighting and screen differences. Refill value comes after shade suitability.
