Instantly blur the look of pores, texture, and fine lines while helping skin appear smoother and more balanced over time with this smoothing balm. This first-of-its-kind, silicone-free blurring balm delivers a soft-focus finish without powders, pore-clogging ingredients, or a cakey feel.

Powered by clinically tested light-diffusing pigments, lightweight and waterless, this formula melts seamlessly into skin for a visibly smoother, more even-looking complexion while helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines for up to 6 hours. Patent-pending, 100% natural elastomers provide the same silky glide and velvety finish traditionally achieved with silicone elastomers—without silicone.

Formulated with 2% salicylic acid, this multi-tasking balm helps promote a clearer, more refined-looking complexion with continued use, while squalane helps keep skin feeling soft and comfortable without dryness.

Wear it alone for a naturally filtered finish, under makeup as a smoothing primer, or over makeup to refresh your complexion throughout the day. The result is instantly blurred, smoother-looking skin that feels as good as it looks.

Thank you thank you thank

"Thank you thank you thank you Mario Badescu! I’ve been a patron since 1986 (fondly remembering facials with Sia!), and Blurring Balm is one of the most brilliant and useful products you have introduced. It really works!! I have many pitted facial scars from chicken pox and acne becoming more prominent with age, and this balm easily fills them without causing clogged pores. It stays in place til rubbed or washed away. I either use tinted concealer to mix with it before applying or apply as-is then dust with tinted powder. I never want to be without it. Truly fantastic!"

What an amazing product

"This solves so many problems. My skin can be very sensitive, especially in heat, and this has not bothered me at all. It’s great alone or as a primer. It does not smell, even a little bit. You just need to warm it under your fingers, and you are set."

Gorgeous! All the stars!

"Mario Badescu solves another problem for me! I have been using a silicone product under my BB cream to try to obscure the orange peel skin and wrinkles developing around my mouth and the enlarged pores I’ve battled since my teens. It’s been a meh solution that creates some cakiness and flaking and leaves me shiny with a couple hours. This blur balm is sooooooo much better! Goes on smooth and makes my skin look even and glowy instantly. My BB cream goes on top smoothly with no flaking and doesn’t settle into wrinkles. And hours later, no shine. I’m excited to reap the benefits of the salicylic acid over time, so this layer of my skincare routine will be more beneficial. I am a huge fan of Mario Badescu, so I’m not really surprised. Just grateful!"

"I'm glad I decided to try the Blurring Balm. I wear it alone when I don't want to wear makeup, and under makeup as it blurs the pores."

I’ve only used it twice.

"I’ve only used it twice. Once you get used to how thick it is and how you put it on it works really well."
