I only use this on my nose, where for some reason the pores have decided to look big and dirty. The only other product I've found which clears and minimizes these pores is Biore pore strips, which I don't love using too frequently. This powder is easy to dab on, which I do after washing. The eff...

I don't know how I feel about this. It does what it claims- minimizes pores after 1 use! However it is very drying and I have combo acne prone skin. I only used it in my tzone where I get oily and it dried me out! My skin was so tight and flaky. I don't think the results are worth it. I had to add s...

I only use this on my nose, where for some reason the pores have decided to look big and dirty. The only other product I've found which clears and minimizes these pores is Biore pore strips, which I don't love using too frequently. This powder is easy to dab on, which I do after washing. The effect lasts sometimes up to the full day depending on my activity level and humidity, etc. I do not see any down sides to this powder except a temporary cloud of dust if you rush application. I've used my finger to apply but usually I prefer a little brush to dab it on. It's just so rewarding to see immediate improvement. I love it and keep some in the upstairs bathroom and downstairs as well. This is on my top ten list of items.

I have many pock marks on my nose due to acne from when I was younger. This is the only product that has worked to "hide" them. I highly recommend it.
Great for Oily Skin
I have P.C.O.S., and it makes me have horribly oily skin. This stuff is the only thing that has ever worked to keep the oil at bay after washing my face. I use it once or twice a week and have noticed a huge difference. If your skin is dry, this may not be a good product for you because it has a very drying effect, which for me is needed. As far as pore minimizing, it works pretty good, you can see results after one use. You apply the powder with a wet cotton round, and let it sit for 10 minutes, however as the powder sits and drys, it flakes powder everywhere, so it's best used in an easy clean up spot. You can't really sit on your couch with it on because its like tiny snow falling from your face while it's on. I use 100% Witch Hazel to wipe off and have instantly better skin, truly great product!
