Most Helpful Positive Review magic !!!! i've had enlarged pores since i started getting acne around 12/13 yrs old. all around my nose and cheeks and i just got used to it because nothing really ever helped, no matter what scrub or pore mask i use they were always very noticeable. i tried this and after three uses (i apply it day & night after my toner) i noticed they were smaller and then after a few more days i noticed my pores actually were way tighter!!! i'd say in about a week i've seen a difference which is crazy and this helps control my oils as well and makes my foundation look super smooth as i've always had trouble with it sinking into pores even with primers. it's so soothing, smells nice, absorbs quickly and feels cooling on the skin. definitely going to repurchase when it runs out although the bottle is huge and will last me quite a while i use one pump for each application. i love this so much i highly recommend it!!!
Most Helpful Critical Review not sure I really really really really wanted to love this product. I've had acne since puberty, but once I turned 25-26, I've noticed that I get less acne, maybe 1 pimple a month, but my pores are huge and love dirt leaving me with tons of blackheads. I bought this and the Sleeping Gel Mask of the same brand. I loved the smell and feel of this product. I used my fingers to apply it, then switched to cotton pads, but felt it was soaking into the pads rather then my face, so went back to my fingers. I used it for about 4 weeks at least once a day, sometimes twice a day after cleansing and under my moisturizer (then the Awake Sleeping Mask at night). I didn't notice much of a difference in my pores. It was more of a luxury to use than it being useful. Overall I'd recommend it if youre looking for post cleansing treatment but not ready for fancy serums. It might work better now since I started using a Clarisonic Brush. Maybe worth another shot. Idk, I'm on the fence.

I used this a couple months consecutively and saw no difference in pore size. It did leave my skin feeling soft and absorbed well but not worth the price at all.
Awesome Product 5
Tratra from Nj
Best tightening serum. Lifts. Everyone noticed a difference.
I was skeptical 4
oh.jennu from Orlando
Truth be told, I've always had quite a porous nose / t zone area but saw this and figured why not give it a try. Upon reading the box, it also claimed to even out the skin and help with texture.
I'm on night 2 of using this.
Pros; my skin feels supple, smooth, and I can see some difference in my nose despite only using this product three or four times now.
Cons; it has quite a bit of alcohol—so much so it smells like Vodka. The funny thing is though it doesn't sting. It has alcohol but it doesn't burn like the body shop's tea tree facial toner which left me with a chemical burn like reaction.
All In all I'm pretty satisfied.

i bought this after an ulta employee raved about it. she said it was good for minimizing pores. however it appeared to do nothing for my skin. it's not worth the price
Love this product!! 5

I love this lightweight formula after facial care. It feels so good. I place mine in the refrigerator and after cleansing, I put it on my face for a soothing effect and it feels great!
really disappointed 1
Katy Z from Brooklyn, OH
I would never put this on my face again! There is way too much alcohol in this. I actually started using this to exfoliate after waxing my legs because that skin is a little tougher than my face, but it's even harsh for that.
Alcohol is the second ingredient!! 1
Cookie from NYC
I got this as a sample. The moment I put it on my face, I smelled the alcohol. I went online to see the ingredient list and alcohol is literally the second ingredient after water. I would never put it on my face again knowing how much alcohol is in this product.
Amazing!!! 5
Rose from Moreno Valley ,CA
Had a birthday gift card So decided to give this a try. Never heard of this brand, I have to say I loved it. I have acne prone skill and was looking for something that will minimize my acne. This definitely did the Job. I put this on last. I love it. It gives you a glow and your pores do minimize. I recommend.

Use every morning 5
Brittany from Wisconsin
I have large pores on my nose and oily skin. This helps reduce the appearance and size of my pores. I haven't noticed if it helps with oily skin. I follow it up with moisturizer.
Flop for me 2
Chona from San Diego
I really wanted to love this product but honestly, i noticed little to no difference in my pore size. Maybe my skin was being a little picky as it tends to be sometimes, but I don't think it's worth repurchasing to find out. I hope it works better for others than it did for me :)
Love it!! 5
Samantha from Ohio
I have been using this for about two months now and have noticed a big difference in my pores. They used to be very visible but with this serum they are barely there. This also makes my makeup look way better and I don't even use a primer now. I apply this at night with my moisturizer. I definitely recommend!!!!
its pretty good! 4
Brandy from Nashville TN
Its still doing its thing! I am very oily so products take time to work for me. I'm about to turn 43 and have been taking care of my skin for a long time. I dont wear makeup so things that make my skin look good are important. this is starting to work after the first week. slow but it is doing its job. not seeing much for my pores shrinking but the oil is being absorbed. Thats a big step.
Doesn't work & not good for dry skin 1
Jules from Milwaukee, WI
I have large pours so an accociate recommended this product. I've been using for a week straight and I haven't noticed a difference at all. This product is harsh on the skin and just made my dry skin worse. Waste of money!

It WORKS! 5
Beauty Lover from Los Angeles, CA
I don't see this product getting much love, but LET me tell you it works! I rate this product 100% recommended to all the girls and gentlemen who suffer from large pores. It works so good my pores are smaller. My foundation doesn't sink into my pores anymore. I LOVE THIS PRODUCT so much. I will buy it again and again.

I love this tightening concentrate, I've been using it every morning for a year and it helps get off excess dirt and oil that you may have missed. It also makes my skin feel extra fresh before I apply my makeup
