As some might have read in my previous posts, i struggle with huge pores and nasty blackheads. I decided to try this after searching endlessly for a reasonably priced pore refining serum. I dont like the way it feels on my skin for the first 20 seconds after application however after it absorba into your skin your skin feels soft and smooth. Keeps skin oil free all day, and pores are definitely refined. Great price, great product!
