    I bought this product because it was raved by a a youtube guru. So I gave it a try. I guess I would consider it my first primer and it's really a pain. You have to wait 5 minutes for the product to...

    I love this product because my skin gets really oily, and this really helps! I know this claims to be pore minimizer, but I don't really notice that effect. I love how it makes my makeup go on so...

    Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone is AMAZING! Honestly, I have the hugest pores on my nose and cheeks, and you can spot them from a mile away, not attractive. So I gave this a try and OMG, it...

    According to the seller this was supposed to be a kind of "pore minimizer".. But does this refine the texture of the skin or minimize pores? No...I wanted it to do so, but no... I was a little...

    i am a bit indifferent to this, it made the pores on my nose less noticable, but it was slightly too dry so the foundation seemed to grab on to it more making it heavier than i wanted. i still love...

    This product works wonders for reducing the size of visible pores, but only if you apply it correctly and it is a rather finicky product. Apply with a concealer brush, very lightly along your T...

    This product made my T zone oilier! Maybe because it was clogging my pores?! This smells like paint, NOT MAC paints, but PAINT like the stuff on walls! No effect whatsoever on the size of my pores!...
