I liked this product at first, but after a while it started hurting my sensitive skin. I think it would work well for people without sensitive skin issues though as it did make my skin feel smooth.

(I bought this at Shoppers Drug Mart in Langley, BC Canada on sale for $22)

I bought this on Amazon for ten bucks. I've been looking for a good pore minimizing serum for almost a year and when I was browsing on Amazon and saw this, I thought why not try it. I have oily skin and acne problems, and the pores on my nose, mid-forehead and cheek area get very enlarged.

I really like this product for the price that I bought it at. I like the way it feels on my skin and it has a refreshing smell to it that's nice but not overwhelming. It doesn't make your pores disappear overnight. After about a week of use I noticed the pores on my nose decrease in size and the skin became smoother. They got smaller as I continued to use the product. I used this after I put on my deep cleansing pore strips on my nose, right before I went to sleep and it also helped to reduce the number of blackheads I had! I'm sure there are better products out there, but for the price I got it at, I really like this. I will continue to use it until I run out and will decide whether or not to re-purchase or try something new based on how my skin looks.

I've only been using this for a week, so I don't know yet whether it will actually minimize my pores, but it makes them look smaller because of the quality that will make me buy this again: it mattifies without drying. My skin is soft, but it's not shiny! Pleasant smell, doesn't bother my sensitive skin.

I started using this after a pretty bad breakout and I needed something to speed up the healing process. My skin was blotchy, bumpy and it looked quite sallow. My first positive impression is the packaging: it comes in a pump and dispenses just enough to cover your face without leaving it greasy. The second is the smell: it's fresh, not overwhelming. It doesn't irritate my skin like other skin refinishers do and it makes my skin feel smooth. I use it in the evening; afterwards I top it with the Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing moisturizer. In the morning my skin looks even, rested and feels soft. In the morning, I tone my skin with Skin Genesis tonic and I put on the Pore Minimizing moisturizer again. It's a bit pricey but considering other products (like EL Idealist) in the same range, I think it's a fair price. I'll buy again!

I bought this along with the skin genesis pore minimizing cleanser thinking maybe it'd speed up the process of minimizing my pores. this bottle only lasted me just over a month and i only used it on my cheeks and nose. my pores did seem to look less visible as i used this but it may also be due to the fact i was using it in conjuction with the cleanser. overall i'm not too sure if i'd buy this product again simply because it's pretty expensive for how little it lasted...i'd probably try out a different product before giving this one another chance

Bottom line: did not do anything at all for my skin. Not even any slight different in my pores. $20 totally wasted.

Having VERY sensitive skin I was skeptical of using anything new on my face. I have been using this product for about a month now and although i dont notice any change in the pore size I have noticed that my skin has become pretty soft. Because of the price I am not sure I will buy this product again after I run out. It has lasted awhile though.

when i first bought this product, I was skeptical as I have tried several pore reducing cleanser but didnt work. therefore, i decided to purchase this serum as the product might work better if it lasted longer on my skin. It comes in an attractive pump bottle that keeps the serum well protected inside and there was also a cashback offer from Farmers. this product lasted me for about 1 month... within 1 to 2 weeks, i noticed that the size of pore on my cheeks n foreheads have reduced and appeared less congested.. my skin looked more refine and cleaner.. i also like the smell to it.. i've ran out of this product and is planning on observing the progress of my skin.. if my skin continues to maintain, i may not buy it again as the price is pretty steep for my budget as a student.. however, this product is recommended!

I have been using this for a few weeks and do notice a slight difference in the pores on my cheeks. It has a slight but nice smell to it. It isn't very thick but not like water thin either. I am using the cleanser as well with it. So far no breakouts which is very important to me!
