Great For Oily Skin
This has been the over-all best product - hands down for me. This is the first pore minimizer that has ever worked on my face! I have stopped using the Smashbox anti-shine primer because I don't need it now like I did before. I started using the L'Oreal - Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re-Smoother Serum mostly to minimize my pores but what I found out it does for me is keep in check my oil production. Who-Hoo! I have been very pleasantly surprised that I barely have any oil buildup on my forehead now, a little around the base of my nose. I probably could dab a bit of Smashbox's anti-shine there! But not a big deal now because I am so much better!<br />The L'Oreal - Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re-Smoother Serum has a med thick creamy constancy, not runny. The bottle is a nice pump that pumps out just a little at a time, unlike some pumpers that makes you waste product. I just wish it had a see through window/line that lets you know how much is left. I wash my face or rewet it and I apply a small amount. A little is all you need. I feel a small tingle for a couple of seconds then my face is tighter and smoother feeling - all day too! It helps a little with lines - but just minimum/fine - so don't count on it as a big line eraser. If you have dry skin you defiantly will need to moisturize. I do moisturize at night as I don't care if I get oily then. In the colder few days here in the Fl winter I may have to apply a moisturizer.<br />I have been using it now for almost a year and have had no break outs or allergic reactions to it. I'm 50 a non sunbather with very little wrinkles (PTL) but I have oily skin, slightly sensitive.<br />During the day I use a face sunscreen and sometimes the too faced liquid primer, then I apply my base, Clinique Redness Solutions in #3 Ivory (Medium+ Coverage - slight yellow based, most lt-med shades out there are too pink) and then over that I dust with Too Faced Primed & Poreless Skin Smoothing Priming Powder & Finishing veil (more oil control & smoothing) and I am look'n good - all day! (I also apply eye make up of course & Too Faced bronzer sometimes)<br />I defiantly recommend the L'Oreal - Skin Genesis Pore Minimizing Skin Re-Smoother Serum, if your skin is not sensitive to any of the ingredients this is a product that works. Just don't count on it as a big wrinkle fixer or give you any moisturizing. It's a treatment type product and you don't need to apply a lot for it to work either.  I hope L'oreal keeps making this! It's a winner!
