Review (5/5): Perfection
I do not generally use these types of products. The farthest I've usually gone is to use a gentle cream-cleanser am and pm and then MAYBE (if my skin is feeling dry) a mild face-lotion. I've never liked the serums, the roll-on mumbo-jumbo, mostly because (lets get real) it's just a fancy container.
Then I discovered this product;
It's truly perfect. It has noticeably reduced the size and appearance of my pores, and unlike almost every other serum/lotion I've ever tried, it doesn't ever leave my skin feeling greasy - quite the opposite. My skin feels so soft, and so silky, that it's hard NOT to touch, thought I try since that's never good for your skin :p
I've always hated wearing make-up (like foundation, concealer, etc.) because it feels gross, and you can literally feel it clog up your pores. But then, when I get a pimple or a blemish, I almost can't stand to NOT wear SOMETHING because it always looks so obvious on my otherwise clear-skin. And THATS what makes this product so perfect! Not only does it reduce the size of your pores, and give your skin a healthier more even tone in the long-run, it's also amazing in the short term! Just a minute or two after you apply it, when it dries, the product actually seems to "cover" and "fade" any blemishes you currently have!
I'm totally addicted to this product, use it morning and night. I don't know how I lived without it, and I certainly never wish to do so again! If L'Oreal stopped making it, I would be distraught! That's how amazing this stuff is. Not only does it truly help with your pore size in the long-term, it's the first PERFECT PRODUCT I've ever found in my life - no complaints, whatsoever!
I read one other review where the person mentioned that the bottle would clog or something, and then feel like it was empty when it wasn't? Well, the product itself is very light, so the bottle kind of feels empty to begin with. And as long as you "close" the bottle once you've applied it, the pump does NOT clog! You don't need more than 2 to 3 pumps to cover your whole face, a very small amount - if you apply it too thickly it'll actually feel too thick as it dries, so you'll know; it's not hard to figure out your "perfect" amount. To "close" it (there's no actual "lid") you simply twist the top of the tube (the white part, the lip of the dispenser)in the direction the arrow indicates. As long as you aren't leaving it open, it won't clog - never been a problem for me and I'm on my 5th bottle, been using it for around 7 months now.
I don't plan to ever stop - I hope I don't ever have to.
