Summary: This is a must for oily skin, actually shrinks large pores...
Comment: OK, I know it is gross, but if you didn't think you had a problem with your skin then you wouldn't be on reading this right now. I have tried everything, lots of stuff isn't worth 2 cents and then there's Clinique Pore Refining Lotion. This is a must in my daily routine, I even wear it when I am sleeping. How to use: Wash face, then apply after any serums that you may use, but before moisturizer with sunscreen, primer, concealor or foundation. DO NOT PUT TOO MUCH ON if you are planning on layering makeup on top of it, as it will make your makeup flake off your skin. This is not something that you would smear all over, only on your oily areas (such as nose, chin etc). If you use it on your dry areas, it will make your face look to dry. Nobody wants face dandruff on their black turtleneck. WHAT IT DOES: makes your face appear less oily, reduces the size of pores slightly the first few times you use it, but the pores will get smaller if you use it everyday. It also feels pretty nice when you rub it on (warm and tingly). It does contain salicyclic acid, so it prevents pores from clogging. The size of the tube is huge, it will at least a month or two with daily use. I think this works better than any clean-and-clear product, better than biore pore strips, thus the more expensive price. The only bad thing about this product is that it may dry out your skin if you use it too much and cause flaky skin. One of the other benefits is that it will reduce the amount of oil that your skin produces throughout the day, thus you won't have to blot or powder pat as much as normal.
