Doesn't live up to it's claim.
Using this as directed i didn't notice a change in my pore size at all. It made the tops of the blackheads white, which i suppose is better than black but not what i was expecting. I tried using a biore pore strip afterwards like another reviwer recommended and i got way more plugs out of my nose than ever before. It should be called "Pore strip booster". :)This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 4 people said helpful

Not as great as I thought it would be!
All I can say is that it tightens pores and removes excess oil. It doesn't remove blackheads or clean out pores. Its also very messy and when it dries the dust starts falling all over the place.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

It works, but try these directions instead
This powder does a good job of absorbing the oil in my blackheads and therefore makes them less dark, grimy, and thus less noticeable. I have not tried this product on whiteheads, although when I speak of my blackheads, I'm referring to "brown heads" if you will. To get the product to work (and if your skin won't mind it) I highly recommend that you use the product a bit differently than describ...read moreed in the directions. Again, only if your skin will tolerate it: 1. Use the product after you've cleansed, or even better, after a shower when your pores are open the most. Or try leaving a warm washcloth on your skin to encourage pore opening. 2. Application: Instead of applying dry powder to wet skin, use a Q-tip to mix the powder with water (I use back of my hand) and make a paste. Then apply paste on pore areas with the Q-tip. 3. Time: I leave mine on overnight, but that might not be necessary and you might not want powder on your pillow. But try leaving it on a bit longer. 4. Removal: Instead of rinsing off, try removing the product with an astringent & cotton ball. For sensitive skin, perhaps try a more gentle toner. When I follow these steps, I notice a significant fading of the brown heads on my nose.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful
