    I started using the refinisher 10 years ago, long before they changed the packaging. It makes my skin look pore-less and ultra soft to the touch. Although the novelty has worn out and I only use...

    The second I put this stuff on, I did notice a dramatic difference in the pore size on my cheeks, nose, and forehead. It smoothed out the texture of my skin, and it has a delightfully light...

    I received a free bottle with a purchase, and will definitely not buy another. Though this smells nice, it leaves a waxy silicon residue and makes my makeup slide right off. The formula doesn't...

    This is quite expensive given that it does not make any difference to my skin. Would not recommend this!

    This makes my skin feel nice temporarily..however, once I wash my face, the effect is gone. Way too expensive for a mediocre product.

    Like others, I had very high hopes for this one. It feels nice going on, looks god for like one minute, but in the end does nothing, and I find it left a chalky residue.

    I loved the original Idealist and think they should have stuck to that forumla. This was horrible. It made my skin very oily and I had a terrible break out. I had to take this back.

    This is at most a primer, hardly a treatment at all. The reason why it minimizes pores upon application and makes your skin velvet smooth is because of the high silicone content. So this is where...
