    I received THREE (3) bottles of this product in a goody bag, which allowed me ample time to try it and see if any pores were minimized. Sorry foiks, no actual pore minimizing, no actual skin...

    The good thing about this product is that it fully agreed with my skin, it didn't cause any clogged pores, but then again I didn't think it minimized my pores either. The skin feels very smooth...

    I love this product. I have noticed that as I have gotten older my pores are much more obvious. This product really helps.

    Coming from an East Asian Idealist seemed to work rather nicely the first day or so. After a few days of using it I noticed I started to get minor break-outs here and there. I normally don't get...

    I got a sample size of it. It feels really smooth to put on and evens my skins tones immediately. My pores are small so I can't tell whether it does something to the pores. It makes my face glow...

    I love the way the Idealist makes my skin feel (sooo soft and smooth!) but I don't think it does much for the appearance of my skin. I'll continue to use, however, as it is usually included in a...
