I used Clarins' pore minimising serum prior to this, and it worked to some extent. This serum is MUCH better though. Makes my pores look smaller and also makes my skin so soft and matte. I find...

I bought this product because the SA claimed that it would actually "clean out my pores" in addition to minimizing them. Initially, it felt great on my face. It made my skin really soft and...

I just love the new formular. I've been using it for about a month and my skin looks really great. It's even better than the old Idealist.

This review is for Estee Lauder's NEW improved version of the original Idealist. I've never tried the old one, so I can't make a comparison, but I'm 3/4 through my 50ml bottle after two months and...

I don't why it makes my pores more obvious! The blackheads look really dirty after using that! However, I do love the scent of the serum. And it could actually soften skin.

Worked okay, very "silicone" in it's feel. Basically a dupe of ORIGINS "A Perfect World" in smell, texture and formulation- but more expensive.

Have been using this product for almost a month and it really helps to diminish pores. Your skin will be soft and smooth instantly after application. Highly recommend !!!

Didn't like the previous version at all because of the powdery matt finish. But fell in love with this one, it contains great variety of beneficial ingredients and it really works.

I liked ig, nothing special. I just payed a bunch of money for a useless product. The only thing it did for my skin was make it soft, but my moisterizer did that. So no, I didn't really care for it.
