    I had high hopes for this product but it clogged my pores and I ended up with HUGE pimples! I've got normal/combination skin.

    I've been using it for more than a month now. My skin is oily, it made my skin smooth and less shine. It may have reduced some of my fine lines, but hard to tell. I don't think the result justifies...

    It made me break out all over my face.I'm so disappointed and angry.Don't buy this product if you have sensitive or acne-prone skin. Try Estee Lauder's Fruitution Extra instead.

    I use this whenever I remember it's there! First I use the Micro-D and then follow up with this product and then my moisturizer. I find my normal-to-dry skin looks smooth. Will probably repurchase.
