You know in diet magazines where the women have that one picture they saw of themselves and it just shocked them into a crazy regime of not eating - I had one of those moments but about my skin - this was the picture -
My large pores have been something that have always bothered me about my skin - Benefits Porefessional has been a bit of a saviour (I blogged it here) but I've been looking for something to that minimises my pores when not wearing make-up and just more of a long term solution. This picture really pushed me into searching the isles of Boots trying to find a product that could help, and one that also didn't cost the earth to keep replacing.
Then I came across this little gem. The Simple Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser. It is available here for £4.99 in Boots I picked it up in a 3 for 2 which is still on at the moment.
This product minimised my pores make-up or no make-up within days of using it. However I thought surely it can't last - so I stopped using it for 3 or 4 days but my pores remained visibly smaller. I started using it again and I've now been using it for 2 weeks twice a day and I'm going to go as far as saying this has revolutionised the appearance of my skin.
In my recent FOTD you can still my pores I know but they are considerably smaller and there is far less of them - here I'm not wearing any Porefessional just BB cream and foundation. I still love Porefessional but I'm finding I don't need to rely on it so much to even out my skin tone. On holiday I can just wear a BB cream to get an even complexion without the need for a pore minimising primer too. The product itself is lovely its clear, there is no fragrance and really cleanses my skin. I use it after my clinique clarifying lotion followed by my Simple regeneration day or night cream
I know skin care is completely subjective as we all have such different skin types. But for me this product is a god send, I absolutely love it, its made my skin a much better base for make-up overall. If you do have problems with large pores this is definitely worth trying out in your skincare routine.
