No noticeable difference
I had really hoped this product would make a difference but it does nothing. Ive used for 2 weeks and see no pore diminishment or General skin improvement at all.

Comments about Exfoliating Pore Refiner:
I use this everyday before bed. It's the most expensive skincare item I've bought, and I'm actually considering rebuying it. It got rid of the tiny raise pores between my eyes, seems to prevent breakouts (is that possible?), and makes my skin super soft. I use it with lotion and salicylic acid spot treatment when I need it, and it never irritates my skin. So dope.

Comments about Exfoliating Pore Refiner:
I use it all over my face and chest morning and at bedtime after washing my face and neck. Any remaining moisture on the cotton pad I apply to the outside of my upper arms. This, too, has worked very well to smooth those annoying bumps. I'll be 70 next month but don't look it thanks in part to Dr. P's products that I use.
