ok.. I have huge pores around my cheeks so when I put blush on they are more noticeable.. I wish I could find a foundation that can help with this..

I am not interested in a primer because I tried a sample and did not like the results so.. thanks in advance

i found primers made my skin very oily (i also have large pores) toner temporarily tightens pores but i dont think you will find anything thats lasts longer than 1 or so hours! if you do though, let me know!

try a primer SPECIFICALLY for making pores appear smaller.....clinique pore minimizer instant perfector is a good one.....I have virtual oil drums on my nose, and it does the trick. the up side is its fairly cheap, and if you hate it, you can return it to the clinique counter. getting a primer that will smooth them out will help your foundation go over your skin without falling into those imperfections, which magnifies them.....remember not all primers are created equal, just like foundations!!! good luck!

I really like dr brandt's pores no more from sephora. actually all the dr brandt stuff I have used I really like. I really dislike primers as I find they make my makeup "slip" off more? Maybe I am crazy and picky. But anyway, this one is really good and does make pores appear smaller for sure.

you can put it on your face for 15/20 minutes as a mask, or you can mix it with a moisturizer and just let it dry out before putting on your make up!

I would suggest u use an AHA/ Retinol at night. This will make ur skin exfoliate and overtime ur pores will get smaller.

Sorry for the late reply. Here's what I do with the MoM:

This is for a skin primer:

Most dilute it so they don't get white streaks. However, I don't dilute it, I just apply it with a soggy cotton pad. If I get white streaks, I don't care, because I'm putting my regular makeup primer over it, so the streaks go away.

As a mask, just apply it to your face and let it dry, then rinse off. Again, when I did it as a mask, I let it dry and then just applied a light moisturizer over it.

I'm telling you, I was in shock at how well it kept the oilies away. I wish I had taken a picture of how my foundation looked at the end of the night both before and after I used it. The difference was amazing to me...and it actually did minimize my pores. A LOT, especially on my nose.

Can you suggest a good product? There's so much crap to choose from, I have no idea where to start!

Hey I was just wondering if this was the same Milk of Magnesia that comes in a blue bottle that you have for indegestion? I'm from the UK so not sure whether you have different products over the pond

I love the Clinique Pore Minimizer as well. I just use it where my pores look largest and it does a great job.
