Oh my word. So, 3 nights of using this stuff, and my pores look a lot less noticeable. I thought I was using it wrong because I wasn't seeing the gritty pieces that people were showing on social media with cleansing oils, but sure enough, my pores look cleaner and less noticeable after just 3 nights! I was worried it was going to break me out but it didn't. It emulsifies well and it cleans off well with rinsing, even before using a cleanser (which I still recommend). It's supposed to be fragrance-free, but it does contail essential oils, so it does have that essential oil smell to it. It didn't bother me at all, but I wanted to put it out there in case someone is sensitive to it.
antodsee
