Hi folks, first of all let me just say that i totally agree with you it is really weird and pretty far out to have an average male review this type of skin care product, but if you stop to think a little bit you get the big picture.

In fact I'm writing about Idealist Pore Minimizing Skin Refinisher not because i have tried it and loved, but because i have indeed seen the effect it had on my loving girlfriend. Follow me on this, one thing is trying something to enhance our look and believing it works, (placebo rings a bell?) and another totally different thing is actually someone else letting you know that whatever you did is working for you, that is hands down the best feedback you can ever have with these products, that sometimes just seem ambiguous on results.

Now that i have your attention let's focus more on the subject at hand, the skin care product itself, before i go into detail on the actually feedback i got from this, lets just review the specifications stated by Estee Lauder:

• Pores appear 1/3 smaller—instantly.
• See a 69% reduction in the look of pores in just 4 weeks.
• Repairs the look of uneven skin texture,
• Smooth it on and instantly enjoy that soft, seamless, silky feeling you love.
• See more clarity and luminosity.
• Gives skin an overall more even tone.

And of course lets not forget the price tag (according to their website, but you can better deals at other sites like amazon)

• 1.0 oz. $46.50
• 1.7 oz. $73.00
• 3.4 oz. $120.00

Ok ok, don't run away just yet. Yes it does seem quite expensive but, trust me, it is worth every cent.

Well my first impression was that it does its magic right from the start, my girlfriend's skin glowed and was just silky smooth, that is really the best way to describe it. The Pores were almost non-existent, some of the redness that she had went away, and the skin was a lot more even (not dry or oily) than before. I'd snap a picture of the copious amount of skin care creams she has and uses from time to time, but honestly this one, as far as anti-age morning creams go, takes the lot.

These results don't come without a drawback, this is really (trust me) addictive as Idealist does shed years for your face, and you will want to look like that forever and ever. I still remember the expression on her face when this skin care sample got empty. It would be the perfect product if it just was free, either way i just ordered some more from amazon for her birthday, so that should bring back the joy once more.

Just some notes, it should be used every morning following with your moisturiser of choice, and you have your skin set for the day, as for night products i will in the future talk about the night repair complex still from estee lauder, that makes a great combination with the Idealist Pore Minimizing Skin Refinisher.

This will work also for males, so if you want your boyfriend to look as good as you share your idealist or buy his next christmas gift.
