ENDED...Review & Giveaway - Pore Refining Skincare by Dermae

Congrats to Kittenish for winning this giveaway! Thank you to everyone who entered and to the giveaway sponsor for offering this awesome prize!!

Over the years, I have started noticing that the pores on my nose and cheeks have gotten bigger. I have never had the best skin and have tried many products. Dermae has a line of skincare products that help deep clean, exfoliate and reduce the look of pores with their Vitamin A product line.

I was able to try out the Dermae Vitamin A Glycolic Cleanser, Vitamin A Pore Refining Gel and Vitamin A Pore Refining Mask. The sampler kit is good for a one time use so it was hard to get a real feel for how the products will work over time.

The Vitamin A Glycolic Cleanser is made with Glycolic Acid, Vitamin A, Sea Kelp and Papaya. Apply the cleanser to dampened skin and massage into skin. Rinse clean. I felt like this cleanser did a really great job at removing almost all dirt, oils and makeup from my face and neck. My skin felt clean and looked clean afterwards. One full size bottle is only $11.50.

The Vitamin A Pore Refining Gel is made with Glycolic Acid, willow Bark, Calendula and Witch Hazel. Apply to skin areas that you wish to refine after you have washed your face. Follow with a moisturizer. The gel is a bit liquidy to use. It did however seem to make the areas of my pores shrink or make my skin feel somewhat tightened. One full size bottle is only $19.50.

The Vitamin A Pore Refining Mask is made with Glycolic Acid, Willow Bark and Calendula. This mask helps to balance oily and/or combination skin and reduce the look of pores. You apply to cleansed skin and leave on for 10 minutes before rinsing off. I felt that this mask really helped to remove extra oils from my combination skin and left my skin feeling refreshed and smooth. You can purchase a full size bottle for only $17.50.
