1. As we age, our skin loses elasticity and succumbs to gravity, causing it to sag. This is because the connection between the dermis and epidermis becomes looser. This serum works to strengthen these areas, effectively lifting the skin and beautifully sculpting your face line! 2. I felt like my enlarged pores were being lifted and tightened! 1. The effectiveness may vary from person to person! 2. If you're looking for firmness more than lifting, I wouldn't recommend this! Since lifting products don't necessarily provide firming effects, make sure to use a separate firming line in your skincare routine as well! - Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinOct 3, 2021
Personally, I love how it feels like it's tightening my oily pores. I've been using it thinking it's my holy grail pore product. When in a rush, I've bought it at full price from department stores, but I've also snagged it with 10-20% discounts from the official website. I was shocked when I checked the Hwahae app results... Seeing so many unfavorable ingredients was surprising, so I'm planning to switch to a different pore-focused skincare product. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinMar 22, 2021
I bought this product because I heard it was good for pores. I remember purchasing it at duty-free for around $60 when I was traveling before (it's not possible now, so it's a bit pricey ;). For combination dehydrated skin, it absorbs well and has good application, but the hydration is on the lower side. That's why it's perfect when you layer a moisturizer on top! There's definitely a feeling of tightening the pores. I noticed the effects after using it consistently for about 3 weeks. When I read the reviews, people said it was great right after applying, so I expected dramatic changes, but that wasn't the case. There might be individual differences... Aside from the price being a bit steep for the small amount, it's a product I want to keep using (if only it were cheaper, I'd love to apply it generously!). I pump it twice and apply it mainly on areas with larger pores, then spread the remainder on less affected areas. It's my little money-saving tip! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMay 15, 2020
I've been really struggling with my butterfly zone pores. I even tried laser treatments, but they were so painful I was scared to do them repeatedly. After trying various things, I decided to give this product a go without expecting much from skincare for pore issues. While it didn't magically shrink my pores overnight, I'm very satisfied because I can definitely feel my skin becoming firmer and different. What I especially love about this essence is that it doesn't cause any blemishes and absorbs well, so I'm planning to use it consistently. Hmm... The price? That's the only downside I've found so far. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMay 15, 2020
I've been using this consistently as it seems to prevent my pores from getting any larger. Since I have sensitive skin, it tends to easily cause redness after use. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAtopy SkinSensitive SkinMar 12, 2020
I've been using all Kiehl's products for my skincare routine, so I trusted the brand and made this purchase. After having a baby, my pores suddenly enlarged, which was really stressing me out. While using Kiehl's pore essence didn't give me dramatic results overnight, I noticed visible improvements with consistent use. I've been applying it morning and night for about 5 months, and my pores have definitely reduced in size! That's why I plan to keep using this product, even if I change others! The main drawback is definitely the price. It's quite expensive... I wish the volume was a bit larger too. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJul 24, 2019
I'm on my fifth bottle of this product! I've always been concerned about the enlarged pores on my cheeks and nose, but since using this, it seems like my pores aren't getting any bigger! It's also helped smooth out some of my skin's texture. Friends I haven't seen in a while always comment on how much my complexion has improved! The only downside is definitely the price! But the product works so well that I keep buying it anyway. Apply it morning and night for best results. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinJun 30, 2019
It absorbs smoothly without causing any pilling, which I really appreciate. My skin used to be an oil slick in summer, but it's become drier since pregnancy. I'm not sure if that's why, but my pores have visibly reduced. I'll need to see how it performs in the peak of summer to fully gauge its effectiveness. The quantity is quite small for the price, so I only purchase it at duty-free shops. It might be a bit drying for those with dry skin. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJun 18, 2019
I must have used over 10 bottles of this already! Pores have always been my biggest concern, and I feel like I've tried almost every pore-related product out there. But even after trying other things, I always come back to this. I regret not using it sooner! Thanks to this product, I've genuinely heard so many people say my pores have visibly reduced! There's just one thing I wish was different... the price. If they could lower it just a bit, I'd buy even more and slather it on generously! I don't have any special tips... I just apply it in circular motions around my pores and don't layer any other products on top. Since I have oily skin, I find that applying too much can actually make my pores look larger. - Hwahae UserDry SkinMar 3, 2019
Highly recommended! I noticed pore-tightening effects from the second bottle. My nose pores are particularly problematic, but I'm seeing results. Using it consistently as a couple, we can feel the difference. The scent is pleasant and not overwhelming. The texture is like thin mucus, easy to apply. The ingredients list is slightly disappointing. The price is a bit steep for the amount you get.
