I usually associate Clean & Clear as a line for teens, save for my cheapie one step facial, Morning Burst In- Shower Facial (formerly known as STEAM In-Shower Facial), which you can read about here, but on a recent drugstore expedition I stumbled upon Finishes Pore Perfecting Moisturizer, a fairly new product part of the new Finishes line of cleanser, moisturizer and toner. I'm a sucker for anything promising to smooth the appearance of pores, and at around $6.49, I thought why not pick it up and see if it works.
The Experience:
Upon first application the moisturizer felt really light and non-greasy, yet hydrating at the same time. I love the fact that it has SPF 15 as well, yet manages to not have that heavy, SPF moisturizer feeling. I definitely noticed some pore smoothing action on bare skin, which looked even better topped with foundation. The real standout was how this moisturizer performed in natural light, which can be pretty harsh. Pores didn't completely dissappear, but they did look softened and diffused, which is exactly what Finishes promises to do. So how exactly does it work? Light reflecting minerals smooth the appearance of pores and imperfections for healthy looking skin.
The Verdict:
If you're looking for something to smooth imperfections, soften the appearance of pores, protect from the sun, moisturizer without being heavy and work great under makeup, Clean & Clear Finishes is a no brainer - especially at the $6.49 price tag (which is going rate at Target.com). Pick it up at drugstores nationwide.
