This product does exactly as it promises - it minimizes my pores and makes my face smoother than a baby's butt. It has really great buildable coverage as well, and it didn't cause any breakouts for me. The only drawback is that Beauty Shot did increase the oiliness on my skin. My skin is oily-combo, so it got pretty slick pretty quick. However, it was pretty easy to solve. Directly after applying the Beauty Shot, simply blot the skin with a rice paper/oil blotter, apply setting powder, and you'll be good to go. This product is ingenious!
