It seems that everyone is ALWAYS on the search for extreme pore tightening! I have found so many things that work really well, but this one, in particular, is VERY strong! Of course, there’s nothing you can completely do about large pores! You can only make them appear smaller and use primers to mask them, but this toner really helps keep them tight and much less visible! Plus, Dr. Oz also swears by this, which is another reason why I love it 🙂

SERIOUSLY AMAZING PORE-TIGHTENING TONER

1/4 cup rose water
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp witch hazel
5 drops almond essential oil (optional)

In a bowl, mix together ingredients with a whisk. Then using a funnel, pour contents into a bottle. After washing your face, use a cotton pad and wipe face with the toner. Focus on areas around your nose, and T-zone area. Use daily, and disregard leftover after 3 days.
