pore filler

[baggysenior]

i would like to know if anybody knows of a pore filler. I have a few open pores on my face and i cant seem to find anything that actually fills them (temporarily under makeup) i've tried every product to shrink them, and none work so i guess filling them is my only other option. I've heard of a product from the states called Cle de Peau Translucent Corrector for Pores but i 'm not sure how to get hold of it. Anybody any ideas for a closer to home option? ideally it would work like a putty to fill the hole then put makeup on top? many thanks

Hi there! I use Clinique Pore Minimiser. It's not cheap, but you only need very very little, and it works a treat! It acts just as you said, by filling the pores, but it doesn't look cakey at all, and you can use it on top of the foundation if needed during the day. It also matifies. I couldn't live without the stuff! lol

As a wee extra to my post, I would just like to add that I have started using MaxFactor Miracle Touch foundation, and it is brilliant for achieving that "flawless" look when you have large pores. As it isn't oil free, it doesn't dry your skin out and leave you with cakey patches. It's really good, compared to the numerous "combination skin" foundation I have used before.

Estee Lauder do one as well but can't remember its name, they will be able to show you on the counter. Not sure on the price I had a sample from them

benefit doctor feelgood is also quite good, its basically a make up primer but it slides over your skin from a semi solid block but mattifies as it dries. you can use it on its own or put make up over or under it

Clarins do one which is fab, you can use it on its own or under makeup, I think it is called Instant Smooth and it comes in a small pot. Quite pricey but does the job.
