Neutrogena Pore Refining Toner visibly reduces the appearance of pores and refines skin to be clear, smooth and more even toned. This Alpha and Beta Hydroxy formula is dermatologist tested to deliver visible results. First, it sweeps away dead surface skin and refines rough, uneven patches. Then, it penetrates deep into pores so they appear smaller and less visible.

Skin is left feeling soft, smooth and refreshed.

  • Won't overdry skin
  • Oil-free
  • Non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)
  • Dermatologist tested

it works

I love this toner, it also has witch-hazel in it, which give it the thumbs up from me, its definitely made a difference with pore size and spots, leave my skin feeling soft and smooth, so refreshing. love it

If does have a bit of a alcoholic smell to it, and does sting if you get in on any sore spots, but it does seem to work, it comes in a bigger size compared to other bottles, and is a good price as well.

I recommend this for those with oily skin.

A GOOD TONER

I bought this because it contains alpha and beta hydroxy acids, which help to exfoliate skin and help with dark spots. This toner has helped to reduce the size of my pores. The product does smell of alcohol, but I wouldn't use it everyday as it could dry out the skin.Overall a good product if you could rotate it between a few other toners.

Tips: Don't use this everyday as it could dry out your skin.

I've had a change of tone!

I was never one to use toner. What's it for anyway!? It just seemed like yet another money grabbing skin care product that I don't even need. That was until I spoke to a professional recently about my skin concerns and she recommended I incorporate a toner in to my regime. So of course I took her advice and oh man I am glad I did!

I got the entire set of this brand. I got the facial wash and moisturiser to compliment this toner. I liked the fact that it refined pores because I have noticeable pores on my nose. I never knew what a toner did BUT now that I do, gosh have I been missing out! Or shall I say my skin has been missing out. I have always had dry patches and blotchy areas on my face so I had high hopes that this along with it's siblings would help me out in that department.

The bottle is quite simple and actually quite generous in size for the price I paid ($12.99). It is fuss free and gets to the point, all things I love! First I wash my face with the facial wash to remove any makeup and impurities on my face. I then come in with a twenty cent piece squirt of toner on a cotton pad. I smooth it over my face, concentrating on areas of problem like my nose, chin and forehead. After inspecting the pad I am both grossed out and pleased to see that the toner has removed any left over dirt and dead skin off my face.

After using this combination for the past 6 weeks I am over the bridge and half way to China about the results. My pores are visibly smaller and my face is fresh and most days oil free! Even though it was not my intention I have also noticed the laugh lines around my eyes are less crevice looking! I am overjoyed and can't wait to see what 3 months have in store results wise.

Tips: Use the wash, toner and moisturiser morning and night for best results

HOLY GRAIL SKINCARE PRODUCT!

The past few years I have never used a toner as I always thought it was a fad and just something to waste money on that was never really needed. I thought I would give this a go to see if it made any difference to my skin and it has changed my skincare game FOREVER! My pores are smaller, skin is more toned and even and way less breakouts.

I soak a cotton ball and dab this over my skin every day after washing my face. It makes such a difference I couldn’t recommend it enough.

Tips: Use after cleansing - great for people with larger pores and blackheads

Numerous Repurchases

I really like this toner, I use it after I've cleansed my face with the neutrogena naturals makeup removing cleanser, and follow it with one of their oil free face moisturisers. For me I did notice a minimal decrease the pore sizes on and around my nose - my number one trouble spot, and that really sold it for me. It has a nice cool and refreshing feeling and I always feel like my face is super clean and healthy after using it.

Tips: Always moisturise afterwards.

Great toner to use with the pore refining cleanser

This pore refining toner is great to use alongside the Neutrogena Pore refining cleanser. When applying the toner, it doesn't smell very nice, it has quiet a harsh sterile smell to it. The bottle is a decent size for the price, but I found that the lid broke off very easily which is a hassle because I can't take it away with me when I travel! Apart from these negative aspects, I really like this toner and have been using it for a few months now. I use a cotton pad to swipe a small amount all over my face. My skin feels instantly smoother, and I have noticed that my pores are now pretty much non-existent, whereas before using the Neutrogena Pore refining range..my pores were VERY noticeable, especially when wearing makeup! My skin feels so much smoother, and my makeup glides over my face so much better now. I would recommend this for those who have large pores and are looking for other alternatives for skin care.

Tips: Use a small amount of toner over the face using a cotton pad, I find that too much product causes the skin to sting a bit.

Pretty good toner :)

I haven't used very many toners in my life as I've only just recently realised the importance of a daily skin care regime but this one seems to work really well for me. It doesn't feel harsh on my skin and doesn't try it out like I've heard some toners do. I am yet to see any difference in my pores but other than that, I am happy with my purchase.

Tips: A little on a cotton pad goes a long way.

Really drying out my skin!

I purchased this toner a few month ago and at the start I loved it! I remove my makeup with a cloth and a makeup remover from Germany and then I cleanse my face with The Neutrogena Depp Clean cleanser and after that I use the Toner. My skin felt cleaner and my pores looked smaller. But after 2 weeks of using it day and night my skin started to be really dry and red straight away after I used it. So I stopped using it twice daily and used it once a day or once every other day! With doing this my skin looks still better but it doesn't dry it out!

So if you have very oily skin and looking for a toner to control this as well as your pores give it a try !

Tips: Only use it once a day or once every other day if you experiencing dryness!!!

great toner

Ive always seemed to make my way back to Neutrogena product cleansers, I find them to be the best for my skin. this particular one is great for refining skin and cleansing pores. I wasnt totally loving the product but I did enjoy using it, it did seem to make my skin feel soft and hydrated

Strong

I have recently started to use a number of the Neutrogena skin care products, whereas in the past I only used the handcream. This is one of the products purchased recently and although I have not noticed a difference in pore size I have found it effective as a tone albeit slightly on the strong side. I would definitely try the other Neutrogena products though.
