| melissasrn's Full Review: Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying ... |
Not long ago when I decided to try the new and improved Estee Lauder Clear Difference Advanced Oil Control Hydrator since the original version was becoming hard to come by, I also picked up it's sister product called Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial at the same time. Both are part of a new line of skin care products designed for oily skin types from this popular department store skin care brand, along with the blotting papers which I've not tried so far. Since large pores and oily skin usually go hand in hand, this facial mask sounded like it was just what my skin needed to help keep it as clear as possible. And with the warm summer months just around the corner, my skin needs serious help in staying both blemish and shine free. Read on to find out more about this effective new skin care product I'd easily buy again in the future.
~~~The Deep Pore Purifying Facial~~~
Those with oily skin types like myself know that using products like this new Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial is crucial to keeping large pores clear of potentially clogging debris. According to product advertising found at the esteelauder.com website: This delightfully refreshing, deep cleaning mask reveals a new clarity that's shine-free, radiant. Purifying natural clay is gentle on skin, tough on blocked pores--works deeply to draw out impurities and eliminate blackheads and blemishes. Oil-controlling formula includes our exclusive Absorbex Complex. Now you can give your skin a clear future--at any age--with the innovative science and amazing synergy of the new Clear Difference collection. It makes a dramatic, visible change in how your skin looks and acts, thanks to a multi-prong strategy to solve the problems of excess oil production. The lingering scent is somewhat perfume-like although it's still quite pleasant and light at the same time. And the creamy, white facial product is concentrated yet glides on smooth, so a little bit goes a long way. All it takes is a dime to nickle sized amount to cover my entire face with a thin layer of this luxurious skin care mask to pamper myself without having to set foot inside a spa. For this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial instantly creates a cool and refreshing feeling on contact with my skin. And in minutes, it turns bright white as it dries and then is ready to wash off to reveal cleaner pores with no shiny residue left behind.
~~~For Those Wanting Even More Product Information~~~
Here are more product details regarding this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial taken directly from the esteelauder.com website:
INSTANT MATTE...LONG-TERM CONTROL
Instantly, advanced mattifiers transform unwelcome oil into shine-free perfection. With continued use, skin is brought into balance, with excess sebum production a thing of the past. Breakouts are reduced, blackheads are banned, and skin looks and feels great.
THE KEY: ABSORBEX™ COMPLEX
Our exclusive Absorbex™ Complex is a gentle yet highly effective blend of natural marine algae. Along with other oil-neutralizing ingredients, the Absorbex™ Complex immediately eliminates shine--and with daily use, actually "re-programs" skin to produce measurably less oil than ever before.
COMPLETE SYNERGY
With Clear Difference, every formula reinforces and boosts the effectiveness of the others. Use the Advanced Oil-Control Hydrator twice a day, then the other specialists as needed...and enjoy a clear future at last.
THE PROOF IS IN
Clinical tests show a single application of Deep Pore Purifying Facial reduces oil by up to 93% instantly. With regular use, skin clarity is improved up to 51%, while the look of pores is reduced by up to 50%.
~~~Packaging, Price, & Availability~~~
Each 2.5 ounce (75ml) attractive green squeeze bottle of this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial can be purchased at the Estee Lauder counter of your favorite fine department store or online at places like esteelauder.com and gloss.com for $21.00. At first that seems quite expensive for just a few ounces of product, but a tiny thin layer is all that it truly needed to begin seeing the advertised results even after the first application. So if used only once or twice a week as directed, no doubt this full sized tube will last for several months at a minimum. It comes in an upright tube featuring a flip-top lid on which the entire product rests, and the black and gold Estee Lauder logo is found on the front. So request a sample of this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial at your favorite counter or take the plunge and order online and give it a try soon. But don't forget to try the new moisturizer listed in my introduction as well since these products seem to work better when used together.
~~~My Experience~~~
Using this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial is simple according to the directions for use: Apply after cleansing, avoiding eye area. Let dry for 5-10 minutes, then remove with warm water and washcloth. Use once or twice a week. My favorite way to use this new facial product is to keep it in the shower and let it do it's job while my conditioner is working and I'm lathering up the rest of my body. That way I can kill two birds with one stone while shaving a few minutes off my daily bathing routine. I apply this mask with my fingertips in a circular motion to cover the oily prone areas of my face. Once dry, this skin care product remains white in color although it's easiest to remove if rinsed off during the first 5 minutes or so. Otherwise, it dries completely and must be scrubbed off with a washcloth instead, which leaves my sensitive skin looking and feeling red and irritated sometimes. After use, my face feels noticeably softer and smoother and my pores appear somewhat smaller at the same time because they just received a deep down clean. So use this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial a few times a week to help control excess oil production without drying out the skin in the process.

~~~Overall Recommendation~~~
If you are a sucker for new skin care products like I am and tend to battle oily skin with large pores on a daily basis, then this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial is sure to keep the skin feeling soft and smooth while it reaps the benefits of having cleaner pores and less oil production at the same time. Use it once or twice a week for around 5 to 10 minutes tops after cleansing yet before applying your favorite moisturizer and you'll notice a difference in how your face looks and feels almost immediately. My skin is definitely clearer than it has been in years, although I do give my dermatologist most of the credit as I'm also using a prescription skin care gel at night. After several uses now, I can highly recommend this Estee Lauder Clear Difference Deep Pore Purifying Facial to those with oily skin types as it removes impurities deep from within the pores without drying them out or leaving a tight feeling behind. Good luck and stay beautiful :-)
