Maybelline's BABY SKIN Pore Eraser

Have you tried Maybelline's BABY SKIN Pore Eraser?



The physical appearance of this product first caught my attention when I saw it in the Maybelline Facebook Page. Who doesn't love products with cute packaging right?

I immediately checked the price and I was surprised that this product only retails for Php 299. Very affordable! :)

When I went to SM San Lazaro Department Store, I checked their Maybelline counter, good thing they had stock of Baby Skin Pore Eraser because I heard that the product is always out of stock in other Maybelline counters. I bought it during San Lazaro's 5-day sale but unfortunately this product is not included. 
Baby Skin Pore Eraser
Price: Php 299
22 ml



"ByeBye
Pores
Hello Poreless
Baby Smooth
Skin!"

(back of the product)

"Instructions:
Apply all over face or on concerned areas.
Suitable for all skin tones and types.
Mistake Proof.
No mirror need.
Does not clog pores.
So light, you forget it's on."

I used the Pore Eraser right after my moisturizer (Celeteque Sun Care Matte Moisturizer) dried. The Pore Eraser did not "erase" my pores rather it did minimize the appearance of my pores, it made my face smooth and made the application of my powder foundation a lot easier. The pore eraser controlled the oil in my face but only for a short period of time due to the excess oiliness of my face. I think this product will perform well on those who doesn't have very oily skin type.

"INSTANTLY
On contact, translucent gel melts on skin and instantly erase pores, imperfections, lines, and creases. Skin looks instantly transformed into a perfect smooth canvas.

The secret?
Cherry extracts, known for their antioxidant properties."



I've searched a bit about health benefits of Cherry extracts.

"Black cherry extract, for example, is used to prevent certain types of arthritis and reduce inflammation.
Anthocyanins in black cherry extract can also provide health benefits to those who suffer from arthritis by reducing the pain and inflammation of the disease.
Black cherry extract also has antioxidant health benefits. Some studies suggest that the levels of antioxidants found in cherry juice are five times higher than they are in other fruits and vegetables. "
