    I actually purchased this for my boyfriend and I have noticed a big difference in the pores on his nose. He used to have a problem with big pores on his nose but you can barely see them now. It would be nice if it was just a tad bit cheaper but i'll keep buying it for him!

    I really like the feel of my skin after using this. The smell is not overpowering but the price is a bit more than I would pay. I would wait for a sale definitely.

    I got this product free as part of an Olay Facebook promotion a while ago, and it was the first cleanser that I used. (I usually just use a washcloth water.)

    I use a pea-size amount of this product and then massage it into my face. The smell is nice - clean and refreshing - and I quite like the slightly foamy texture of this product after massaging. The beads in this product are tiny, but I can definitely feel them physical exfoliating my skin, and if I massage it too hard into my forehead (where I seem to have little bumps that just won't go away, no matter what), the next day, that area becomes a bit red/inflamed.

    This product is definitely a time saver since it combines a cleanser and a scrub into one. However, because of the scrub component in this product, I only use this at night, since I've heard that using a scrub in the morning will make dirt and bacteria more likely to seep into your skin since the skin's just been physically exfoliated so it's a bit more vulnerable than usual.

    Although this product claims to reduce pores, I haven't noticed any significant changes after using this product regularly for a period of time, but that may be because my pores aren't very large to begin with. (Also, if you were curious, this product also doesn't do anything for blackheads. But sincethis product doesn't claim to reduce blackheads, I wouldn't hold it against Olay.)

    Overall, I quite like this product, but I wouldn't purchase this at regular price - maybe if it's on sale, and when I'm finished with my current cleansers. This product does its job as a basic, time-saving cleanser scrub, so I would recommend it to people who like multi-tasking products, or who would like to save time in their daily cleansing routine.

    for what you pay, this is a great product.

    it does what it claims to do. pores do look better. for a scrub, its not as abrasive...which is great. its not too drying.

    it has a pleasant scent.

    i have sensitive skin, so i do have the occasional outbreak when i use this. however, i've had worse reactions to other cleansers.

    I received a free full size bottle of the O’lay Pore Minimizing Cleanser Scrub from their face book page about three weeks ago. It’s available at most drug stores, Walmart and well.ca for about $9.99 for a 150ml size bottle. This O’lay scrub has ribbons that are a 2 in 1 foaming cleanser that exfoliates and cleanses deeply to get that deep down dirt and oil off of your face. They also say that with daily use it can help to minimize the appearance of your pores. You can see the white and blue ribbons of the exfoliating cleanser running all the way through the bottle that look nice, how ever I have found a bit of a fault in the design of this bottle. To get the cleanser out you have to pump the top of the container, but the spout where the cleanser comes out is way to close to the top of the bottle. This makes it a bit tricky to use in the shower, or even if you just have it sitting on the sink. You have to pick it up and with both hand hold on and then pump it. With the opening being so close to the top of the bottle the cleanser doesn’t pump out onto your hand very well because of this, it tends to roll out and down the side of the bottle making it a bit messy. Other wise I really like this cleanser. You can feel the fine exfoliating beads, or what ever you call them as you work this cleanser around your face, but it’s not harsh on your skin at all. It also foams up nicely giving off a light pleasant scent. After rinsing your face it feels very soft and looks great, how ever I haven’t found that it minimized my large pores any more then anything else that I have tried. Would I say buy the O’lay Pore Minimizing Cleanser Scrub? Yes, if you just want a nice scrub. Would I tell you to buy it because you want to minimize your pores? No, I never found that it did a very good job at minimizing my large pore. Over all I would recommend the O’lay Pore Minimizing Cleanser Scrub.

    this cleanser can be over drying if you have sensitive skin, but if you're one of the people whose skin is an oilslick, this is the cleanser for you. it may be too abrasive to use both morning and night, but it certainly leaves your skin squeaky clean and oil free. with continued use, i did see a decrease in how oily my skin is. a great product for summer.

    Have been using Olay Pore Minimizing Cleanser & Scrub for about two weeks now and I love it!!! After only a few days of using it I noticed my face felt more smooth and looked more clear.
