In a recent side by side comparison test of the top six pore minimizing and refining gels and serums by the Good Housekeeping Research Division, Murad T Zone Pore Refining Gel came out on top. It's not hard to understand why either.
In my opinion its because it lists glycolic acid as one of its primary ingredients. Glycolic acid is a very effective chemical based exfoliant, as is another one of its ingredients salicylic acid.
So what you have here, is basically a qualified exfoliant with a handful of stabilizers, emollients and organic plant extracts thrown in for good measure. However; there is just one important thing to consider.
That is that the more effective an exfliant is, that more apt it is to cause irritation and the fewer times you can use it per week. Keep this in mind because exfoliants basically function to dissolve away skin cells.
Another thing I found when researching this products is that as is the case with so many other skin treatment products of this type, I did run across a fair share of misinformation that ranged from over-hype to out and out untruths.
As an example a few adds that I found online claimed that it contained retinol and that it could stimulate new skin cell production. The fact is that it contains “no” retinol.
Also as far as skin cell production is concerned, it's a common exaggerated claim that you see with all to many skin care products. Your body just doesn't work that way.
As far as price is concerned though, I do think that at around $40 for a 2 oz spray bottle, it is a little steep. But then again it is rated number one by Good Housekeeping. Also all its competitors are very similarly priced.

This product was definitely not worth the money for me. I started breaking out really bad after I started using this. It seemed to clog my pores, not shrink them. I finally returned it and had to take a store credit instead of a refund, and the credit wasn't even for the full amount!!! Not happy with this purchase experience at all.

I first read in our newspaper beauty product section that Murad Vitalic T-Zone Pore Refining Gel (2 Treat/Repair) 50ml/2oz is very effective. Though I'm over 50, I still have issues with my nose pores so decided to give it a try. Almost immediately I noticed a difference! The price seems high, but a little bit goes a long way! I decided to use it on other areas of my body with little pimple issues and it works on them, too. Well worth trying.
