As promised, here's the Tangs Beauty Box Review for y'all.

I am blessed with uber oily skin and large pores on my cheeks and nose. Unfortunately, there's no way I can say goodbye to them permanently. All I have to do is to hide them. Yeap! The POREfessional is my current fave. I love to wear it under makeup. 

Uber impressed with my first experience using The POREfessional and now I can't live without it.
