Did You Know?
The butterfly zone of the face is the most sensitive pore zone and requires daily care. Due to its thin skin barrier and active sebum glands, pores can appear shiny and enlarged in this area. Our invisible pore tightener provides all-day protection and helps correct the pores in this area.
The Proof is in the Pore
Our first invisible daily finishing treatment is proven to seamlessly blend under makeup, providing a flawlessly smooth base as seen in our sponge test. Our formula provides all-day protection and minimises the appearance of pores, so that you can look and feel your best.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Rare Earth Pore Tightener be used on dry or sensitive skin?
Yes, our Rare Earth Pore Tightener has been tested on and is safe for use on sensitive skin. If you have a drier skin type, we recommend using our Rare Earth Pore Tightener only on the areas where you experience excess oil and visible pores, such as on the “butterfly zone,” which includes the middle of the forehead, nose, the inner cheeks, and next to the nose.
How can the Rare Earth Pore Tightener be layered with UV protection?
At Kiehl's, UV is a crucial part of any recommended daytime skincare routine. Our Rare Earth Pore Tightener is compatible and layers well with UV formulas. We recommend layering your moisturizer first, followed by UV protection, then applying our Rare Earth Pore Tightener before any makeup.
Can the Rare Earth Pore Tightener be used under and over makeup?
Our formula is an ideal base under makeup, as it creates a smooth skin surface and smoothing effect over visible pores. It provides continual protection against daily pollutants and pore-clogging particles throughout the day. However, it is not advised to be used over makeup.
Is the Rare Earth Pore Tightener compatible under different types of makeup?
Our Rare Earth Pore Tightener is highly compatible with makeup, as it layers well and will not pill or leave a white cast. For best results, we recommend that makeup should be the last step in your layering routine, after applying our Rare Earth Pore Tightener.
