Few weeks ago, I was emailed by B.liv team to try one of their product, Off with those heads.
This product is specialized to remove blackheads and whiteheads. Also, to reduce large pores size.
Sounds interesting?

Let's jump to my review..
Packaging
This product comes in plastic bottle. Eventhough I prefer it to be made from glass (to looks more classy), but the materials they use for the packaging is good (doesn't made from cheap type of plastic). From the bright side, this item is light and easy to fit in your skincare bag.
Once you open the cap, there's a pump and the liquid will come.
Scent
The scents is nice and doesn't stings so I think you don't need to worry about it~
Also, rather than having particular scent, actually the cooling feels stands the most.
The first time I apply, it kinda stings my eyes. However it doesn't happen on my next application.
Texture
It's designed as serum-type, so you can apply it easily. When it comes out, it looks like gel, but actually it's watery.
Below is my before and after picture after using this product for 2 weeks (I use it frequently every night).
*Actually if you use it every morning and night (as directed), the result might be better than mine.
On before picture, I took the photos 1 day after using porepack. I don't have any whiteheads but I have many blackheads on my nose and my pores are kinda big. Eventhough I have normal skin face type, but my T-zone are dry (especially in nose area).
On after picture, my skin is improving. I have few blackheads, but it can be get rid easily by gently wipe my nose after washing my face. Therefore, I don't have to squeeze anymore to make the blackheads comes out.
I also feel that my nose now creating enough oil so that my nose aren't dry anymore and my pores are getting smaller.
**note:
Result might differ for people with different skin types with me.
I'm not sure for the result with people who have oily skin types. Also, since I don't have whiteheads, I don't know if this product could removes whiteheads. You may refer to other reviews for better understanding :)
