(Backordered) ASTALIFT Sparkle Tight Serum, 50g (Damask Rose)

[Review from October 2025] I've used it up and am raising my rating from 5 stars to 6. My nose pores really tightened after using it. ◎ I've recommended it to people around me, and they were also pleased, saying, "My pores really do disappear!" I think results vary from person to person, and it's a little painful, but I recommend it to anyone who's concerned about sagging pores and is willing to try it. I'll probably buy it again when summer comes. ↑ [Review from September 2025] Ever since I saw Tomori Arata's YouTube explanation five years ago about how this product works to combat the aging of the arrector pili muscles that tighten pores, it's been on my list of potential purchases, but since I only have one face, the list of serums I want to try has been overwhelming and I haven't been able to buy it. Maybe it's due to aging or the heat, but I started to notice enlarged pores on the tip of my nose, and after seeing it repeatedly featured on Kis-My-Ft2's Senga Kento's YouTube, I knew this was the next one. So I bought it from Suzykirei shopping. ◎ I wanted to buy the mini size because there were so many products I wanted, but Suzykirei shopping didn't carry them, so I went with the regular size. I want to try all the cosmetics I'm interested in, so I've been thinking lately that it would be nice if they offered mini sizes for everything. I think my skin is on the thin side, and when I use this, I feel a fizzy, fizzy sensation followed by a warm, stinging pain for a few minutes. But it's effective enough that I'm happy. I also noticed that my pores have tightened. Also, the skin around my nostrils, which tends to get inflamed, has peeled off, like after applying steroids. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but so far it feels like a positive. I'll update my rating if I want to change it after I finish using it.

The smell is quite strong, and I gave up after trying it twice. I don't think it's bad smelling. It's just a scent that I personally couldn't handle, but it smells like flowers. I saw some reviews saying that the carbonation was too strong, so I was a bit worried, but as long as you follow the directions for spreading it on your hands, it doesn't irritate your skin that much.

I bought this to tighten my pores. The popping foam felt fresh and refreshing. I sometimes felt a slight tingling sensation, so I avoided using it every day and used it about once a week.

I keep buying it because it's good for tightening and moisturizing in the morning. When I run out, my morning skincare routine feels incomplete. However, it does sting my skin. I was surprised when I first used it, wondering if it would make my skin red, but it didn't turn red or irritate my skin. I also have sensitive skin, but Astalift products in general seem to be fine. However, if you're unsure, I recommend starting with the trial size!
