Large pores?

I have really large pores on and next to my nose. Other than that my skin is good.





What's a great (and mean *great*) product that can help to shrink pores?





Any at-home concoctions would be great too =)Large pores?
my aunt says you should wash your face really well with really really warm water, because i guess the heat of the water opens up your pores more and you wash your face really good to cleanse them. ((try a biore pore face wash)) and then stick your face in something really really cold ((she said ice/ icewater)) so your pores can close shut.





i tried it once, it does work, but its wayy too weird and scary to put your face in ice. lol.Large pores?
Your pores probably look large because you are using products with an alcohol or sulfate base that dry your skin out and cause your pores to work overtime to re-produce the oils it needs, thus enlarging them. Try a natural soap like the ones at Bubble Shack: www.bubbleshackhawaii.com


They are all great for acne prone skin and for daily use. They're organic, free of drying chemicals, hypo-allergenic and 100% vegan. And they have really cool Hawaiian scents.
The first thing is to make sure to clear out your pores; they're like a paper bag - if nothing's in there they will shrink up (to a degree), but if clogged they will expand and look bigger. To unclog pores, exfoliate often and use a salicylic or glycolic acid based toner. There are also purifying masks or night treatments you can use 1-2 times a week to help. Check out these product lines: DDF, Dr. Brandt Skincare (great!) or Neutrogena for a Wal-Mart brand. Also, MD Skincare and Murad have great product lines just for large pores. The next best thing is to use a primer under your makeup - you can apply this only where you have issues with large pores. This will help fill in the pores (like a polymer filler) and make them far less noticeable. The best is Perricone Ceramic Skin Smoother (new product) or Smashbox Photo Finish primer.. All these are available at Sephora or ULTA type retailers. Also, be sure to keep the skin mattifyed (blot if you get oily) - the oil will make them appear larger. Give it a try and you will have good results before you know it!
egg whites - put the raw egg white on the area you're unhappy with, let it dry for several minutes, rinse off. follow with a light moisturizer, and preferably sunscreen.
It might not be a good idea to use 'at home concoctions' for you skin. It seems to me you have a combination skin. Pore refining masks, cleansers, toners and moisterizers are best to use for this problem. Remember to Mask once per week, Scub twice per week, Cleanse, Tone and moisterize twice each day. Drink a lot of water to help rehydrate skin. A vitamin C serum is also a good choice for refining pores.
These are the masks that I use for my large pores. They look really good since I started using these recipes.





Papaya mask/exfoliant (My favorite!!)





Cut papaya in 1 inch chunks. Blend/mash 2 or 3 chunks and store the wrest in the freezer. Apply the blended/mashed papaya and leave on face for 10-20 min. Use 2 or 3x a week.


The papaya may tingle but that just means that the papaya is working and it is breaking down dead skin cells to give that lovely glow and since it breaks down the dead skin it clears out the pores and in turn they shrink!!! (You may not see the results you want until you use it for a while.)





Egg white mask





1 egg white


1 tsp. cornstarch


Beat ingredients. Apple to face, let dry 10-15 min. Rinse.


(Tightens pores. Makes you look like you got a mini face lift!!)





Clay Facial mask





Choose the right clay for your skin type. (French-oily-acne, bentonite-normal, cosmetic or white-any, kaolinite pink-normal-combo, kaolinite white-dry-mature, kaolinite red-sensitive. Add plain water or floral waters or try wetting agents such as fruit purees . Make a thick paste of the clay. Apply the mask to your skin and let it dry for 20 minutes. Rinse well with warm water and pat dry. Repeat weekly. ( I use french clay)
