okay i have really big pores and you can like tell i have black heads what do you guys use to get rid of them???? like do i wash my face with something is there anything i could make at home or what?????? thanks ??OMG HUDGE pores?
start off by washing your face twice a day you can use a scrub made for poors and black heads neutrogena makes good products bior茅 also
you might want go see a dermatologist they have saved my faceOMG HUDGE pores?
get a facial, they will rid blackheads.
be warned if you do it alot, it will lose effect.
but if you do it every 3 months you should be good
Wash face morning and night. Use a scrub twice a week, concentrating on your problem areas. Try a mud mask once a week. And after getting out of the hot shower or washing face with warm water you can sqeeze them. (make sure not to scratch skin though) you should not bleed with a blackhead.
huge pores suck. use a cleanser daily, but instead of drying your face an not thinking much about it, get and ice cube and rub it all along your face until it melts. open pores are what cause acne. it gives a chance for your pores to become dirty. especially at night. and maby try a good facial mask and wear it to sleep. just a thought. good luck!
you can squeeze the black heads out thought they might bleed

Do your pores ever go away?
seriously do they ever go awayDo your pores ever go away?
no, that is how your body gets rid of sweat. why do you want to get rid of them anyway?Do your pores ever go away?
I have been using the Avon microdermabrasion for one week for my pores and I'm already getting compliments. But, I'm a skeptic by nature so I'll give it a few weeks and hope it will make my pores shrink nad have more youthful skin. So you can give that a try.
Your pores are part of your skin's structure. They will never go away, and you wouldn't want them to, as they allow you to sweat and cool yourself. You can minimize them, but never rid yourself of them. Everyone has them, so don't worry.
nope everyone has em, but some ppl have them bigger than others, also you can get them to appear smaller by using a variety of face cleansers, creams. you should try Origins line of Modern Friction.
absolutely not thats like asking if your eyes ever go away but there apperance can be minimized =]
Nope they are with you forever.
Good luck,
Sophia

Clogged Pores?????
I'M OVER 50 AND DAILY, MY LARGE POURS ON MY NOSE FILL AND I HAVE TO PUSH OUT GOBS OF WHITE STUFF. IF YOU JUST TOUCH MY NOSE IT WILL RELEASE THE WHITE STUFF TOO. I'M SO GROSSED OUT. THIS HAS BE HAPPENING FOR YEARS.
I AM OILY AND REALLY ONLY WASH MY FACE 1 OR SOMETIMES TWICE A DAY. I ALWAYS HAD BAD ACNE WHEN I WAS YOUNG, AND I STILL GET BLACKHEADS, BUT NOTHING LIKE THE CLOGGED POURS THAT I DEAL WITH EVERYDAY. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME???Clogged Pores?????
seek professional help!!! they'll know what to do.Clogged Pores?????
Try steaming open your pores, by filling a bowl with water and then putting a towel over your hear so that the steam doesn't escape, after you have steamed open your pores, clean them with an instant foaming cleanser, i like Caudalie. Then close your pores by rinsing your face in ice water.
Clogged pores are caused by a build up of dead skin cells which often stick to dry skin, so I also suggest using a moisturizer one a week, be sure to find one specifically for use on your face.
There are also some great buffing creams that are on the market that may help.
Also, drinking carrot juice will clear and prevent any blackheads or breakouts that result form having clogged pores.

INGREDIENTS

All Dr. Wexler products are fragrance-free; if you detect what you perceive to be a fragrance, it is actually a masking agent such as chamomile or birch that is included to “mask” the natural odor of the formula.
2) Do any of these products contain gluten?
Our products are not formulated to contain gluten. While none of the products contain grain ingredients, alcohols used in products (e.g., benzyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol, SD alcohol) can be derived from a grain source which may contain a minute unintentional source of residual protein.

12) What are the moisture active spheres in the NO-INJECTION LIP PLUMPER? How do they work?
They are marine moisture activated spheres that swell and plump as they come in contact with moisture.
TARGETED SOLUTIONS
1) I have dark circles and puffiness under my eyes – are there products that can help correct these?
There are two products that will address your concerns:
UNDER-EYE BRIGHTENING CREAM visibly lightens dark circles with haloxyl de-pigmenting peptide and vitamin C skin-brightening complex. Our formula has been clinically proven to instantly brighten with optical diffusers and to visibly lighten dark circles.
DE-PUFF EYE GEL quickly reduces visible under-eye bags and puffiness with fortified yeast complex. Our formulation has been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of under-eye puffiness and firms the sink around the eye area.
2) Will these products help fade my scars and/or pigmentation?
SPOT DAMAGE LIGHTENING SERUM is a concentrated complex that rolls right onto problem areas for targeted fast repair and a more even complexion. It diminishes age spots with 2% hydroquinone – dermatology’s most effective skin lightener.
This used in conjuction with our SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER SPF30, and daily exfoliation with either our EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM or our RESURFACING MICROBRASION TREATMENT will provide maximum benefit.
USAGE
1) Can these products be applied around the eyes and mouth?
Refer to the individual product information for detail usage instruction and precautions. Those that cannot be applied around the eyes or mouth are clearly marked.
2) Do I have to put the products on in a particular order?
The treatment routine is based on the four step process of “cleanse. exfoliate. restore. moisturize”. The MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM is almost always applied after the exfoliation process and before moisturizing. (Exception: for those with Acne-Prone Skin, the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM should be applied at night after using the ACNOSTAT™ OVERNIGHT ACNE REPAIR LOTION).
3) Should the moisturizer be put on before or after applying foundation?
A moisturizer should be applied before your foundation.
4) Should a man shave before or after he uses the regimen and how long should he wait?
It depends on which exfoliating system he uses. For the RESURFACING MICROBRASION SYSTEM, use Step 1 (Resurfacing Cream) prior to shaving to soften the beard, and loosen ingrown hairs. Shave and follow with Step 2 (Intensive Hydrator). For the EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM, use in the evening when not shaving, so that freshly exfoliated skin is not exposed to the 10% glycolic ingredient.
5) For the Acne regimen, in what order should the products be used?
AM
ACNOSTAT™ DAILY ACNE CLEANSER
MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM
OIL-FREE HYDRATOR SPF 30
PM
ACNOSTAT™ DAILY ACNE CLEANSER
EXFOLIATING GLYCO PEEL SYSTEM
ACNOSTAT™ OVERNIGHT ACNE REPAIR LOTION
MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM
TARGET
ACNOSTAT ACNE SPOT TREATMENT (to be used as needed in the morning or at night instead of Acnostat ™ Acne Overnight Repair Lotion
6) Is it normal when starting the system or using a product in the system to experience dryness, breakouts, red spots, or a pinking of the skin? If so, when should that go away or how long should I continue using the products?
Any significant change in you skin care routine can result in transient changes in your skin as it adjusts. These products have been extensively tested for safety and are not expected to result in adverse skin reactions under “use as directed” conditions. As with any performance skin care product, there may be a small number of individuals who do not tolerate its use. In those instances, we suggest that you discontinue use if irritation develops and persists.
7) How soon should I expect to see results?
Clinical results are product dependant. Refer to your product information for details. Although individual results may vary, clinical testing has shown that visible results are expected within 4 weeks of use on the average. Consistent use of the products for longer periods is expected to result in further improvement. However, if you find that our products have not met your needs, we will be happy to accommodate you with our money-back guarantee.
8) Is there an age recommendation for these products or is it made for both teen and adult skin?
These products were clinically tested with healthy adults, aged 18 and up.
PRODUCT SPECIFIC
1) The package says the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM has professional strength MMPI. Is there a %?
Our proprietary MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM formulation contains the highest percent level of MMPi technology found in any of our formulations. It is also the purest form of MMPi clinically shown to diminish visible signs of aging.
2) What are the benefits of the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM?
The MMPI SKIN REGENERATION SERUM is clinically proven to firm skin, visibly improve skin’s surface inside and out using a professional strength anti-aging solution; it will help diminish the appearance of lines, the sink and the sag. It is able to dramatically increase skin’s elasticity. It actually works to help halt the harmful effects of existing MMPs while diminishing the formation of new ones, resulting in younger-looking skin.
3) Can the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM be used as a moisturizer alone?
The MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM is a problem solution product therefore it is not intended to be used as a moisturizer alone, although individual needs vary. We always recommend using a moisturizer with an SPF after applying the Serum.
4) Is the MMPI SKIN REGENERATING SERUM oil -free?
Yes.
5) Can the SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER SPF30 be used in other areas a customer has age spots besides those specified on the directions (exa. hands)?
In clinical testing, the SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY MOISTURIZER formulation has been shown to significantly brighten the appearance of skin on the face, however we have no reason to believe it would not provide brightening benefits if used elsewhere on sun exposed skin.
USAGE WITH OTHER DERM PRODUCTS
1) Can patients on another skincare regimen prescribed by a dermatologist use these products, for example, Retin A?
We recommend that you consult with your Dermatologist.
2) Can I use just one (or some) of the products in the line with my own skin care regimen?
For best results, the products in the Dr. Wexler line were designed to be used together in the described regimen; however, each of the products was tested individually and can be used with other skin care routines. Please review the details in the product information for proper skin care advice.
SPECIFIC MEDICAL CONDITIONS
1) Can a pregnant or nursing woman use these products?
We have taken great care to ensure our products are safe through extensive evaluation and clinical testing but we recommend that you consult your physician prior to using any new products if you are pregnant.
2) Are there any known products/medications/vitamin/supplements that a customer would not want to use when using the system (or vice versa)?
There are no expected supplement and/or drug interactions expected with use of these topically applied cosmetic and OTC products.
3) Will these products work with my rosacea / exzema ?
Although Rosacea and Ecezema are medical conditions, we have developed products specifically for use with sensitive skin types. Please refer to the “Recommended Regimen by Skin Type” section. For example, our SKIN QUENCHING CALMING MIST provides specific benefit to people with the redness and inflammation associated with Excema and Rosacea. This product will provide symptomatic relief, but will not cure the condition. To cure this condition, you should seek the treatment of a qualified physician.

Clogged Pores????......?
what would be the best facial cleanser to buy for clogged pores, that will minimize them as well...And a good moisturizer that wont cause break outs??Clogged Pores????......?
First of all, I suggest that you go see a Dermatologist so they can tell you what is the best to use for your skin type. My doctor told me to use Cetaphil Facial Cleanser and the Cetaphil Facial Lotion with Sunscreen SPF 15 along with it both can be found at a pharmacy drug store. The Cetaphil Facial Cleanser (which has been working great for me, my skin has not been dry and has cleared up since I have stopped using all the other big brands), is very gental and cleanses the pores without any harsh chemicals. it is created by the same company that makes the prescription acne gel Differin (which the Dermatologist suggests to use along with the Cetaphil Facial Cleanser if you have an acne problem). she told me to NOT use store brands that claim to fight acne and all of that like neutrogena, st. ives, ponds, loreal, clearsil, etc. because they all over dry the skin and causes the pores to over produce oils which causes the pores to clog up even more and cause acne. that's how they sell the product...your skin keeps clogging up, therefore you keep buying it.Clogged Pores????......?
I've found that alot of daily scrubs are very irritating because most of them have glycolic acid, which dries out your skin. One that I found that works and doesn't irritate is (Aveeno Skin Brightening Daily Scrub 5oz for about $8). Aveeno also has very good daily moisturizers depending on your skin type and how much spf you want. If you find the daily scrubs to harsh, you can always try exfoliating once a week. For the once a week routine I love (Mary Kay Microdermabrasion step 1 $30). The beads are so fine and leave your skin sooo... soft! I could have been a little more specific on my moisturizer advice, but not knowing your skin type makes it difficult. Sorry!!! I hope the rest helps.
well. first of all, before you wash your face, you need to open up your pores to get the deepest clean you can. you do this by Boiling water, and putting your face above the steam for about 10 minutes. don't get too close to the water though, don't burn yourself. that opens up your pores. and wash %26amp; mosturize with pro active!!! i know its expensive, but it reallllllllllyyyyyyyy works! trust me! and only do the hot water thing about once a week.
simple: you can clean your pores yourself...
start with clean skin.
step 1. fill bowl with very warm water...
place bowl on towel on a table.
with another towel..make a tent over your head and hold your face near the bowl...for about 10 minutes
your skin will now be soft enough to clean.
with clean hands, gently press your pores...do not squeeze hard...you just need gentle pressure.
no squeezing near your temples....
only your forehead area, chin, cheek and nose.
do this weekly.
since your pores clog, you don't need a moisturizer..your natural oils are sufficient.
remember to keep your hands clean for extractions and keep face washed 2-3 times a day.

Tabitha-
I have been using Arbonne - Re9 anti aging line.
They also make a regime for younger people (18-30)
I have samples of both if you are interested to see if it helps or your face loves it.
When you find a regime that works, stick to it or during trying out something give it a little time.
Each one of the above I have has a mask to try out.
Also be careful of the make up you use. All natural and a mineral based foundation is best -
I like Aveeno Daily Radiance Cleansing Pads and Murad AHA/BHA facial wash. Aveeno is the best bargain - 30 pads for about $7. One side is smooth %26amp; the other is texturized for exfoliation. Murad runs about $30 so I use it sparingly.
Neutrogena makes some good face masks - one is a clay mask w/ benzoyl peroxide and one is a gel mask w/ salicylic acid. I can recommend the clay mask but haven't tried the gel mask yet.
Haven't found a great moisturizer yet. Clinique's basic yellow moisturizer is good but pricey. The gift w/ purchase promotions kinda help justify the expense a little.
I have clogged pores so i use acne free it say on the box better that proactive i think it works GREAT!so u can buy this pack that is only 19.99 it comes with face scrub which is step 1 and toner step 2 lotion step 3 and this zit stuff step for and it will last u like 2 months i love and u can buy it in wal mart target k mart and places like that so hope u try it and if u try it hope it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have always had a problem with acne. I have really large pores and I'm very proned to blackheads. I don't mean to sound lame, but PROACTIV really works. It's about $40 for a 3 month supply and worth it. 3 steps, (1) facial scrub cleanser (2) pore refining toner (3) repairing lotion. Easy! Works great. I've heard that Wal-Mart has their own brand and works just as great. But I stick to the sure thing cause it works for me. You can buy pore refining toners in just about any cosmetic isle. This is what you need. It shrinks your pores but will dry out your face if you don't use something else with it.
Medicated Acne line from Bee-Luscious Cosmetics the foam wash and minimizing toner are incredible products and I highly recommend them. Its on beeroyalproducts.com
Usually I used a clay mask to suck bad stuff out of my pores. I've been using a pretty good Alpha Hydroxy mask from Walgreens, I believe that's also the brand name of the mask. I maintain healthy pores by cleansing my makeup off entirely with MACs Cleanse Off Oil then following with a mild soap like Dove to remove the residue. Steaming your face with a store bought device (bed bath and beyond!) works too.
First of all, I suggest that you go see a Dermatologist so they can tell you what is the best to use for your skin type. My doctor told me to use Cetaphil Facial Cleanser and the Cetaphil Facial Lotion with Sunscreen SPF 15 along with it both can be found at a pharmacy drug store. The Cetaphil Facial Cleanser (which has been working great for me, my skin has not been dry and has cleared up since I have stopped using all the other big brands), is very gental and cleanses the pores without any harsh chemicals. it is created by the same company that makes the prescription acne gel Differin (which the Dermatologist suggests to use along with the Cetaphil Facial Cleanser if you have an acne problem). she told me to NOT use store brands that claim to fight acne and all of that like neutrogena, st. ives, ponds, loreal, clearsil, etc. because they all over dry the skin and causes the pores to over produce oils which causes the pores to clog up even more and cause acne. that's how they sell the product...your skin keeps clogging up, therefore you keep buying it.Clogged Pores????......?
