NEED HELP!!! I have great legs but hate to wear anything that shows them. I have tried waxing, shaving, hair removal creams, etc. No matter how smooth my legs are, the hair pores are real visible. Does anyone have this problem and has found a solution? If so, I NEED YOUR ADVICE!!!Hair pores on legs extremely visible.........even after shaving!!!!?
I haev the same prob i have huge one s well what i do and it works is i use just cold cold water and shave like that.. as long as you keep alot of water on it it will not give you shaving marks...
It works b/c my friend told me about it and i used it the day of my prom and it worked goodHair pores on legs extremely visible.........even after shaving!!!!?
i take it your dark complected too? or remotely tan. I have this too and never really understood what the deal is with it. I can say that sunning helps, but what really seems to make them less visible is daily exfoliating and gradual self tanner covers them and evens the appearance of your skin color. It is just part of your skin, you probably have them everywhere but since you shave you see them mostly on your legs.
I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. Like you, I've tried all different kinds of hair removal methods thinking it was the cause. What I've discovered is that exfoliating really helps AND tanning. I don't like to lay out in the sun or use tanning beds because I don't want the ';leathery'; look when I get older. So, I use a tanning lotion at home. You can also get a really good spray tan at a salon. I've noticed the pores are hardly visible now. Good luck!
I'm naturally very pale and don't like to sunbathe (I'd like to not look wrinkled when I'm older) so my pores on my legs always showed really bad. Recently I've been getting spray tanned at a salon and also using gradual tanning lotions at home. It looks really natural as long as you dont try to go too dark and I no longer have any problems with my pores showing too much.
Hope it helps!!!
From my own experience and friends I've found that this only happens to very light-skinned women, I don't know if you are
but my pores don't look that big after I've tanned a bit. I do use an epilator too, maybe you should try them.

Blocked pores!!!?
its weird, but i dont know how it happened. i have blocked pores around the lines of my lips. like, the line where the skin of my lips reach the skin of my face - the pores are clogged. what can i do to get rid of them and does anyone know exactly what could have caused it?Blocked pores!!!?
the pores around your lips may be clogged because of the lip mosturizer you use on your lips eg. lip gloss, lip balm, vaseline etc...... maybe to stop them being clogged you should changes whatever it is that use on your lips to somthing lighter of non-comogenic... meaning somthing that you can use that does not clog you poes...
hope this helps
good luck!
*best answer*Blocked pores!!!?
I don't know what could cause it but I recently found a miracle product that works to unclog pores!! Are you ready for this.... hand sanitizer!!!! I know it sounds crazy but my arms used to have clogged pores/hair follicles, and I started putting anti-bacterial hand stuff on them and they were different over night!!! If that doesn't work then the DR. can prescribe some anti-bacterial face wash that will clean your pores... in my experiences the hand sanitizer works just the same!! Good luck!!
GO TO THE DEMOTOLOGIEST OR GO TO WAL-MART AND GET SOME ASTRIGENT CALLED SEA BREEZE IT IS FOUND IN THE MAKE-UP AND BIKINI WAX ASLES..THIS WILL GIVE YOU A NICE STIMULATING TIGGLE BUT WILLN'T HURT THE SKIN..........THANKX HAVE A GREAT DAY GAH!!:)
U MAY BE ALLERGIC TO THE LOTION U R USING. IF U USE VASELINE OR SOME SORT OF GREASE....DONT!!!
THAT CLOGS UP YOUR PORES AND CAUSES BREAKOUTS. IF UR BREAKOUTS R REALLY BAD, DNT GET PROACTIVE. ITS REALLY STRONG ND CAN CAUSE REDNESS. CLEAN AND CLEAR IS NOT AS STRONG AND WORKS MIRACLES. IF U CANT AFFORD THAT THEN U CAN USE A HOME REMEDY LIKE MILK AND SUGAR..
I HOPE THIS HELPED.make up tips

White pores bumps?
Why does my 4 mnths old son has those white bumps on the bottom of his feet and on his legs and between?White pores bumps?
ah, now i was all set to tell you it was whiteheads and nothing to worry about as babies skin glands take a while to sort themselves out. But it sounds like your son has lots. Is he particularily sweaty/moist in these areas? could be whiteheads if so.
ask your doc if you are worried. hope someone can give you a better answer than me! I'll keep an eye out as I'm quite interested too...

Blocked pores!!!?
i have block pores, sometimes they are black heads, but mostly white heads, there not big spots but i have a few of them on my t zone, i can never get rid of them, ive got rid of my acne from the pill though.
i wash my face twice a day use several spot treatments and use different ones on different days.
what else can i do, does anyone have the same problem? ive tryed steaming but it brings out more!
thanks =)
..x..Blocked pores!!!?
don't use so many products on your face, sometimes using so many products has a bad reaction. Use a good face wash, and I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub and it works wonders on my face and body. My black/white heads and spots have been disappearing and my skin is very soft.
also make sure you use a good SPF face lotion for oily skin and a good night cream.Blocked pores!!!?
Blackheads are caused by partially blocked pores. The ';black'; appearance of them is not caused by dirt, but by the oxidising effect of air on the sebum (oil) in a blocked pore and the melanin pigment from the dead skin cells.
The best way to get rid of blackheads is to remove the cause of them 鈥?excessive sebum (oil) and dead skin cells. Use only products made with natural ingredients that are not too astringent. Harsh products can strip the skin of oil, causing it to produce more sebum which leads to more blocked pores. Don't be afraid of using cleansing products containing natural oils, such as jojoba or coconut oil to cleanse the skin. These oils are close to our natural oils, so they don't block the pores. Use a gentle exfoliating mask such as Miessence's Gentle Exfoliant every day to remove dead skin cells so they don't block pores. Just remember to be very gentle, over exfoliation can exacerbate the problem. Avoid products containing the following: alcohol, isopropyl mystate, lanolin, sodium lauryl sulphate, sodium laureth sulphate, propylene glycol, mineral oil and parabens.
Do not to try and extract them forcibly, either using your fingers, fingernails or a comedone (blackhead) remover. This can cause permanent damage to the pores and stop them working properly for ever. You may squeeze some of the blackhead out, but you could also force some of it even deeper into the skin, which may lead to infection (large spots, pimples or even cysts) or permanent damage. Touching your skin should generally be avoided to prevent cross infection.
diet
You can help reduce the occurrence of blackheads by eating the right kinds of foods -- this will reduce sebum production, increase good moisture in the skin and help the production of new skin cells. Avoid cooked carbohydrates and fats, replace these with fresh fruits, vegetables and raw fats (avocadoes, olives, olive oil etc). Read our article of the scientific link between diet and acne for more information.
make up
If you do wear make up, make sure any foundations and concealers are non-comedogenic and oil free so they won't block pores. Try not to apply make up if your face is sweating. Always remove your make up with a cleanser at the end of the day. Keep all your make up brushes and sponges clean. Wash them in mild shampoo once a month and let dry completely before using.

Huge pores :(?
I have huge pores on my cheeks and nose.. I was wondering if there was any local stores that sell products that could tone it down..Huge pores :(?
You said it yourself (pretty much): toner is the way to go. Clean %26amp; Clear or Neutrogena are good drug store brands.Huge pores :(?
i'd try a clay mask - like the queen helene mint julep mask that costs only $2-3. it's available at grocery stores and larger stores like walmart. plus, at that price, you won't be wasting a ton if it doesn't give the dramatic results you are looking for. also, try a primer under your foundation (if you wear makeup) to keep it from settling in and emphasizing those pores. while clearing up bacteria and cleansing will help shrink them some, for the most part their size is determined by genetics.
those commercials about proactive call when there offering the $20 offer. This really does work. cleanse, tone medicate and if you have dry or start to have dryskin moisturize with green tea lotion.
A little bit of rubbing alcohol once a day, or once every two days depending how dry or oily your face is, should help tone it down. Washing your face daily will also help.
Toner has a lot of alcohol in it (you could buy toner if you wish), but rubbing alcohol is MUCH cheaper.
These are the masks that I use for my large pores. They look so much better since I started using these recipes.
Papaya mask/exfoliant
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!!)
Baking soda microdermbrasion/exfoliant recipe
Make a paste with baking soda and water, then gently rub on face and rinse.
Sea salt glow (my favorite!)
Make a paste using olive oil, fresh lemon juice or water to moisten the sea salt. Apply to face and gently rub skin, rinse.
(olive oil is good for dry or normal skin, lemon juice is better for oily or acne prone skin and water can be used for whichever.)
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)

Well I dont know about products. But I wash my face with warm water (almost hot) then i rinse it with really cold water then I rub my face with ice.
