Hey guys ! This week has been a very busy one for me that couldn’t post anything! I missed you all. :/ Did you miss me ?
Anyways, besides those panda under eye circles, acnes, wrinkles skin, there is another major problem mostly people are suffering from and that is “Open Pores”! Yes..Open pores are quite a big concern nowadays. I have had a lot of personal queries asking how someone would go about shrinking their enlarged pores. These open pores not only hamper your beauty but also can make your skin look aged, uneven and dull? Open pores can further increase other skin problems such as skin roughness, blackheads, and acnes. Isn’t it? Well, enlarged pores are very common in oily skin but that if you think that they don’t strike on normal skin people, unfortunately, they do!
So what exactly causes large pores? Well, whatever factors they are, whether its because of skin care negligence, hormonal changes or genetic, there are always some remedies that can help reduce the size of the pores and make them less visible on the face. Although, there is not a specific solution that would get rid of them completely. However, there are some remedies and preventions, which can certainly help you in minimizing them.
Here the solutions are! Read on . . . .
-
CTM is the first step to avoid them completely.
-
Always choose skincare products according to your skin type. Don’t use harsh soap on your face. It can aggravate skin pore enlargement and lead to more acne.
-
Use cleansers and toners that are mild and enriched with AHAS (Alpha Hyrdoxy acids). Strong or harsh products can make your skin over dry. Result, your oil glands will produce excess oil which can clog pores and enlarge them.
-
Avoid Oil-based Makeup because the oil content will again clog your pores.
-
exfoliate your skin to remove any excess dead skin cells or dirt in the pores.
-
Protect your skin from the sun. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going out as it will reduce the enlargement and clogging of pores.
-
Let your skin breathe throughout the night, never sleep in your makeup. Also try to decrease the amount of makeup you wear on your face.
-
Always take a proper healthy diet. Have food with tons of antioxidants, vitamin A, C and E as healthier you eat, healthier your skin will become.
