Before the pore size turns into an obsession and you should actively get involved to minimise it, you need to know that the pores are a completely natural part of the skin and that the perfect faces that we often see on the ads that never have visible pores and imperfections are absolutely unrealistic.
Causes of enlarged pores:
Pore size is genetically predetermined. Usually people with fair skin have smaller pores, and people with dark skin have more pronounced and larger pores.
Also, the type of skin plays a major role. Dry skin type is characterised by small pores that are often not visible at all, while one of the features of oily skin type is large pores.
Several other factors affect the pore size. Damage to the skin from UV rays reduces the level of collagen, which maintains strength and elasticity of the skin, and as a result , the pores can become more visible. The amount of collagen decreases and as a consequence of ageing, and older women often complain of enlarged pores.
Visible pores can occur due to mechanical trauma to the skin caused by pressing the pimples. Pupils and large pores almost always go into the same package, because blackheads extend pores.
Cosmetic help :
Pores will look smaller if you clean your skin so there is not the layer of dead skin cells left on your face. Hence the need for regular exfoliation of the face. People with sensitive skin should not exfoliate more than once a week. If you have thicker skin that is not easily irritated, you can do a gentle exfoliation scrub 2-3 times a week. When buying a peeling scrub, make sure it is delicate, because excessive irritation of the skin with rough peeling may lead to increased secretion of natural oils that could worsen the situation .
Reducing the visibility of pores and removing dead cells can be made using cosmetic products that has a composition which includes AHA acids ( alpha- hydroxyl acids).
If you have enlarged pores and acne, use products with salicylic acid.
Use foundations and powders with matte finish. When the skin is shiny, the pores are highlighted. Cover them with a matte powder.
