did you know that its not skin care that minimize pores they just clean them and that makes it seem that its smaller it water that do it hot water opens your pores and cold water close it so when you clean your face just pat it wit cold waterWhat is the best skin care to minimize pores?
The most effective products will have at least a 8% to 15% concentration of glycolic acid in them or 1% to 2% of salicylic acid for more oily skin types. You'll need to check out the ingredient labels to be sure that you are getting something with enough active ingredient to be effective.
Any product that includes a good percentage of retinol is also excellent.
As a home remedy, dampen a plain aspirin and rub it over the enlarged pores. Aspirin is a salicylic acid which will help to shrink the pore size.
All of these options will also help to prevent acne outbreaks and will effectively treat many aging skin care issues as well.What is the best skin care to minimize pores?
For starters, if no OTC skin products for acne work, go to a dermatologist.(And don't forget to ask what type of skin you have, and what type of acne you have.) In my own experience(through puberty it seemed like i had severe acne, but it was mostly pustules. Recently, within the last two years, age 16-18, i've had mild cystic acne which feels even worse. Anyway, it has mostly cleared up because i took a tetracycline called doxycycline prescribed by my derm. However, b/c my insurance ran out, i had to resort to alternatives. So before i bought anything, my acne started to reoccur. Then i read something that suggested i drink 8 or more glasses of water a day, get as much sleep as possible, take about 48,000-50-,000 IU's of Vitamin A (Less than $4 a bottle), and take Vitamin B(Pantoth, B-12, B5..) including them all, and nightly, either apply full-strength Tea tree oil or diluted to the skin. Vitamin A for oilyness, big pores, acne breakouts, and to lessen severity. Vitamins B for combating stress caused externally as well as hormonal fluctuations caused by too much sugars or refined carbs(hence, extreme spikes in blood sugar and stress hormones). Tea tree oil for oilyness of skin, healing of blemishes, preventing/ reducing breakouts, tightening and lifting skin, better complexion. Hope that helps!
cold water works if u dont want to use any products..
