Total myth!!!
Some products make such a claim, but quite frankly the truth is ... you can't actually shrink the actual size of your pores.
So what can you do?!? You can minimize their appearance. Follow these 3 easy steps to make a huge difference in your appearance.
1. Cleanse: A good, deep cleansing will rid your skin of the makeup, dirt and debris that can clog pores. Clogged pores will gradually become distended (enlargened). ALWAYS cleanse your skin twice daily everyday.
Try: Flash Foam Cleanser a great cleanser for combination skin. It is filled with all sorts of good things for your skin. Fruit based enzymes for gentle exfoliation of dulling surface skin cells, green tea and vitamin B-5. ($34 Bioelements.com)
2. Exfoliate: Although your skin naturally sheds the dead cells that clog pores, this process can slow with age. Exfoliation will encourage this natural process to uncover a more radiant, clearer complexion.
Try: Quick Reļ¬ner, 2-3 times a week. Roughly everyother day. (Haha I totally punned that one.) Try exfoliating your skin at night to avoid any reddness that might occur. Quick refiner is a great exfoliator for during the Winter months when skin tends to be a little more delicate. ($46 Bioelements.com)
3. Treat: A treatment mask will target your problem areas, delivering much needed ingredients to draw out impurities, unclog pores, tone and revitalize your skin.
Try: Restorative Clay, once a week. Clay masks are awesome to have in your arsenal of beauty product remedies at home. Clay masks can be BOTH hydrating and purifying to your skin. Apply thicker to areas that need more hydration and thinner to the areas that need purifying. Taylor your at home treatment to your exact needs. ($35 Bioelements.com)
As always please ask questions. I love answering them and coming up with new topics to talk about.
