I need a good Sunscreen or sunblock that wont clog my pores?
perferably otc or cliniqe brands|||I like Neutrogena Dry Touch formula. It comes in a variety of SPFs, doesn%26#039;t clog pores, and doesn%26#039;t feel greasy. It%26#039;s the only sunscreen (when I use it) if it%26#039;s not the type already found in my moisturizor.|||neutragena - the best|||dont use sunscreen.sunscreen blocks ultraviolet rays.ultraviolet rays are responsible for creating vitamin d.vitamin d fights cancer.if you block it,you arent immune to cancer.most people that wear sunscreen are more likely to get cancer.check it out on the internet.
What does does bio-oil do? and will it clog your pores with the oil?
It helps with scarring (mainly caused by acne) and is great for stretch marks. No it will not clog your pores.
Whats a good facial scrub or anything that opens up your pores?
I need something to help my face a bit..|||Iam a Registered Nurse and I specialize in skin care and teen acne.
In my experience of 12 years alot of commercial store bought products DO NOT WORK!
Why do you want to open up your pores? Do you want to unclog the pores?
Your question is very broad and you need to get professional advice. I will explain why it%26#039;s a broad question!
Your age plays a role! How old are you? Do you always have breakouts?
Clogged pores can result from several factors such an increase in hormone levels. In males testosterone or androgens. In females, androgens respectively. The increase in androgen levels can stimulate the oil glands to become enlarged and thus more oil production is produced. An increased oil production can clog the pores with oil or sebum ( white thick substance) which cause the cell walls of the pores in the skin to breakdown. This process allows bacteria to form and thus breakouts develop.
If you are a teenager ( which I assume that you are) your hormones play a definite role.
The most important thing is that you need products that are AGE APPROPRIATE! Every age group has different products appropriate for them. If you are young than you need milder products as to not dry out your beautiful young skin.
The problem with commercial skin products is that they are manufactured for MASSES OF PEOPLE and are not specifically made for different peoples%26#039; needs.
Your skin type is different than mine and your age differs from mine so how is it logical that we both use the same skin product for breakouts. We need different strengths of cleansers and toners. Do you kind of understand what I am getting at?
Here is my STRONG SUGGESTION for you. I refer all my students and patients to this website:

How to treat open pores on face?
suggest natural homely easy remedies for semi oily skin type.
also tel me ..is applying cream or almond oil or desi ghee at night beneficial for treating open pores?|||If you are referring to closing up of open pores in order to prevent pimples, then here is the good part:
Rubbing cucumber pieces/ juice on your face will close them.
Rubbing ice cubes will tighten them..
But... The disadvantage is that they will help in closing of your pores only for around max 30 mins.. Not more than that..So all cosmetics claiming to close the pores are all crap..
If you all you want to do is to avoid pimples and not close ur pores.. then probably you can try applying multhani mitti/ fullers%26#039; earth pack on face or applying cucumber mask(grate and put the grated thing on your face for 10 mins) or applying lemon juice all over the face..
NO.. cream, almond oil, desi ghee,honey are meant for DRY skin types.. which dont have big open pores.. If you are looking for products for avoiding open pores, go in for Lemon juice, Fullers%26#039; earth/multhani mitti , curd, green tea etc..
Hope i helped..|||yours is a combination skin so this is what you need i have mention a facial mask for as well
Oily Skin - Generally your skin becomes greasy in appearance within an hour or two after cleansing, and remains that way throughout the day. The pores are usually enlarged. This is usually hereditary, but is manageable through proper diet and skincare. The usual method for dealing with this type of skin is to dry it out. This is just a temporary fix though, which just creates more of the same as the body tries to lubricate the dry surface. I prefer to treat this skin as more of a normal skin type, don%26#039;t dry out, and don%26#039;t add too much oil. Eventually the oiliness calms down. There are ways to reduce pore size naturally, which helps the overall appearance. Cucumber and Tomato will be good choices to reduce large pores (mash and apply, or mix with yogurt for more creaminess). Also clay masks (look for Bentonite or Fuller%26#039;s Earth at your healthfood store) will help to purify and tighten the pores. Just make a paste by mixing with water.
Dry Skin - Diet, heredity and age play a role here. After forty, most of us need more help in keeping the skin supple and moist. Make sure to eat a well-balanced diet, including some oil (fish oils are great), and give yourself nourishing facial mask treatments weekly. Avocado and Banana are good choices for dry skin. When mixing your masks, you may want to add a bit of a good, rich oil such as Avocado, Wheat germ or Almond. Egg Yolk is also a good choice for feeding your skin what it needs.
Honey Almond Scrub
This is a Honey Almond scrub with a Peppermint twist! This product will exfoliate your skin to help make it smoother and softer.
路 4 T Almond meal (or Almond flour)
路 2 T Jojoba oil
路 4 T Honey
路 5 drops of Peppermint essential oil
Pour the Almond Meal and Jojoba oil into a 4 oz cobalt or amber glass jar (preferably). Stir well. Then mix in the Honey and Peppermint essential oil. Keep stirring until the mixture is completely mixed.
To use: Cleanse the skin first. Apply about a teaspoon amount of the scrub to a moistened face. Mix with water to make it a more fluid application (do not add water to the jar, mix with the small amount of scrub in your hand). Scrub the skin gently in circular motions, letting the almond meal do the work (harder pressure will only damage capillaries!). Massage every square inch of skin except the delicate eye tissue. Remove with a warm washcloth. Be careful to remove every bit of the scrub. Apply a freshener or hydrosol with a cotton ball to remove any excess product. Finish by applying your moisturizer. Use about once a week to help keep the skin soft and smooth and relieve surface tension. This is a perfect treatment to have before applying a soothing mask.
I HOPE THIS WILL WORK FOR YOU ,

Oily skin- best skincare treatment to reduce appearance of pores, scars & discoloration?
Has anyone out there found that perfect regime of cleanser, toner %26amp; moisturizer that makes your skin less oily and reduces appearance of pores %26amp; scars? Plus I am getting older so moisturizer is increasingly important- SPF 15 is a must. PLEASE nobody tell me Proactive- acne is not my problem- I need something suitable for a 30 year old. Thank you!!!|||Arbonne products, they are wonderful! I have been using for over three years and cannot believe how much my skin has improved!|||The skin is the largest organ of the body and it helps other organs with eliminating waste. One of the best acne treatments is a diet which will help the body eliminate waste so that it won%26#039;t interfere with your skin and cause acne. If you are unhealthy on the inside it will be reflected in your skin.
It is the livers job to remove hormones from the body. If your liver can%26#039;t remove hormones fast enough you will end up with too much oil in your skin because hormones are like an instruction manual telling your skin to produce more oil. The function of the liver is also to get rid of toxins. If there is an over-load of toxins in your body, the liver can have problems removing hormones.
So what toxins concern acne sufferes the most? Mycotoxins. These nasty little chemicals are the %26#039;excreted%26#039; waste of bacteria such as yeast, and usually found in the intestines. Mycotoxins put a strain on your liver and you already know what happens when your liver doesn%26#039;t get rid of hormones!
Using diet alone as a natural acne treatment was not as bad as I had thought it would be. There are many foods that help the liver and help remove waste from the body.
What foods are good for cleaning the body? Two of the best foods are apples and psyllium husks. They both contain fibers that act like a broom and absorb and push out all the junk that%26#039;s stuck in your intestines, sometimes stuff that has even been there for many years! The %26#039;junk%26#039; is also the perfect breeding ground for the bacteria that produce mycotoxins.
And what foods are good for helping the liver? Beetroot. Beetroot is known for it%26#039;s exceptional liver cleansing properties. Another good food, or herb actually, is milk thistle. Scientific studies have suggested that certain chemicals in milk thistle protect the liver from damage caused by viruses, toxins and alcohol.
To cure your acne, you need to correct the problems inside your body that are causing your acne. No over-the-counter creams can do this. They can only kill bacteria on your face and help reduce the redness.
I used Acne Free In 3 Days to clear my face http://www.solvemyproblem.info/cblink.cgi?v=acnefree but what works for me doesn%26#039;t always work for everybody, so you should also consider alternatives like Acne No More which is a holistic cure for acne http://www.solvemyproblem.info/cblink.cgi?v=buk028959
It%26#039;s not important what solution you use, but that you do something about your acne now because people WILL judge you by your face which also plays a huge role on peoples%26#039; 1st impressions of you. I know, it%26#039;s really shallow, but that%26#039;s human nature!

When you come back in from the sun and your not planning to go out again make sure to wash it off before it can clog your pores. Many brands also make good pore shrinking masks that you can find at any ole drug store or like Target or BBW.

Any ideas on the best way to shrink large pores on the nose?
With a cotton ball put rubbing alcohol on your face and if you have any pimples take baking soda toothpaste (the white kind) and dab a little on your pimples if you have any. Do this before you go to bed and once ot twice a week use a very mild facial lotion that is water based to put some moisture back in your face without getting it oily again.|||toner... use a non-alcoholic one for lesser irritation..|||wash your faces every night, and use a zit creme if that does not work go to a pro|||u have to go and see a dermatologist and get special cream for that.
i have that same problem|||don%26#039;t know, but don%26#039;t use zit cream. It%26#039;ll only dry your skin and make it flake.

Is there a way to get rid of large pores on my nose? Do they eventually close up? ?
Large pores are usually caused by clogged pores and oily skin. You need to use gentle, alcohol-free and oil-free skin care products to minimize pores, reduce oil and prevent acne.
For years, I used an alcohol-based toner to clarify and and reduce my large pores but it never worked. I had an oily T-zone, huge pores, dry cheeks and pimples from such a harsh product.
You need to find a mild cleanser, an alcohol-free toner to clarify the pores and an oil-free moisturizer to get your skin healthy again. Once you find the right combination of products, your pores should improve in a couple of months.

Does large pores make your skin appear darker?
if you have large pores all over your cheeks will it make that area appear darker?|||Most definitely because of the shadows and dirt inside those pores.|||How was babby formed?

Does proactive work well for blackheads and open pores?
I use it. But just like the rest of you said, It works in the beginning, and after a while you start to see a huge difference. But you got to be consistant with it, and use it everyday. Other wise your face will break out so fast it looks like you never even used it at all.|||yes. i use it and it cleared my face in about 2 weeks|||I have it %26amp; it really worked in the beggining but know Im still using it and its not making a difference, but I still clear up but I didnt have severe acne|||It%26#039;s better to go on a dermatologits!...or aesthetics!|||Well I have used Proactiv, and well...It didn%26#039;t work for me. At first it was working great, then my skin started to go back to how it was before i started using it... The commercials did say *results may vary*... I guess that%26#039;s true.
Does a Microdermabrasion Kit really help with Large Pores?
How much do they cost and where do you but them at?|||Professional (in a doctor%26#039;s office) microdermabrasion is more effective in shrinking enlarged pores then at-home kits. Here is why: the high-pressure flow of crystals abrades the skin and removes all debris and excess sebum from your pores, while the vacuum of the microderma machine sucks away everything that keeps your pores from staying to their original size.
At home kits don%26#039;t have that suction function, so what they can do is exfoliate, thus unclogging pores. One of the best kits for your problem is Idealist from Estee Lauder. It costs around $50 and you can find it online or in most beauty shops. There are cheaper options (Neutrogena, Olay, Philosphy) and they might work very well for you (different creams have different results on people). You can find them online, in drugstores or beauty shops.
Hope this helps and good luck,
Joanna.|||They won%26#039;t shrink your pores but they can help clean your pores, thus making them look smaller.
You can find microdermabrasion kits at most any drug store.|||No Kristen, sorry to tell you it doesn%26#039;t. Pores may appear smaller for a few hours due to swelling(irration) of your skin.

Good luck sweetie.

no your nose will not appear bigger but your nose will be the forces when someone approached.
What do pores have to do with pimples?
My husband has HUGE pores. can this result in his acne? if so, anything to help minimize the best and clear his face up?|||Big pores have to do with oil production and that Can lead to acne: but so can dry skin. There are plenty of pore minimizers out there, but pay more attention to the type of skin he has. Oily, dry? Sensitive? I recommend MD Formulations (I%26#039;m a makeup artist, and use/recommend this stuff to all my clients.) Most of the product contains glycolic acid, which allows the skin cells to overturn faster (penetrates the skin, as opposed to proactive which only treats surface skin.) If you have the money, go for the sensitive kit. http://www.mdformulations.com/|||if dirt enters the pores of the skin, it may become inflame (lession) which is we call pimples.
i suggest you tell your husband to go to a derma clinic. and also make a habit of washing his face using lukewarm water before using mild soap then rinse it with cold water.|||my son has been using pine tar soap for a over two months now. it has really helped clear it up. he had it really bad. huge sores on his face, back and some on his arms and chest. you can get it thru your pharmacy. it costs about $4 a bar and a bar can last 3-4 wks.

pores are what get clogged and become irritated and infected, causing the acne.|||The bigger the pores the easier for dirt, bacteria and oil to enter the skin and get trapped to form acne. Tighter smother pores keeps your skin clean, clear and healthy.

How to stop Acne in its tracks:
======================
1. Liquid soap on a sponge is better than cake soap.
2. The alcohol is available from the hardware store
Acne is caused by oil clogging pores in the skin. Attack this oil source and acne will be more easily to control. Diet also plays a part so lay off the rich foods.
The oil comes from your scalp under the hair. It creeps down your skin to clog pores. This is why the face and shoulders get acne.
To get rid of oil, wash your scalp with a good shampoo for oily scalp/hair, massaging your scalp and rinse off the oil. You should do this at least 25 times a month, meaning shower every day. You may want to include using a special scalp medical shampoo say 2-3 times per month (eg anti dandruff).
Note the shampoo is selected to get rid of oil, if your hair becomes dry, then use a conditioner to suit dry hair. You need to find a conditioner to suit the consequence of showering every day.
Shower and conditioner your hair first, and then wash the residue off your skin starting from the face and going down. It is important that you shampoo your scalp before the rest of your body, so that the oil is removed from your body afterwards.
Alcohol is a great sterilizing wipe to clean existing oils from your skin also, as some of the oils come from the skin. But don’t overdo it as could dry the skin.
(as a guide I suggest only use alcohol after the pimple patrol below)
Severe Acne sufferers should see a chiropractor as neck miss-alignment can cause acne, especially along the jawbone.
How to stop Acne scarring:
====================
Find the volcano centre part of the pimple by rolling the shank of a pin or needle across the pimple. Gently centre it in a squeeze then using the sterilized pin, prick the centre of the pimple. You may have to prick 3 to 5 mm deep at right angles to the skin, depending on the size of the pimple. The idea is to lance the pimple, to make a hole for the infection to come out. Squeeze the infection out of the hole, just like a volcano erupting. Because the skin has a hole, it is not tearing and there will be no scarring as long as you haven’t squeezed too hard. Remember the idea is to make a hole for it to come out, so the hole has to be accurate and into the infection core.
Any pimples that are difficult hit it with an Acne cream and try again the next day.
Sterilize the skin with alcohol.
With skill you can find these volcano centres under the skin before they are really noticeable. I suggest doing a pimple patrol on Wednesdays so you are cool for the weekend.
A good psych is to say “Good riddance Freeloader” on each success.|||Larger pores are more prone to gather dirt and oil which results to bacterial infection which results either blackhead or pimple! Guys usually have larger pores but can take care of their skin the same way girls do... they need to wash their face often. Scrubs or other ways or exfoliating are also very important! Guys should put in as much effort to take care of their skin as girls!!

Will putting lotion on your face clog your pores?
My skin is really weird. In the summer it is really oily, and since I have Gym right now, that also makes it bad. However, I wash my face under water often. This helps a lot. I cannot use soap because that dries my face out really bad. After I take a shower, even if I don%26#039;t use soap, my face still dries out. Putting lotion on it helps, and I wash it off with water later. My face is no longer dry. It looks disgusting having a bunch of white, dry skin on my face! EW!
Anyway, as my question says, will putting the lotion on my face clog my pores, especially since I have an acne problem?
Is there a special, inexpensive product I can use instead of lotion if it does effect it? I%26#039;ve been watching it closely, and I%26#039;m pretty sure it doesn%26#039;t.
Help?|||yes... get a moisturizer. Lotion is not meant to go on the face. It has a lot of oil in it and will clog your pores. Don%26#039;t wash your face with soap get a face wash too.. I have one that I really liked called Dermalogica special cleansing gel.

How do you clean a pumice stone? (clearing out dead skin cells clogging its pores)?

oh! and then let the stone air dry until the next day
i hope this will be helpful to you !!!!!!!|||soak it in bleach and water solution, scrub it with a brush, rinse it good and wash again with warm soapy water.

I am a 24 year old female and I just woke up one day to see enlarged pores on my face? Is there any procedure aside from common astringents? or can anyone recommend a nice product they have tried on and showed effective results?|||Hard to believe it was overnight. Your makeup may be making them look bigger. The thicker the makeup the worse for any defects. You should always rinse your face and hair in cool water. It closes pores and hair folicles. Plus cool water gives you energy, warm makes you relaxed. good luck.|||Try a mask. An aspirin mask is a cheap one, you can make it yourself as well.

*This diminishes them in as little as 1 to 3 days. Uses a proven self massaging technique .Quite vigorously massage into skin. For best/fastest results do for 10 to 12 min daily (can be in two or three sessions). They will almost immediately start to reduce.(see testimonial below ##)
Use any oil. I have had great results using grape`seed, lavender.and cypress. Used by skin specialists to treat/cure acne.- as don%26#039;t clog, cause breakouts and they lessen skin%26#039;s oil production. Buy grape seed, cypress in some large supermarkets,Walmart and Walgreens.

Salicylic acid (found in most acne-fighting products and many facial moisturizers) from your local discount/drug store. If a facial moisturizer label says it has a BHA, it contains salicylic acid. Salicylic acid is an exfoliant that is able to penetrate the pore lining well, dissolving debris in the pore. Keeping the pore clear will improve the shape and appearance of it and help prevent it from getting even larger.

Hey, we%26#039;ve all had those days, and we all have different ways of dealing. Below, some proven pore minimizers in formulas that suit everyone%26#039;s fancies.
Best Cleanser: Sometimes it takes a one-two punch to knock pores out. Opt for Neutrogena%26#039;s Pore Refining Cleanser ($8) for a dose of smoothing alpha and beta hydroxy delivered via exfoliating microbeads. Once you%26#039;ve opened pores up and cleaned %26#039;em out, deliver the final blow with Neutrogena%26#039;s matching Pore Refining Toner ($8). The non-drying formula gives skin a balancing boost while making the appearance of pores a thing of the past.
Best Moisturizer: Even the oily-skinned deserve a good moisturizer, and Bliss%26#039; Steep Clean Moisture Lotion ($48) is it - keeps skin soft, and keeps oil at bay. The sheer formula is super lightweight and mattifying (killing the greasy pizza effect), and the retinol minimizes pores and keeps blackhead outcroppings from ruining your day.
Best Mask: Once-in-a-while pore crises like mine call for the breaking out of the big guns. I like to zap angry pores with a dose of Burt%26#039;s Bees Healthy Treatment Pore Refining Mask ($8), a mixable powder that lends a DIY air to the proceedings and allows for customizable treatment. The directions call for adding water to a tablespoon of the mask powder, but you can sub in yogurt to combat dry skin, grapefruit juice to banish oil, or tomato juice for soothing a fussy face. The base of the mask, French green clay, draws impurities out of their hiding places and sends them packing, no matter which mix-in you choose.|||i absolutely recommend clinique%26#039;s pore minimising gel. you apply it everyday for around 2 weeks, and you will definitely be able to notice a drastic improvement. i had quite large pores on my cheeks and after using it, my skin looks smooth and even. the bonus is that its not the kind of product that stops working the second you stop using it. i stopped using it for around 6 months and my skin still looked amazing.
if youre not able to find a solution for your pores, just think about this: how many times have you walked down the street and someone whispered %26#039;oh my god did you see the size of that girls pores?%26#039; its the sort of thing that youll only be able to notice when your face is pushed up insanely close to the mirror, so dont worry too much about it.|||Large pores and oily skin are reactions to skin harming products. My skin became healthy by stopping use of products.
You can safely, quickly and permanently reduce pores by massaging using an essential oil - olive, sweet almond and grape seed oil are excellent. They have been used by specialists to treat/cure acne as they lessen skin%26#039;s production of oil, they do not clog or cause breakouts (See USER%26#039;S happy response below ***).
First tighten skin by opening mouth 3/4%26quot; and pulling lips firmly back against teeth. Use finger tips and front of fingers and sometimes palms depending where on face you massage. Do forward and back massage - a circular motion will not work. Do over and over firmly and quite vigorously. For quickest results do each day for 15 to 30 min.(Doesn%26#039;t have to be all in one session).
Pores will greatly minimize in as little as 2 to 3 days. If massage entire face you will quickly have a smooth, radiant, tight, totally blemish free, healthy skin and you will not need to use any other product or treatment ever again - not even moisturizers. Oils are perfect natural moisturizers.

How can i tighten large facial pores with homemade natural remedies?
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)

Then get iced water and a piece of cloth, then wet the cloth with the iced water put on your face leave for 3 mins. Hope this helps|||take a tomato and place it in your freezer for two hours , when it becomes really cold then cut it into two halves and then rub it on your face for ten minutes. then leave it for another ten minutes then rinse your face with tap water.

How do i minimize my big pores?
the pores in my nose are pretty noticible and they dont take to cover up that well. i was looking at sephora and they have this product called %26quot;pores no more%26quot; and it had countless reviews on how good the product worked. the only thing is it%26#039;s about 50 dollars and i dont have the money right now. any ideas on how to reduce them or make them less noticible untill i can buy the product?|||try this traditional method.
take the white eggs and mix it with lemon juice.
put it on your face until it is dry.
wash it off with warm water.
do this 2 times a day and you can actually see the difference on your first apply.
if you have dry skin, replace the lemon juice with honey.
honey can also be put on the lips to make it more red-der.|||Don%26#039;t spend 50 dollars!!!! Spend about 3 and buy witch hazel (I know, weird name) at you%26#039;re local grocery or drug store. It minimizes pores, as it is a natural skin toner. Make sure you apply with cotton balls. Oh, and before you apply it, wash your face (which you should be doing twice a day, with soap) and rinse with cold water. That always shrinks pores too. Good luck!|||Apple cider vinegar! Get the unfiltered natural kind from a health food store. IT HAS TO BE UNFILTERED!|||i think there is a cream for that|||ice cubes work for me :)

Does liquid foundation clog up your pores?
Is it bad for your skin?|||Yes, liquid foundation DOES clog your pores. Which is why I always suggest mineral foundation in the powder form to people, it doesn%26#039;t clog you%26#039;re pores as much, and much healthier for your skin. (lots of good minerals in it!)
But if you like you%26#039;re liquid foundation, make sure to take it off every night before bed, and wash your face well. Once a week exfoliate w/ a facial scrub and try and use a face mask every now and then.|||any foundation is going to clog up your pores.
as long as you apply it onto a clean face with clean fingers or sponge and wash it off properly when you get home, it won%26#039;t matter.
if anything, try and not use foundation... try a tinted moisturiser or someting (:|||yes..try mineral foundatiom

Does neutrogena body wash unclog pores?
I use neutrogena body clear body was (grapefruit) and it does help with acne, but I have A LOT of clogged pores on my chest and back, will it also unclog these pores? If it doesn%26#039;t will it help if I take hot showers? Any other suggestions and how long will it take? Thanks!|||I%26#039;ve heard hot water opens your pores, and cold closes them. So when you use to, rinse your back with hot water, apply the scrub, leave on for a minute for so, then rinse with cold water. Make sure you get right out after the cold water, or the hot water will open them back up again. This will probably unclog the pores. And my acne scrub took about a month to clear up, depends how bad your skin is. Hope i helped :)
How Do I Unclog My Pores?
I can`t seem to keep my pores unclogged ! Any ideas?|||Steam them to clear them out and then use a good toner that suits your skin type. Cleanse and tone every day.|||there%26#039;s a lot of creams and lotions at your local drug store.
and steam helps(shower).|||Have you tried facial cleansing wipes?|||Basic facial,
first cleanse your face then exfoliate Then fill a bowl with steaming hot water and put your face over it and place a towel on top of your head stay there for ten minutes the heat and humidity will open your pores (if you don%26#039;t have cleanser ,exfoliate just splash cold water on your face then use a tone)then grab a face mask and put it on your face and leave in for 20 minutes then once that is done moisturize this a really effective pore unclog ger
1 Cleansing removes oil and dirt
2 Exfoliation removes dead skin cell and increases better circulation and cleans deep down your pores
3 The hot bowl of water thing is called steaming your face opens pores and gets the dirt out easier
4 the mask has lots of nutrients and other good stuff in it that will clean your pores but the basics behind it is that the mask hardens and dries up and it absorbs all the oil in your pores well it%26#039;s hard to explain but google how face masks work
5 moisterizing is a key essential in all skincare *** it returns your skin to its normal balance and if you didn%26#039;t your sebaceous glands (Thing that makes oil)will work overtime and will make your skin super oily and clog pores so it is a must.

Youd be suprised how much food
can and does effect your skin.
1. Stop drinking soda-or at least tone it WAY down
2. No junk food
3. No food that contains preservatives,additives,dyes
4. Stay away from hydrogenated and hydrolized oils
5. Eat fat( from whole milk, red meat, and yogurt)
6. Buy organic when you can, pesticides are hard
on your body and skin.
7. Dont drink tap.
8. Get enough minerals that includes sea salt
9. Get enough sun (yes honey, its good for you
10. No artificial perfumes, hair products, cosmetics, creams
and any of the sort. this Fs up your skin. Go to a
Organic health food store
if you do this your skin will thank you, go ahead
and clean it but remember your skin is a back
up for your liver. And if you are piling all this
toxic crap into your body, you will have oil or
acne ridden skin if not now eventually.

How can you clean your clogged pores if you don't go to get a facial?
You could get a clean towel, put some warm water in a plastic container, let it sit a moment, squezze some water out from the towel, and let it sit for a moment 1-2 minutes in your face it opens up the pores, you could either add a cleansing moisturizer wash it off, then once again put the towek in your face apply a mask wash it off with cold water so your pores would close again, this should cleanse out your pores, you might notice that pimples may come out but that is because all the impurities are coming out

How to get rid of enlarged pores?
i was looking at my nose and i noticed some enlarged pores..maybe or they could be scars. anyways got suggestions?|||Based on my personal experience, after a warm/hot shower/bath, I always rinse with cold water, to close the pores I do this everytime I take a shower/bath or even when i just wash my face.|||Could be pock-marks if you are a pimple-popper. Otherwise, just wash with warm/hot water and rinse with cold water. That should close them up a bit.
How do i treat enlarged facial pores?
This is the fastest, safest, low cost way. It%26#039;s amazingly effective.
This is a little known secret but by far the fastest, safest and smallest cost way. Many have used on Answers and swear by it.(See my many B.A ).Use any essential oil - lavender, grape seed, coconut - none will cause breakouts or clog pores or make skin oily - and simply rub them over and over many times. Best to do for 3 minutes several times a day. They will start to diminish in first two days and in three or four days they will be gone(or normal size)

I hope it helps
|||you can try a product with alpha hydroxy, like a peel, a lot of Oil of Olay and Neutrogena products have it added. If you%26#039;re looking for a more homeopathic remedy try this:
For 2 weeks:
lightly beat egg whites (1 or 2 depending on size of the area) with a small amount of fresh lemon juice (1 TB)
apply to face a leave until dried. wash face with warm water, and leave a lightly steaming rag on your face. (egg whites tighten pores, the steam will keep your pores slightly open for the next, very important, part.)
Next, take honey (1/8 cup) and coconut milk (1 can) (already mixed together and left in fridge over night.)
apply to face and neck while you soak in tub. Let sit for 10-15 min. The acidity of the coconut and the humectant in the honey will both soften and moisturize your skin without adding harmful chemicals. (will keep in the fridge for about a week.) Lightly wash your face with warm water and then rinse with cold water. Pat, never rub, your face and neck dry.
Do this every day to every other day and you will see results. I hope this helps!|||Technically you can%26#039;t eliminate them, the size is determined by genetics and how clean your face is. If you use an exfoliator every day or two it will keep the dirt from clogging them and making them visible. Keep washing your face with a cleanser that works with your skin.
I use Biore%26#039; exfoliator with micro beads, its gentle, but it cleans out my pores really well!!|||Pores are a natural part of your body and you can%26#039;t get rid of them, and it%26#039;d actually be a really bad thing if you could. No matter what the skin care product hawkers might tell you, no amount of astringents, pore strips, pore-minimizing this or that will ever shrink or diminish them. All you can do is keep them clear, which will in turn keep them less visible.|||One, you always rinse your face in cold water. That closes the pores so dirt won%26#039;t clog them. I have oily skin, and I have tried every product on store shelves. None of the worked very well so I searched online. Now, I use Cuticura soap. It does a great job because it has an antibacterial agent.

|||you can try a product with alpha hydroxy, like a peel, a lot of Oil of Olay and Neutrogena products have it added. If you%26#039;re looking for a more homeopathic remedy try this:
For 2 weeks:
lightly beat egg whites (1 or 2 depending on size of the area) with a small amount of fresh lemon juice (1 TB)
apply to face a leave until dried. wash face with warm water, and leave a lightly steaming rag on your face. (egg whites tighten pores, the steam will keep your pores slightly open for the next, very important, part.)
Next, take honey (1/8 cup) and coconut milk (1 can) (already mixed together and left in fridge over night.)
apply to face and neck while you soak in tub. Let sit for 10-15 min. The acidity of the coconut and the humectant in the honey will both soften and moisturize your skin without adding harmful chemicals. (will keep in the fridge for about a week.) Lightly wash your face with warm water and then rinse with cold water. Pat, never rub, your face and neck dry.
Do this every day to every other day and you will see results. I hope this helps!|||Technically you can%26#039;t eliminate them, the size is determined by genetics and how clean your face is. If you use an exfoliator every day or two it will keep the dirt from clogging them and making them visible. Keep washing your face with a cleanser that works with your skin.
I use Biore%26#039; exfoliator with micro beads, its gentle, but it cleans out my pores really well!!|||Pores are a natural part of your body and you can%26#039;t get rid of them, and it%26#039;d actually be a really bad thing if you could. No matter what the skin care product hawkers might tell you, no amount of astringents, pore strips, pore-minimizing this or that will ever shrink or diminish them. All you can do is keep them clear, which will in turn keep them less visible.|||One, you always rinse your face in cold water. That closes the pores so dirt won%26#039;t clog them. I have oily skin, and I have tried every product on store shelves. None of the worked very well so I searched online. Now, I use Cuticura soap. It does a great job because it has an antibacterial agent.
http://hocks.com/hocks-healthcare/hocks-鈥?/a>|||You can%26#039;t really do anything about it - it is natural and genetic.
Some people put an ice cube all over their face in the morning, as coldness closes up pores.
You can get pore-minimizing products at the store.. so try those.|||Visit you dermatologist and ask about Acutane.... it has some side effects that last about a months such as dry skin and chapped lips but well worth it! I have tryed many different things and this is the only one to help|||Try a clay/mud mask. You can find them in any store. Look for the ones that shrink your pores.|||you can%26#039;t. your skin will always be porous. |||toner. try the burts bees tomato toner|||A mattifying gel.
Clinique and Mark both make them.
I have spots, and my pores are HUGE ! i really need some help please ! :(?
I Use Clearisil Skin Pads, Toner, Moisturiser, And Exfoliate, And my skin is still covered in spots. :S are there any things i could do to get rid of them, like home remedies or anything ? HELP !|||This natural home remedy gives fast, amazing results. Safely and permanently reduces pores and rids face of spots by massaging using an essential oil - grape seed, almond, and cypress are excellent. They have been used by skin specialists to treat and cure acne. They do not clog, cause breakouts and they lessen skin%26#039;s oil production . They feed skin many healing and health promoting essential nutrients (See happy response below from Answer%26#039;s user). First tighten skin by tightening face muscles so that you will not be pulling or stressing skin. Use tips and front and sides of fingers depending where on face you massage. A circular motion will not work. Do over and over firmly. For quickest results do quite vigorously each day thoroughly for 10 to 15 min.(Doesn%26#039;t have to be all in one session). Pores will greatly minimize in as little as 2 days. Skin is always shedding and renewing. Massage forces skin to shed more quickly and a new clearer skin to emerge. Thoroughly massage entire face and you will quickly have a smooth, radiant, tight, totally blemish free, healthy skin and you will not need to use any other product or treatment ever again - not even moisturizers. Oils are perfect natural moisturizers and are much better, much safer than any commercial one.

%26quot;Omg, I%26#039;ve been following your advice and massaging my face vigorously with oil for the last three days and I see results already! It has made a HUGE difference in my complexion after just one night .Thank you ever so much..this could be the solution to my all my skin problems. I%26#039;d messaged earlier asking about the pores on my face. They%26#039;re very large and EVERYWHERE. I have a massive event coming up in a month. Could I do it twice daily to speed up the process? %26quot;

Use products that contain gentle skin normalizing actives such as Ginger Root, Azelaic Acid, Licorice Root. These ingredients will cause the body to produce less oil, thus normalizing the skin%26#039;s levels of natural oil without stripping the oil totally from the skin. You want some oil to help protect the skin. I will tell you it takes longer, probably 4 weeks of regular use of these oil normalizers to see a significant difference so don%26#039;t get impatient.
Also Tea Tree is a great natural antibacterial for the skin.|||Oi!
RULE NUMBER ONE: DO NOT OVER USE ON CHEMICALS!
they make your skin greasy and spread more spots.
especially the moisturizer and toner.
Clearasil is really harsh on skin (experience) so stick to ONE spot treatment if need be.
also going on the pill helps acne. but that%26#039;s extreme.
DRINK WATER
eat fruits like oranges.
use %26quot;quiniderm%26quot; from Boots 拢2.00 it%26#039;s AMAZING
i tried everything but that works.
good luck x|||i use to be the same..1st of all STOP using so many different products.. i tried for soo long to try and sort my skin out, finally its alot betta.. this probably isn%26#039;t the answer you want, but eat alot of fruit and veg and at least 3 bottles of water a day.. weneva i eat anything unhealthy i end up having alot of spots..so just try and be healthy.. i use clearasil anti break out cream.. its in a medium sized tube and u put a lil bit on all of ur face once in the evening and once in the mornin..but afta mine dries on my face i moisturise with vaseline.. jst buy a small tin of it, put it on ur face and rub in ( not to much tho).. and jst wait until ur skin soaks it up.. i do this b4 i go to bed and in the mornings. i hope this works for you.. do it for about 5 days and c if you notice a change, also if ur skin isnt too sensitive or anything you could use the clearasil %26#039; skin perfecting wash%26#039; .. i hope this works for you :) x|||You might want to consider changing your face stuff. I%26#039;ve only heard bad things about Clearasil. Right now I use Neutrogena Deep Clean for Normal to Oily Skin, which I think is the absolute best! I HIGHLY reccomend it, just make sure you get a moisturizer (I would use Aveeno, their stuff is good). Hope I helped!|||Your skin is a breathing organism. Limit make-up use as much as you can. Drinking water does wonders for skin! YOU CAN%26#039;T MAKE PORES SMALLER - YOU CAN ONLY MAKE THEM APPEAR SMALLER!
The best way to do this is...
1) exfoliate 3 x%26#039;s a week (GENTLY): this rids your skin of dirt and oil and sloughs off dead skin cells
2) Cleanse face with gentle cleanser: Personally, I started using Cetaphil. It%26#039;s not as harsh as so many of the other face washes and use this 2 x%26#039;s a day (morning %26amp; night). Seriously, it works great.
3) Moisturize: what happens when you wash your face is you strip it of it%26#039;s natural oils which in turn will actually produce more oil! USE a gel moisturizer made for oily skin. It will control shine throughout the day.
4) I started using a make-up primer. It fills in pores a little better than just applying makeup on your skin alone.
5) Using APPLE CIDER VINEGAR + WATER is an excellent skin toner! I do this and love it! I do it everynight before bed and sometimes before I put my moisturizer on.
**When dirt and oil get in them they actually stretch which is not good. duh. Just try and keep your face clean by washing twice a day and not over doing it, get a good toner, exfoliate, and top with a primer! tada! The more you use your toner, the better.
ALOE VERA is truely awesome! It helps cure scars from pimples like a dream. I actually went out and bought an aloe plant that I use and I%26#039;ll probably have it till the day I die!

I break out so bad when that time of the month comes around and it drives me nuts. I use L%26#039;Oreals kit once sometimes twice a week and it does really help. There are two kits. I bouth both, but you can find which ones looks better for you.
*ONE GOOD THING ABOUT BIG PORES IS THAT THEY PRODUCE MORE OIL WHICH UR SKIN USES TO FIGHT WRINKLES!|||Clean your face with COLD water daily.
Then pat it dry with a towel.
Keep your hair away from your face.|||good clean water, and a health low bad fat diet, keep cool
