For some reason the the pores on my calves only (the rest of my body is fine, except my nose...?). Anyway, even when I shave my legs and they're super smooth it still looks like i have hairy legs. (same thing with my underarms). To make it worse, I'm super pale (all Irish) so it's even more obvious to other people and i'm embarassed to wear shorts! Is there anything I can do to fix this or help it in some way.....any advice would be awesome. thanks!

I suggest using a different method for hair removal...waxes and creams remove the hair and its follicle and that may help the appearance of your pores...

Hey there! I don't have any answers, but I used to (and still kind of do) have the same problem. I'm 24 now, but the pores on my calves used to be very very noticeable aout 10 years ago when I was in highschool. Today they are not so bad so maybe it is something goes away with age? *shrug* Good luck!

I am not irish at all but uh....Same thing here. I don't know what to do about it but I usually hide it by putting foundation [I know I know eew.] on my legs to make it look nice then I ut something shiny on them...Like I use this liittlebottle of stuff called "Bronze Beauty Wash" but I keep it on. It works great and it hides the bumps....As for the underarms....I usually try to hide what can with some foundation but it you do that, you need to wash it all off every day and night. Good luck to you!

If it is large pores, maybe use a good body scrub and then follow using a toner(Nutragena makes a good one for sensitive skin) to make the pores appear smaller. I don't have this problem on my legs but it works on my face. Good luck.

Sounds like the hair follicles. You might want to try to apply makeup made for legs to conceal it and make your legs look tan. Or if your hair is sparse, you might consider bleaching instead of shaving. As another respondent said, laser removal is another option.

For underarms you could go the long way and either pluck the armpit hair or wax . And with you legs wax but first wash your legs really good :)
