Large pores are caused by two things: genetics and age dermatologists say. As we get older, the elasticity in the skin decreases, which causes pores to dilate. Dermatologists recommend using a low-strength topical retinol or vitamin C product. Both of these are antioxidants that work to increase collagen and elastin production to give your skin a smoother appearance. Try either The Body Shop Vitamin C Super Charged Serum or Neutrogena Pore Refining Cream. Suggest going to a dermatologist or a spa for microdermabrasion treatments, a type of facial that gently sloughs off the dead surface layer of skin. It will also help the antioxidant creams to penetrate the skin more quickly.
Concealing large pores with makeup is also an option. Start by applying a foundation primer, a product that evens out skin tone and prevents foundation from sinking into pores. When it dries, apply your foundation. Cream or cream-to-powder formulas work better than liquid foundations, which can soak into the pores, making them even more obvious. As a final step, use a brush to apply a light dusting of loose powder. Products to try: Paula Dorf Perfect Primer, Oil of Olay Complete Radiance Foundation and Calvin Klein Loose Powder.

Use a pore-cleansing scrub and wash yuor face with cold water. It will make your pores contract temporarily.

I found that using a mud masque regularly helped shrink my pores a little. But you have to keep it up because as soon as you stop, the pores get bigger again.

No, and I asked a plastic surgeon the same question.
Therefore, I do fill them in with a pancake heavier make-up and
put on my regular foundation over it. No one knows.
Try it - it works!
