How do I shrink my pores?

Question

I have huge pores. I'm wondering what the most efficient (and cheapest) way is to clean them out and tighten them up. Any suggestions would be welcome :)

Answer 1

you can actually get cream to shrink pores from clinque

Answer 2

Try exfoliating your skin then applying a clay mask. this should suck all of the dirt out of your pores and make them less visible. Then splash your face with cold water: this will actually tighten pores. It may take a while but this routine will help minimize your pores. You should definitely see results in a couple of weeks.

Answer 3

Same problem here, but I have discovered that by getting regular facials really help, it is spendy but sooo worth it in the end. Once you start that your skin will be easier to maintain. I wash and use a non-alcohol toner, the toner keeps your pores clean which will make them appear smaller, if your pores appear to be large it is because they have dirt or build up in them, get it out and they will shrink. But the key is to keep them clean. I have a clay sulfur mask I used once or twice a week it seems to really help.

Answer 4

As long as you've cleansed thoroughly (don't use normal hand soap, too oily), rinse with cold water after rinsing will naturally close the pores. Remember then not to dry your face in a warm towel or they'll just pop open again.

Answer 5

First you should steam your face, do this w/ a bowl of hot water (preferably boiled w/ a little rosemary) pull your hair back and place your face in the steam w/ a towl over you (it kills any bacteria in your pores. do for a few min. now rinse w/ cold water to close them. you can also tr5y a mud mask

Answer 6

I don't know how cheap you want but Mary Kay has a product that is called Microdermabrasion. It is awesome for shrinking pores but it also reduces the amount of black heads too. $55.00 for the kit

Answer 7

Egg Whites do a wonderful job. And you don't run the risk of broken capillarys as you would with ice and cold water. Put the egg whites on the offending area, let dry rinse with cool water.

Answer 8

use warm water to clean then with an exfoliater(at a drug store) and then use cold water to close them up. That is the cheapest way

Answer 9

origins has a great mask called activated charcoal. it's soothing and non-irritating to me. i just steam my face to open the pores and then put the mask on.

Answer 10

cold creams will do. but the effect is not that fast it takes how many months to see the effect. but if i were you i will choose to undergo a diamond peeling! its really effective and within the first session you will see the difference.. its not that expensive. 20$ only!
