Is there a cosmetic product that can help reduce the size of facial pores?

Answer 1

Pore size is determined by genetics & hormone levels. Pores cannot be made smaller permanently. The best one can do is to exfoliate to keep them clear and use a clay mask to temporarily tighten them.

You can use products w/ salicylic acid to help slough off dead skin cells. e.g. Neutrogen Clear Pore Oil Eliminating Toner http://neutrogena.com/ProductsDetails_69.asp?lProductLineID=13

Gentle face scrubs are another option.

Some home remedies:

You can crush up 6 plain, uncoated aspirin tablets and mix it w/ a little water to make mask. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes & rinse off w/ cool water.

Mix half a teaspoon of crushed uncoated aspirin tablets with Queen Helene Mint Julep mask or aloe vera gel to use as a mask. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes & rinse off w/ cool water.

Milk of Magnesia - apply in thin layer where needed & allow to dry 5-10 mins. Will absorb oil & tighten pores. Can be used as a spot treatment too.

For toner:
8 ounce bottle of distilled water add four crushed, uncoated aspirin
or
mix of 1/2 water, 1/2 witch hazel, 15 crushed, uncoated aspirin, and 2 drops of tea tree essential oil and 2 drops of rosemary essential oil

Answer 2

biore is a line of facial creams and that kind of stuff. i know they have a pore reducer, i havent used that one specifically, but their other products seemed to work well for me. they are a little on the expensive side compared to other drugstore facial products, but i've found them to be trustworthy.

Estee Lauder has a very good product for minimizing pores and i think its called Pore Minimizor??? I've tried them and still uses them from time to time.
