I have a similar problem, but my pores are HUGE on my nose and on my cheeks under my eyes. It's so weird. Here's what I do:

First, I wash my face with a good clenser (I usually switch mine up, so choose whichever you like)

Then, I exfoliate. I use Burts Bee's Citrious Scrub, but I don't think they make it anymore. I've had that bottle for ages. If you can't find that, I'd reccomend something with microbeads so i't gental

Next, I use a Biore' 1 Minute Self Heating Mask(This is the most important step) Follow the directions, and your pores should look better.

Your pores may be noticiable, but not clogged exfoliate every day and use toner to help minimize the appearance of your pores.

Hope I helped!

Another product you might try are the Biore strips. If your pores are clogged these will clean them out, then just moisturize. HTH

I use the Biore warming anti-blackhead cleanser. Very good stuff. If you use a product with a strong concentration of vitamin A, that should help with the blackheads as well. For moisturizer, pick an oil free one.

Fully agree

Also I know I'll get blasted on this but guys hey, it really worked wonders. I mean miracles. My best friend totally unclogged her pores and exfoliated her face using scotch tape. Yep. It worked so much better than the Biore that I tried it and loved the results. Totally smooth and clear even skin. I'm not saying do it I'm just saying it sure the heck worked.

oh well to reduce open pores good solution is ICE...

after cleaning your face with scrub rub an ice cube on face mostly on cheeks...

usually ice's been used to rub on skin after steam. cause steam opens pores on skin... so ice is useful.. u can also add some juice when you put tray to chill in fridge.

meant can add 1-2 drops of lemon or orange in ice etc... whatever suits your skin...

this actually works... instead of using any chemicals...

So strange everyone says moisturize but anytime I moisturize where I have huge pores it makes them look alot worse. I am done with trying to get them smaller I am trying to still find a good primer to conceal them. Lise Watier works ok but it makes my skin sooooo flakey its gross, pure luxe eraser worked super great the first week then sucked after I use moisturizer every day now cuz I use bp at night but I dont use moisturizer where my pores are. Just on the side of my face.

i asked my dermatologist about this...

he said big pores can be treated with medicine and by not using pore strips...b/c they constantly keeps it open. if you are going to use the pore strips limit i to once every couple of weeks.

i might have to try scotch tape cuz nothin else works. I just cant get rid of em

...what medicine

 

[magosienne]

i tried the biore strips, and all i got as a result is glue all over my nose. i just use a gentle exfoliator from Neutrogena (deep clean). it works pretty well, but i still have some black heads. oh, well, i'm used to it. i try to clean as much as i can but i know i probably will never have a perfectly cleaned nose.

what i do though before my clay mask is exfoliate my t zone. i found out it opens the pores so the clay can go into them and clean them better. it works great, but it doesn't last /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
