Your Daily Glow Factor
Excess oil production, dead skin cell buildup, and loss of elasticity from age or UV exposure can all make pores appear larger and more visible.
A build-up of sebum and dead skin cells causes the pore to appear larger, more prominent, and darker. Keeping your skin free of dead skin cells, pore-clogging cosmetics, sweat, and excess oil helps to minimize the appearance of pores.
You may notice that your pores become more visible as the day wears on. That’s because your skin is producing oil and the pores are filling up. If you wear heavy makeup, it can settle in and around pores, making them look even more pronounced.
Age plays a role in how prominent your pores appear as well. As skin loses elasticity, the pores can becomes slightly more visible. Plump, firm, elastic skin tends to hide the follicle openings.
To minimize the appearance of pores, cleanse morning and night and after physical activity use a toner to remove sweat, sunscreen, makeup, and oil.
