People with oily or combination skin generally face problems with pores. As in the skin doesn’t look smooth or even. “Large pores are openings in the skin that arise as a result of increased oil secretion. ”

Even I want a solution for that . Heard that Clinique pore minimiser helps in shrinking the pores. Have not used it though . However I am not sure if it really shrinks or gives an illusion as though the pores are shrunk… It is supposed to applied before makeup. Something like a primer
Lavanya, I think Deb has reviewed it.
There is a pore minimiser by Clarins that works wonders. It works as a primer for your foundation. A temporary solution though.
I used to suffer with this problem, my dermatologist suggested i get mild Dermabrasion done every alternate month. Then once a week (i do it on Sunday) apply Retino-A in the night. It will lead to srinking the pores in a healthier way and let it stay so.
Do you get retino A or retinol creams in India ? I am very curious about retinol – seems to be the buzzword for skin care these days ?:-)
Pond’s age miracle cream has retinol…I think.
Mitra …..did u do the dermabrasion??? does it work??
I ahve used a pore reducing lotion…..don’t remember the brand , but did not help me .
Yes Priya….actually i had a 6 sitting course one a month for 6 months…after that my doc said i dont need a dermabrasion everymonth now…i can get a maintenance dermabrasion done alternate month or once in 3 months. But i was adviced to keep using the retino-a once a week.
I had gone for a treatment for my acne and scars left by them. Now its muccchhh better.
You can go to your local dermatologist. Donot go to those high end chain parlours. They are expensive plus they most of the times advice you more umber of sittings than required just to make money.
The cream i was prescribed is Tronin-0.05%
This can also be used ONLY on acne when one pops up. And it dries it overnight.
Great.thanks Mitra….i should give my dermatologist a visit …:)
I agree with Mitra! Dermabrasion is helpful to some extent for open pores.! I have tried that & I saw some of my acne scars minimized as well! :highfive:
Thanks guys!!! Will try using Clarins as I don’t have any severe problem with pores.
Developed it after many facial sessions during my wedding. Guess excess steaming during facials also causes these issues.
I don’t think pores can be minimized! ๐ ๐
What is the name of the Clarins product? Thanks
Umm me too have same problem.. hate the pores.. Orange peel powder works for me.. apply with rosewater/water, wait for it to dry and wash off..
I have heard of egg white for pores..But might be just a temporary tightening.. try that too..Let me know.. ๐
