I have DEEPLY clogged pores. i can squeeze my skin and oil will come out forever. I HATE this. its not so much acne in those areas so much as little bumps and stuff under the surface, which leads to bumps. i think if i could unclog the pores atleast once then i could keep them clean and not break out anymore. I need some suggestions on DEEP pore clearing products. masks/washes/treatments of any sort. im currently washing my face with a regular cleanser [no treatment] and then using duac. Thats what my derm. recommended. ive seen slight improvement but my pores are still clogged. HELP. smile.gif

try a good salicylic acid product.. paula's choice are good ones.. they will soften them up and make them easier to extract and help prevent new ones from forming.

makeupartistschoice.com sells like mini SA peels, they call them bha serums but they come in liquid form and you apply them like you would a regular peel, leaving it on for 8min. It comes in 3 strengths 3% , 5%, & 8%, wich I love because at that low % it doesnt leave you all dried out and flakey it just exfoliates and clears the pores.

exfoliation is the key, once the top layers of the skin are clear,
there will be no where for any bacteria or whateva to hide underneath.

you can use a scrub [such as a loofah] with an exfoliating scrub and apply somekind of AHA - BHA - Salicylic acid product.

take care
