Hi

I have some of these, and know people who have these too. I have not found a solution, but then again, I have not tried.

I think most people have them, and we just focus too much on our faces that we don't realize it is normal.

Your pores are clean though. I think the only thing that could help with something like this is maybe a chemical peel? But I am not sure. I've never seen a solution for big pores. Except using cold water but I think that is more of a temporary effect.

peel,well if its about removing the dead upper skin away; dont u think the regular wash of mine(used twice a day) that has salicylic acid(1%) has any effect?

They maybe huge pores for some people...I don't know...i mean if those are huge than what would you call the pores on my cheek! mutants? LOL

(You have beautiful skin.Fair for an Indian )

i am at times pale.

i like some colour u know.

anyway,back to pores.

do u have pores around ur nose or central cheek?

yeh around the nose! that's where the maximum number of huge obnoxious pores are!

i know.

i wish we find something that would help it.

anything diet wise or topical.

do some study and i'll do the same.

i also think i should work on my oil production now.

that may have some effect as well.

like they say,bigger pores show more oil production so may be less oil production would atleast make the pores look better.

I just wish i get a girl who has skin like a Greek goddess lol...So that i don't pass this crap gene to my offspring.Somehow my gene should get repressed!

*i am dragging u by ur ears now*

arey i said that on a lighter note... ,I don't judge people by their skin. Wouldn't that be preposterous? I mean a person with immaculate skin,if he/she judges a person by his skin ,he gets labelled as "Vain". Now if an individual like me with pathetic skin judges another individual by his skin,that's contrary to all logic! It's like a retard calling another retard "Retard" haha... I love intellectual girls Girls who are good in math (1 in 1000) lol. Somehow math girls turn me on! I know it sounds wierd. But that's how i'm wired. =P

And yes,i will search on this. We'll defeat the pores! No pore is mightier than my "Perseverance".

So i studied a lot on this.All the articles say it's all genetics and you can't change anything to control the oil production of your skin and so your pores.But they say Zinc and Vitamin A can help the skin (We already know this).Most articles said that one should avoid dairy and spicy food because it makes you skin produce more oil(again...we already know this).One interesting article mentioned milk of magnesia (MOM) as a remedy for oily skin.You should read about it.Maybe you already know about it but it was a new thing for me.

I'll read more about Milk of magnesia (MOM)

P.S-Funnily in the article the author kept mentioning how "MOM" helped him to solve his acne woes.I thought he meant mother but then he wrote the full form "Milk of Magnesia" . hehe

lol!

yes,there is a thread by CBIOT13 i suppose on MOM.

a trial on oily skin.

just use the search bar here.

someone else on this forum(actually more than one) dismissed the fact that the pores opens and closes as a myth and i always felt so.

but some stuff does make these appear smaller.

may be thats just temporary or fake but no harm carrying on the study.

i am going slow though.

i am basically working on huge pores and then oily skin!

bump

OMG glad im not alone. I have very oily skin, mostly my forehead, nose especially, and around my nose under my eyes. Those areas have huge pores too for me, but my forehead is okay with pore size so far. I cant find any help either, but this looks very promising. Check it out, i might order some samples.

This stuff is for oily skin, but even if you dont have oily skin, it should still help with big pores.

http://www.paulaschoice.com/shop/collections/Skin-Balancing/_/Skin-Balancing-Pore-Reducing-Toner/

This stuff says its made to minimize pore size, and reviews say it does, so you should try it, i will soon hopefully. You can order a sample size for only $0.50!

Take a look at the rest of the products for oily and combo skin, and just look around the site. Good luck!

They could be enlarged from being clogged and will shrink if you keep them clear. The only thing that's ever worked for my blackheads is oil cleansing.

I also have some tiny scars that look similar. Right where those creases start to form around your mouth as you age. So it looks like I already have age creases on one side of my mouth.

I wouldn't worry so much about un-inflamed, large pores. Those sometimes shrink on their own... and sometimes they don't. Either way, nobody is going to look that closely. Sometimes pores get enlarged from the constant clogging>inflammation>acne process, which goes away when the acne does. Your skin looks a bit congested but not very inflamed. I'd avoid dairy, sugar, and excess carbs, do some oil cleansing, and let them resolve (or not) on their own. You do appear to have some mild scarring, but it's not bad. And, like I said. Nobody is looking that closely. Scarring like that sometimes goes away on its own. I had some mild scarring a year ago, and it's gone now.
