What causes pores to get bigger, and can they shrink again?

Women with oily and combination skin tend to struggle with large pores due to an overproduction of sebum by the skin’s sebaceous glands. When your skin produces excess oil, it mixes with the dirt and dead skin cells on the surface of your skin, clogging the pores and making them appear larger. Harsh chemicals from the wrong skincare products can also dehydrate the skin and clog your pores.

In other cases, sodium-rich diets and a lack of hydration also contribute to large pores. If you’re not cleansing or exfoliating your face regularly, it causes dirt and bacteria to get trapped in your pores, ultimately leading to large pores and blemish-prone skin.

Thankfully, the right pore-minimising skincare products can help to reduce the appearance of large pores and make them less visible. Look for ingredients such as Salicylic Acid and Tamarind as they gently exfoliate and unclog the pores without harming your skin.

How do I get oil out of my face pores?

Cleansing and toning are important steps in your pore-shrinking skincare routine to eliminate any lingering traces of sebum so your skin can receive the maximum nutrients from your serum and moisturiser. Be sure to cleanse your face twice a day and exfoliate at least once or twice a week with gentle skincare products designed for your skin type.

What is the fastest way to heal blemishes on the face?

Acne and blackheads are common issues with oily and combination skin. They can be a bit tricky to navigate if you’re not using the right blemish-treatment skincare products. On that note, you should avoid products with harsh chemicals and alcohol, as those will dehydrate your skin and worsen any existing blemishes.

So if you’re looking for gentle skincare products to treat blemishes and shrink the appearance of large pores, Clarins’ blemish-treatment skincare products might just be what your skin needs as they are enriched with botanical ingredients and advanced formulations to help reduce blemishes and accelerate the healing process.

Specifically designed for oily and combination skin, the Pure-Reset Resurfacing Blemish Serum is a refreshing pore-minimising serum enriched with Organic Apple extracts, Zinc, Glycolic and Salicylic Acids to regulate sebum production and minimise the appearance of large pores and blemishes over time.

Designed for younger women with blemish-prone skin, this serum serves as a gentle treatment for oily skin as it rebalances the skin and visibly reduces imperfections such as acne scars or large pores.

For the best results, pair the pore-shrinking serum with the My Clarins PURE-RESET Mattifying Hydrating Blemish Gel. Like its name suggests, this mattifying frosted gel hits the reset button on your skin to give you a glowing, blemish-free complexion.

It is the perfect pore-minimising moisturiser for oily and combination skin because it minimises shine and visibly diminishes the appearance of blemishes without irritating your skin. Organic Coconut Water nourishes the skin cells, Goji energises the skin, White Horehound protects against the harmful effects of pollution, Tamarind Pulp Acids exfoliate dead skin cells and Roselle Acids blur out blemishes and restore radiance.

On top of that, if you wish to dry blemishes in just 1 night, do try out our new PURE-RESET targeted blemish lotion that gives you clearer skin when you wake up in the morning. This lotion is formulated with meadowsweet extract for purifying the skin and combat the blemishes during the night.

Do blemishes go away, and how long do they take to clear?

Not to worry, blemishes will fade away with time. Most customers have reported an improvement in their skin texture within 3 to 4 weeks of using our pore-minimising products, which proves that blemishes do go away.

Blemish-treatment skincare products take time to work, and depending on your skin condition, it may take a few months to see visible changes. However, patience and consistency are the key aspects of the process, so keep using pore-minimising products twice a day and maintain a healthy lifestyle by consuming plenty of water and avoiding foods that are drenched in sugar, oil and sodium.
