Enlarged Pores | Poor Skin Texture | Skin Treatments Utah
Many people have enlarged pores, but are not sure what may be causing them. Enlarged pores can be caused by any number of things, but the most common causes are:- Genetics
- Sun damage
- Aging skin
- Poor hygiene
In order to avoid getting enlarged pores, it is imperative to keep your face clean. Also, a good tip is to use toner in your routine, tone will tighten and refine your skin- combating the appearance of enlarged pores.
If you already have enlarged pores (and don’t worry you are not alone), don’t worry! There are things to can do to improve your pores' appearance:
- Keep your skin as clean as possible. Be sure to use natural, gentle cleanser that will clean without stripping away your skins natural oils.
- Gently exfoliate about twice a week to deep clean your enlarged pores.
- Add pore-refining cream to your skin care regimen.
Something else to consider when you have enlarged pores is if any products you currently use are comedogenic. Comedogenic ingredients block pores and don’t allow skin to breathe. This causes clogging and then enlarging of pores. Be sure that the products you are using to cleanse your skin are not comedogenic. There are websites that will list common comedgenic ingredients in skin care products.
A large amount of makeup contains comedogenic ingredients such as mineral oils and bismuth oxychloride. Studies have shown that these can be toxic and harmful to the skin. If you have enlarged pores or want to avoid getting them, stay away from comedogenic ingredients in makeup and cleansers.
