Big Pores and Oily Skin


Question Posted Monday January 2 2006, 6:38 pm

The pores on my face are so big, therefore, my face gets so oily. I wash my face 2 times a day. About an hour after I put on my makeup after I washed my face, my face gets oily and my make up wears off. My make up is OIL FREE too. What home remedies that work for you would you suggest to me to tighten and reduce the size of my pores and to eliminate excess oil? Don't give me that stupid google bar, I've tried google.

Use toner, Neutrogena makes a good one...toner minimizes your pores.

go in the shower and make it so its hot enough that theres steam.. after about 5 minutes.. put tooth paste on your face.. it burns kinda.. then just rub it around and stuff..leave it on for a minute or so or however long you can take the burning feel.. then right after you wash your face off.. put the cold water on to close up your pores.. wen you get out of the shower.. get rubbing acholoh and rub that on your face.. then get a banana and (its kinda grose feeling) and rub it around your face.. leave it on for 10 minutes. (the bannanas dry up your face leaving it not oily) wash that off with cold water..

for makeup stick with powder makeups.. they dont get oily and they dont cloq your pores and its better for your face.. liquid foundation is really bad for your skin..

changing your pillow case everyday also helps you for not gettin zits and such..

putting your hair up before you go to sleep this way the oils on your hair dont get on your skin..

hope this helps

GOOGLE. kidding.
Erm, A toner could help.
But for during the day with better more advanced make up, to make you look amazing, You can use Bare Minerals, <3 i love it. It also reduces the size of pores, and doesnt make you look so oily. I have the same problem as you.

Use a good toner. You can get the kind that specifically tightens pores.

As for home remedies, I generally make a kind of toner out of dilluted witch hazel, rosewater, and a smidge of rubbing alcohol. Also, moisturizing with Aloe Vera Gel (not the kind that comes in pump-bottles for sunburn.. this kind is pure aloe you can also use internally for heartburn/upset stomach. You can get it from health/natural food stores). You take the gel and blot (not wipe) over your face gently with a tissue/cotton ball.

Also, wait about half an hour after you use astringent/toner on the face to give your pores time to close BEFORE you put your makeup on.

&hearts; well I don't know of anything that can make your pours smaller, but you can get blotting tissues.

&hearts; These are just little thin pieces of paper that you 'blot' your face with whenever you need, and that should pick up the oil and leave the make-up on.

&hearts; I hope this works, good luck!
