How do I tackle large pores?

By COSMANIA - 29 December 2021 - Skincare
Pores fulfill a useful function because they allow your skin to breathe. Each pore has a sebaceous gland that produces oil, so pores on the oilier areas of your skin are slightly larger and coarser (such as on your nose, for example). Only the appearance also wants something and it is less beautiful if your foundation gets into the pores. We have to disappoint you a bit because making large pores smaller will unfortunately not work because the shape is genetically determined. But you don't have to give up all hope because there are ways to make your pores smaller and smaller. How?  From cleansers to primers to masks, these are our go-to products for glowing skin.
