Question: What is a good pore reducing face lotion? I am 25, and looking for a good pore reducing face lotion. I have medium size pores and would like to shrink them a little bit. Any suggestions that aren't too expensive? Thank you!
Answer: I've had good success with this product, Picture Porefect...

However, it *is* on the pricier side--$40 at Sephora.
What would really help you in reducing the appearance of pores, and would be a lot cheaper, would be using an exfoliator regularly. With regular exfoliating, you're clearing out the yuck that gets into the pores and makes them appear big and black. Exfoliating with a nice facial scrub helps clear the pores out. I use this one by Lush, and I love it!

Also, using a pressed powder throughout the day on the T-zone where pores tend to be most visible will go a long way in absorbing oil and making pores appear less so.
--->Good Luck!
Question: How to make your own pore strips without gelatin or eggs? I've seen two recipes to make your own pore strips, one with eggs and toilet paper, another with none flavored gelatin and milk. The thing is we don't keep eggs or none flavored gelatin in the house. Not to mention eggs and milk make me feel sick, I'm not allergic, they just make me sick. It's getting a little expensive buying pore strips all the time.
Answer: Honestly, I don't think you CAN make them without these things. I'm sorry. I know that you can use flavored gelatin (it's a prettier color, you can see where to peel, and it smells good) but milk is unavoidable.
Mix a tablespoon of flavored Jell-o with some milk, and microwave for 10 seconds.
Without the milk you don't have a base... sorry, I did my best to help! You may have to stick with the strips, but I hope I helped, I tried.

Question: How red does a pore extraction leave your face? And for how long? I'm getting a pore extraction at my dermatologist on monday and i'm planning to go to a party that same day. The thing is, my appointment is pretty late in the afternoon (at 3-4) and the party is too probably. (i dont know the time yet)
I was just wondering how red my face would be afterwards, and how long it would take to go away? Would makeup cover it? Can i even wear makeup right afterwards?
Answer: usually about 30 minutes and usually you dont want to wear makeup for a day but you can ask the dermatologists for his opinion on that and yeah makeup can cover it if you get a good foundation. i reccomend icing your face or putting vitamin e oil for fast redness relief

Question: What happens if you use Biore Pore Strips more than twice in a day? My friend used a Biore Pore Strip on her nose since the first time it did not take out the blackheads. Will anything happen to her or her skin? Also should she try again tomorrow or not?
Answer: With some people it can just hurt and you might get a skin irritation. But it can really damage your pores. The whole point of getting those Biore Pore Strips in a six pack is so you can use them steadily. It would be bad for your skin to wipe out all blackheads in one hit.
If she hasn't noticed any pain then she should be okay. But I wouldn't do it again. It can really wreck your skin.
Question: Should I use clean and clears pore perfecting moisturizer for photos? I heard it's bad to use sunscreen or reflective moisturizers because in photos it makes your face looks white. Pore perfecting moisturizer only has SPF 15 but in my school photos I don't want a white face! I want my face to look flawless though. If you hav any tips or ideas please comment! Thanks!
Answer: I think you should get the Clean and clear pore prefecting moisturizer and then put a very thin layer of powder from Maybelline or Covergirl. That way your skin will look healthy and natural without looking white or shiny! Best of Luck =)

Answer: Dear Fren!
You have asked a question which contains multiple clauses thus I render my answer in the same way.
1. Difference between Toner and Cleanser

Toner is used to help the skin maintain its health by providing extra richness which often contains Vitamins, Vegitable & Fruit Extracts etc whereas Deep Pore Cleanser is mainly consistant of Chemicals of different types for removal of Dust Contaminations from skin. They act reciprocally to Toners.

Question: Can you use Biore pore strips for the nose on another part of your face? I don't want to waste the money buying another pack of porestrips for the face.
Will nose porestrips work for the rest of your face?
If you have tried it, please tell me the results.
ALSO
The Deep cleaning biore pore strips have witch hazel + tea tree oil in it.
I have witch hazel & tea tree at home.
Should I add that stuff to my regular pore strips to make it work better?
Or would something go wrong?
Answer: For the Biore Strips portion of your question, you can use the nose strips on other parts of your face, although it wont be as effective. They're specifically designed to fit on your nose, but they still will work, just not as well. I alos use the face strips on my nose when I run out of nose strips

Question: What at home kit works best to tighten skin and reduce pore size? I once saw an infomercial on this at home kit that what very convincing. (I know Im gullible) It was something that would tighten skin and reduce pore size. I remember that they had a girl test it for a month or something on only one side of her face. There was a significant difference. I never really tried any product off of infomercials even though I was really wanting to try the youthful essence. Any ideas on reducing pore size in general?
Answer: *You do not need a kit. And it is smart not being influenced by infomercials and deceptive or fake photos/shots. This safe, natural cure is a really effective way to quickly and permanently reduce large pores and rid face of pimples, black and white heads and give you a tight skin,
Quite vigorous massage using essential oils works wonders. Lavender, olive, almond and grape seed have been used by specialists to treat and cure acne and other conditions as they do not clog, cause breakouts and they actually reduce skin's oil production.
So as not to pull/stretch skin, first tighten by opening mouth 3/4" and pull lips firrmly back against teeth. Do a forward and back massage - not circular - using tips and front of fingers and sometimes palms - depending where on face you apply. For quickest results do for 15 to 20 min daily (Doesn't have to be all in one session). Skin will tighten, clear, and pores will reduce in as little as 2 to 3 days and see better results day by day.
Apply massage to entire face to get a tight, firm, totally blemish free, healthy skin. Oils are perfect safe moisturizers - many moisturizing products harm and age skin. Simply wipe away surface excess with water and tissues. Does not leave face oily looking.

Question: How to use a detergent free deep pore cleanser? Last summer I had an allergic reaction with a scrub [St Ives apricot] and now my face is a mess! I am using this detergent free deep pore cleanser. The instruction on the bottle just says to use a wet cotton pad and follow with moisturizer. Now I'm wondering if I should rinse off or just leave it as is? I've absolutely no idea. Please help.
Answer: Well, the cleansers tend to strip your skin of all oils, etc, which can leave it vulnerable to dirt and polluntants in the air, so a moisturizer might be a good idea. Sounds like your skin is very sensitive, so you might choose a moisturizer that says it's for sensitive skin, but test it on the soft skin of your inner arm before putting it on your face anyway, just to make sure it doesn't cause a reaction.
Perhaps you should consult a dermotologist if the scrub left your skin in that much of a mess.
