6 Beauty Lovers Spill on the Best Pore Products Out Now
Whether I’m trying to blur them, unclog them, or shrink them, I spend a good amount of time in my routine each day paying attention and treating my pores. But it makes sense, right? When they’re left unattended, I’m dealing with an increased chance of breakouts and then an inevitable bad mood.
And when I find a good product that blurs or minimizes their appearance? It's like a Snapchat selfie marathon up in my apartment.
Need some new product suggestions? I reached out to a few beauty lovers, pros, and bloggers to get the lowdown on the products they love for their pores.
dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
"dermalogica's Daily Microfoliant is magic... pure magic! It minimizes pores, removes dirt and debris, and evens skin tone, revealing brighter, smoother skin. I've never in my life seen a product produce such drastic results after just one use. It's a unique rice-based powder formula that activates upon contact with water, and the rice acts as an incredible exfoliant for the skin," says blogger Taylor-Rae of Style Souffle.
