Brilio.net - The size of skin pores is generally influenced by genetic factors, but skin type also plays a big role. Oily skin tends to have larger pores because the sebaceous glands actively produce oil. As we age, excess oil production, especially during adolescence due to the surge of androgen hormones, can cause pores to enlarge and become prone to acne and blackheads.
External factors such as UV exposure, pollution, and cigarette smoke also contribute to pore enlargement by damaging collagen and elastin, causing the skin to lose its firmness. If left untreated, large pores can absorb more dirt, cause acne, and make makeup less than optimal.
To overcome this problem, you can use natural ingredients, not with a coffee scrub that can cause irritation, but with a mixture of honey, egg white, and lemon. This trick was shared by the TikTok account @jessbonillabeauty on May 26, 2022.
Honey acts as a natural exfoliator that cleanses pores of oil and dirt, while helping to shrink and stimulate skin regeneration. Meanwhile, egg whites contain a variety of nutrients that are useful for tightening skin and disguising pores. Lemon, with its citric acid content, acts as a natural astringent that controls oil and shrinks pores.
The combination of these three ingredients creates a multi-functional mask that not only minimizes pores, but also brightens and controls excess oil production. Here's how to make it.
