Brilio.net - Facial pores are a part of the skin that has the function of being a place where sebum or the skin's natural oils come out. This sebum will keep facial skin moist and supple.

But unfortunately, facial pores will appear larger than their proper size . Because of this, the face becomes prone to oily, dull, prone to acne, and looks less smooth.

Large pore sizes are also caused by the accumulation of dead skin cells on the face and age, so that the pores lose their elasticity. External factors can also make facial pores enlarge, such as exposure to UV rays from the sun, pollution, cigarette smoke, and other free radicals can damage the collagen and elastin tissue in the skin, so that the skin structure in the pores becomes weakened.

The skin at the mouth of the pores will loosen more easily, so the pores will look large. Well, if the dirt that clogs it is not cleaned immediately, it will turn into blackheads.

Blackheads are the precursor to the formation of acne if they are mixed with p. acnes bacteria which triggers inflammation. Therefore, if you want your facial pores to appear smaller, you need to clean the pores first of the blackheads that have accumulated.

One effort that can be done is to use an oatmeal mask. Oatmeal can indeed act as an exfoliator, but unfortunately using oatmeal requires the right method.
