Some people actually experience skin irritation because their face is too dry after using egg whites as a facial mask

Brilio.net - Facial pores are a component of the skin that has an important role as a place where sebum or the skin's natural oils come out. Well, this sebum will help maintain facial skin moisture and hydration.

But sometimes, pores appear larger than they actually are because they are clogged with dirt. Such as dead skin cells that accumulate, dust, and makeup residue that is not cleaned optimally.

This dirt will clog facial pores and turn into blackheads. Even if left unchecked, blackheads will cause inflamed acne. The appearance of large pores will also make the sweat glands produce excess sebum and cause the face to look dull.

Not only due to clogged pores, enlarged pores can also be caused by decreased skin elasticity. This condition is generally experienced by people whose skin looks sagging, usually experienced when someone enters old age, namely at the age of 30 years and above, so that the pores appear larger.

In some people, large pores can be clearly visible and disturb their appearance. Especially for women who like to apply make-up, the appearance of large pores will make the make-up fade easily due to excess oil production on the face. Therefore, many people are looking for ways to reduce or disguise the appearance of large pores on the face.

One effort that can be done is to use natural ingredients. Many people use egg whites to reduce excess oil production on the face as well as shrink large pores.
