Brilio.net - Pores are a component of the skin that has an important role, because it is a place where sebum comes out which will maintain skin moisture. But unfortunately, pores are often clogged by various dirt, so sebum production will also be more than normal.
These clogged pores will make them appear larger than they should be. Well, these large pores will make the face less smooth, oily and look dull.
There are various factors that trigger this condition, such as genetics, weather changes, excessive exposure to sunlight, hot temperatures, and free radicals which can disrupt the health of facial skin. An oily face will make it easier for dirt or free radicals to stick to the surface of the face.
Well, some of the dirt in question is dead skin cells that have accumulated, dust, and makeup residue that has not been cleaned optimally. This dirt will mix with sebum which then clogs facial pores.
Blockages that are not cleaned and treated immediately will turn into blackheads. Blackheads are what also make pores appear bigger.
Large pores can also be the cause of inflamed acne. This is because dirt trapped in the pores of the face will become a place for the growth of bacteria that cause inflammatory acne.
So, to prevent that from happening, you can do various things. Such as undergoing treatment at a beauty clinic, using skincare products, and using natural ingredients. One skincare product that is often used to treat large pores is pore pack .
Pore pack itself is skincare in the form of a plaster to remove blackheads by removing dirt that causes large pores. This skincare is indeed effective, but it turns out there are natural ingredients that are no less effective at removing dirt that causes large pores.
As shared by a girl via her personal TikTok account @resepherbalbanyuwangi, who actually uses 3 kitchen ingredients. The kitchen ingredients in question are tomatoes, granulated sugar and baking soda.
