Brilio.net - Textured and gradient facial appearance will be a common problem that makes a number of people uncomfortable. The reason is that when you touch the surface of your face it feels rough, it can even make you lose your self-confidence because the large pores are clearly visible.
The conditions above can be triggered by a buildup of dirt and oil. Pores are connected to sebaceous glands which produce sebum or oil. Excessive sebum production can cause the pores to enlarge to accommodate the release of the oil. People with oily skin tend to have larger pores due to more active sebaceous glands. This can cause blackheads, which can also make them appear bigger.
To shrink pores, regular maintenance is needed. One way is to use a mask made from natural ingredients. As done by a woman named Delia, in uploading a video on her YouTube channel @DeliaRitneLiati, she uses three types of fruit, namely cucumber, lime and tomato.
Cucumber has astringent properties that help tighten pores and reduce excess oil in the skin. The high water content in cucumbers helps soothe inflamed or irritated skin, making pores appear smaller. Cucumbers contain antioxidants such as vitamin C and caffeine which help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. The high water content also keeps skin hydrated, which is important for maintaining skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of pores.
Apart from that, lime contains citric acid which can help disguise pores by removing dead skin cells and dirt that clog pores. Rich in vitamin C, which can help increase collagen production. Collagen is a protein that helps maintain skin firmness and elasticity, so that pores look smaller.
The benefits of tomatoes for shrinking pores.Tomatoes are not only used to mix food or drinks. However, this fruit, which has a sweet and sour taste, has benefits for skin beauty. It is known that tomatoes contain natural salicylic acid, which is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), which can help clean pores by removing excess oil and dead skin cells.
Reporting from purplle.com, tomatoes are rich in antioxidants, such as lycopene, which helps protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and UV rays, which can help prevent clogged pores.
