 As a rule, enlarged pores and shine on the face occur in people with oily skin, that is, those with skin whose sebaceous glands produce excessive amounts of sebum. This may be due to the individual characteristics of the organism, as well as provoked by improper skin care and even some diseases. Oily skin can be present in a person at any age, but is more common in young people.
Fortunately, in modern cosmetology there are many different means with which the skin remains smooth and matte even in the heat. To fight enlarged pores and oily shine on the face, you should first of all organize the right skin care. Such care should be daily and include several successive stages: skin cleansing, toning, moisturizing, protection.
Skin cleansing. This is the most important stage in the fight against enlarged pores, as well as comedones (blackheads that clog pores). The fact is that oily skin becomes dirty quickly due to the sebaceous film covering it. That is why it is so important to clean it at least twice a day using special products: gels, foams, and washing mousses.
Important! You cannot wash your face with ordinary alkaline soap, as well as too hot water, as this greatly dries the skin and, as a result, provokes even more abundant sebum secretion.
During the day, if necessary, oily skin can be cleansed with special wipes soaked in aloe, tea tree oil and other anti-inflammatory ingredients.
Deep cleansing. This is, as a rule, a light peeling, which should be carried out no more than 2 times a week. For deep cleansing, you can use scrubs, enzyme peels or special cleansing masks. They exfoliate the upper stratum corneum of the epidermis, thereby freeing pores, renewing the skin, improving its color and preparing for the most effective action of the products in the next stages of care.
Toning and moisturizing. This step after cleansing is also very important for oily skin with enlarged pores. Toners increase skin tone by tightening pores, nourish and refresh it.
Moisturizing is necessary to replenish lost moisture and prevent the skin from drying out. For these purposes, you can use light moisturizing creams containing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, extracts of seaweed, chamomile, aloe, and jojoba oil. In hot weather, instead of cream, you can use various emulsions, gels and water-based fluids, which have a light texture, are quickly absorbed and do not leave shine. It is desirable that they contain antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, which protect the skin from the influence of aggressive environmental factors, as well as extracts of white or green tea, which have an anti-aging effect.
Skin protection. First of all, the skin must be protected from the harmful effects of the sun's ultraviolet rays. It is they who provoke oily shine on the face. Any product that contains UV filters is suitable for protection, as well as physical filters such as zinc dioxide or titanium dioxide, which gently matte the skin without clogging the pores. In conclusion, it remains to recall the benefits of various face masks. Mattifies, tightens pores, reduces overactive sebaceous glands homemade masks based on egg white, fermented milk products, lemon, cucumber, white clay, etc.
