Blogstar entry: solution for enlarged pores

07 Nov 2011 05:00 AM | Posted by bh'sLeanne

Let’s face it. No pores are the same. No pores are much liked. No pores can vanish. No pores can be hidden even with foundation. No pores but just flawless skin is all we wanted, but really; how many of us do have perfect flawless pore-less skin? The truth is, not many of us do. And sadly, for those like me who suffers from having moon craters big pores, I know exactly how annoyed you are and how much you wish there is something that really just works to help rid of them.



As a skin maniac, I look after and maintain my skin till the point I almost stare at my face in the mirror every night after removing my make-up. Checking to see which pores been blocked, which pimple is ready to be taken out, any new or existing pigmentations that needs to be address immediately with more brightening mask and lightening pigmentation serum, how dehydrated my skin are by lifting my skin gently with my fingers and heart-brokenly to see more dry lines from air-conditioning environment and lack of water intake during the day.


How I solve enlarged pores problem?


Easy!     

Firstly, try not to get too offensive and heartbroken by my boyfriend, as most nights, he would stare and comment on how large my pores are (around my nose and cheeks). This is very heartbreaking, because each time he mentions it, I feel less confident in myself especially my face. Secondly, try to be diligent in cleansing routine at home which without doubt includes cleansing (as well as removal of make-up), toning, serum and moisturizing. But the weekly exfoliating, deep cleansing and hydrating mask is a must.  There isn’t much product out there that can reverse the damage done to the skin with open pores. Once it’s open, it stays open.


Only with regular skincare steps; it would help minimize the size but it would never close up. Now, to tackle my evil boyfriend comments about my large pores, I answer back to him saying:  “yes, they never shut. Always open, just like 7-Eleven; always open. “



As though our lives are not hard enough already, but we got to also face the harsh words from our loved ones, especially those whom always sleeps next to us and have advance screening blue-ray quality images of our enlarged pores. Leave us alone, leave our enlarged pores alone. No such thing as perfect. So stop harassing us about our enlarged pores. Just face it; we all love the beauty of the convenient with 7-Eleven; so start loving the beauty of our enlarged pores. Only difference is, one is a store for everyone and the other is for our close-ones that sleep next to us every night to play golf on. At least now we all know, if our naughty partners are having sleeping problems, our enlarged pores are visible for them to be amused about 24/7, because just like 7-Eleven; both are always open.
