Big red pores and bumps. Horrible. Making me feel v glum.

They look like blackheads in the photo but they're just enlarged red pores.

Skincare regime is micellar water and a light gel moisturiser. I wear mineral foundation once every couple of weeks or so.

I used to have quite decent skin, it's only been in the past few months that this has appeared.

TIA folks Smile

Thanks Kennington. Am going to ditch the current products, they're cheap shite anyway.

I've been hankering after a new pillow, might have a mooch around TK Maxx soon any excuse

Am no expert but my skin had looked like that in the past so was compelled to stick my oar in!

AmIbeingTreasonable (great name btw) I don't mean to be an advertisement for Cliniqe really, but they have helped. Their redness solutions daily relief cream works as a gentle moisturiser and then their redness solutions makeup is very effective. I react to a lot of stuff, but not to them. I use Dermalogica clear start face wash. I need to have a foaming/soapy style wash and rinse off face wash, I can't bear using cotton wool and doing that kind of thing.

Another suggestion OP, try boil washing your pillow cases without any laundry detergent, and changing them every couple of days?

My pal has lent me her roche posay effeclar duo to see if it works for me. She uses their CC cream too. I will report back!
