Reeeeeallly big pores... What's the solution?

5 replies

I have fairly enlarged pores in general, but I have 2 on my nose that take the piss. One is basically a hole - a blackhead extraction tool thing goes all the way in. There's not even anything in there, it's just a whacking great hole! I have a half closed nose piercing and it looks like that.

I want to book myself in for some sort of facial anyway, are there any that deal with pores that look like the grand canyon? Or do I just have to live with it and hope I don't lose stuff in there?

The pores around my nose used to be quite large, I've been using the Face Theory pore reducing toner for a while now and it has helped, though it took a few months. I'm not sure it would work for just a few large pores though, mine were all large. I've read large pores are caused by dehydrated skin, though again not sure if the odd large pore is the same?

Thank you @sarahb083 I'll try it!

Niacinamide?

JorisBonson · 07/04/2021 15:21

I use The ordinary niacinamide every day, it's definitely helped in some areas but this is a crater that will not respond to anything else

If you find something that works i would love to know! I'm exactly the same down to the crater (a HUGE blackhead that I squeezed aged 13, never healed properly) I've managed to get my skin in nice ish condition but nothing is shifting the pores.....
