AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
See what I mean? I know that you can see them! Don't lie! Notice to large pores on my cheek and the side of my nose. Both fingers are crossed that this routine will help my pores appear smaller. A little background about my skin: I have very very oily and acne prone skin. I am always trying new things for my skin. For the past month, I have been using the Acne Free system which I purchased at Walmart. I really enjoy the cleanser... well all three of the products are good. I would say that it treats acne well but my pores are still so huge. The product details do not indicate that pores will appear smaller but that the product does go deeply into the pores to help prevent breakouts. This claim is true. The product directions recommends that you use all three steps twice daily. I use the cleanser twice daily but I only use the RenewingToner and Repair Lotion at night. In the mornings I just like to cleanse my face and then use a primer before my foundation. I know that I should probably be using a moisturizer, but I have not been able to find one that keeps my skin clear. (If you have any thoughts on ones that I could try, please leave me a comment!) Here is what I am going to be trying out as my PM routine in hopes of vanishing my pores (Click on the blue links to read more information about product details):
First and foremost I have to give props to a special tool that is very vital to my skin care routine. This is the amazing, wonderful Clarizonic Mia 2.
Step 1 Cleanser: Neutrogena Pore Refining Daily Cleanser
Step 2 Toner: Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel Pore Perfecting Toner
Step 3 Treatment: Prescription Only! Adapalene Gel
L'Oreal Revitalift Eye Cream
On Wednesdays and Sundays I like to use a Face Mask:
On Wednesdays I usually use Clinique Acne Oil-Control Cleansing Mask
On Sundays I love to use the Ole Henriksen Power Peel (I am out of this product at the moment :(
That said.... I began this skin care routine on May 15, 2014. I will keep you updated if this new routine is helping to shrink my pores. I will add updated pictures and such. Please comment if you have any other ideas for me!
Love,
Rebecha

Update as of 05-31-2014!! I had to quit using the Neutrogena Pore Refining Cleanser. At first I thought that it was working well, but my skin started feeling out of sorts. It was extremely harsh on my eye area and made under eye lines more prominent and dry. I thought I would cry! Beginning this evening, I will be switching my cleanser to the Philosophy Purity Cleanser. Everything else seems to be working fine thus far! I will keep you updated! Hope everyone is having a great weekend! Love, Rebecha
