Make sure your nose pores are cosmetic-free before going to bed as this will help to clear them. You should also take off your makeup before washing your face to allow the cleanser to enter your nose pores more easily.
Wash your face twice every day
Cleaning your face eliminates any lingering makeup as well as oil, debris, and germs from your pores. Ideally, you should do this twice daily. You might also need to clean your face more than twice daily if you engage in any activity that exposes you to dirt or makes you sweat a lot.
A gentle cleanser that is either gel- or cream-based is recommended for oily skin. This is because it will help to clean out nose pores without aggravating them and making them more prominent.
Use an appropriate moisturizer
Your nose pores may be producing more sebum, but you still need to moisturize after each cleansing. This prevents any over-drying that could exacerbate nose pore difficulties. In most cases, a water or gel-based solution won’t clog your pores.
Try a clay mask to thoroughly clean your pores
For optimal results, use an appropriate clay mask two to three times per week. If the rest of your face is dry, feel free to use the clay mask simply on your nose. Clay masks help draw out plugs in your pores and can also help make them appear smaller.
Exfoliate regularly
Use an exfoliating product two to three times per week to assist the removal of dead skin cells that may be obstructing your pores. The trick is to massage the product over your nose and allow it to do the work; otherwise, your skin will get more irritated.
Note:
Any new product should be tested on a tiny patch of skin before being used on the entire face. And any skin reactions should be reported to a dermatologist.
Medical Treatment And Procedures To Reduce The Appearance Of Nose Pores
Despite keeping your nose pores clean, factors like your skin type, environment, and genes may nonetheless make them more obvious. Take into account the following remedies to make your nose pores seem smaller, of course, under the advice and supervision of a doctor. Note that it can take a few weeks or longer to see full results.
OTC acne medications
Salicylic acid is far more helpful in this area because it dries out dead skin cells deep in the pores, essentially unclogging them. Over-the-counter (otc) acne products typically contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. The latter may be helpful if you have an active acne breakout on your nose, but it doesn’t do much to reduce pore size.
