You need to clean this area well before washing your face so that your pores don't get bigger.

To start with the conclusion, you must wash your hands thoroughly before washing your face so that your pores do not widen!!

I've been doing well all this time 😁😁😁😁

You all know that once pores widen, it's hard to shrink them, right?

Since pores are difficult to shrink, you must manage them well from the start to prevent them from widening further.

One of those methods is washing your face!!

Let's learn the proper way to wash your face without widening pores.

 

It is best to wash your hands thoroughly before washing your face to prevent bacteria on your hands from entering your pores. Water that is too hot widens pores, while water that is too cold cannot properly wash away impurities inside the pores. Wash your face with water at a temperature similar to body temperature. Then, at this stage, you must lather up a cleanser sufficiently and remove dirt from deep within the pores by massaging.

 

Use a mildly acidic facial cleanser instead of alkaline soap when washing your face. It is recommended to do so. Mildly acidic facial cleansers have a pH level (acidity) similar to that of the skin, which helps reduce damage to the skin's natural protective barrier. When drying your face with a towel, it is best to wipe gently, focusing only on removing moisture, rather than sweeping your face down.

 

If your skin feels squeaky clean and your pores feel tight after washing your face, you have washed it incorrectly. If the skin is too dry, sebum secretion may increase as a compensatory mechanism to retain moisture. For the same reason, it is recommended to limit exfoliation to 1 to 2 times a week. After washing your face, if you prep your skin with a toner using a clean cotton pad and then apply lotion, it helps remove any impurities that may remain on the skin.

 

Occasional steam massages are also helpful. You can easily make a steam towel by wetting a towel, wringing it out lightly, and heating it in a microwave for about 30 seconds. Gently place it on your face without rubbing, and remove it when you feel the heat has cooled. Afterwards, lightly rinse your face with cool water.

 

also It is best to always keep your skin from getting hot. When skin temperature rises, the skin's collagen breaks down excessively, leading to a loss of elasticity and, as a result, an increase in pore size.

 

It is also important to drink enough water, at least 2 liters a day. No matter how expensive the cosmetics or treatments you try, they will not be effective if your skin is dry due to a lack of moisture. If skin tissue is dry, skin elasticity will decrease.
