10 Best Products to Reduce the Appearance of Large Pores

Published:

Have you ever wished that there was a way to make your pores look smaller and less noticeable?

With VouPre, there is. The following 10 products will not only help to shrink the look of large pores but will also boost your complexion in a number of other ways!

1. The Radiance Facial Cleanser

Radiance Facial Cleanser

One of the most effective ways to ensure that your pores look as invisible as possible is to keep your face clean. As soon as even a small amount of dirt works its way into your pores, your pores will immediately look darker and more noticeable.

However, don’t go reaching for the most potent cleanser that you can find. Irritating your skin in any way will only make your pores look bigger.

Ideally, you want a cleanser that will both cleanse and soothe your complexion, just like the VouPre Radiance Facial Cleanser. This sulfate-free cleanser feels gentle and ultra-luxurious on the skin. It’s infused with plant proteins and amino acids that will leave your skin feeling more resilient. At the same time, it will remove all traces of oil, dirt, and product buildup to ensure that your pores look clear and clog-free.

Remember to be gentle when cleansing your face. Avoid roughly scrubbing at your skin or using hot water on your face, as all of this will lead to irritation, inflammation, and larger-looking pores.

2. The Deep Renewal Facial Peel

Unfortunately, even if you cleanse your skin twice a day, which you should be doing if you’ve been noticing large pores, you won’t be able to keep your pores completely free of impurities. Whether it be dirt, pollutants, dead skin cells, sebum, or anything else, some of those unwanted particles will still make their way into your pores, deep enough that they can’t be touched by your cleanser.

This is why it’s so important to have a good exfoliator, like the VouPre Deep Renewal Facial Peel, in your skincare routine. Exfoliating your skin two or three times a week will clear out any deep-seated impurities from within your pores. Since those blockages stretch out your pore openings and make your pores look larger and darker, getting rid of them should immediately leave your pores looking less visible.

While the effect that exfoliation has on large pores is undeniably impressive, don’t be tempted to go overboard and exfoliate too often. Over-exfoliation can cause a number of issues, one of which is an increase in sebum production. If your skin starts to produce more sebum, then your pore openings will widen to give that sebum access to your skin’s surface, which will leave you with large pores once again!

3. The Vita C Serum

Vita C Serum

Vitamin C is an ingredient that can help with so many visible skin concerns, one of which is the appearance of large pores. 

It tackles this problem from a few different angles. Firstly, it brightens the look of the skin, which makes dark pores look lighter. It will leave the texture of your skin looking smoother and more even too, doing away with the bumpy-looking finish that large pores can bring.

Vitamin C is also fantastic for tackling the appearance of skin aging, which can often lead to large pores. When the skin ages, it starts to sag. This causes the pores to droop, making them look longer and deeper. Using vitamin C to firm up the appearance of your skin will tighten up the look of your pores, making them less noticeable.

The best way to give your skin a dose of vitamin C is with a serum, like the Vita C Serum from VouPre. Unlike many of the other vitamin C serums out there, this one contains stabilized forms of vitamin C. Instead of the ingredient sitting at the entrance of your pores and oxidizing, which would make your pores look darker, it will quickly sink into your skin and start to work its magic.

4. The Cannabis Caviar Transforming Mask

Cannabis Caviar Transforming Mask

Exfoliating your skin is a great way to remove impurities from your pores. However, another way in which you can do this is with a clay face mask. Clay is revered for its absorbent properties. It soaks up excess sebum and then takes this away with it when it’s rinsed off the skin.

The VouPre Cannabis Caviar Transforming Mask takes this a step further. Not only does it contain a blend of two types of clay, but it also boasts a few other noteworthy ingredients. Willow extract is a natural astringent that will shrink the look of large pores while the numerous antioxidants in this formula will brighten and tighten your complexion.

This mask also contains several hydrating ingredients. These will plump up the look of your skin, giving it a volumized appearance that makes individual pores look less visible.

5. The Collagen Plumping Mist

Collagen Set Limited Edition

There are several studies out there that point to niacinamide’s ability to reduce the appearance of pore size. Niacinamide, which is also known as vitamin B3, offers a variety of other benefits too. It evens out the skin tone, leaves the skin barrier feeling supported, reduces the look of hyperpigmentation, and minimizes the appearance of skin aging. 

As you can see, this is an ingredient well worth adding to your skincare routine! You’ll find it in a few VouPre products, one of which is the Collagen Plumping Mist from the Collagen Cooling Set Limited Edition. 

This mist is also brimming with a cocktail of hydrating ingredients, including collagen, sodium hyaluronate, allantoin, and glycerin. The best part is that it’s so easy to use. Simply spritz some over your face once you’re done cleansing and your skin should immediately look smoother and more even.

6. The Detoxifying Thermal Mask

Detoxifying Thermal Mask

We’ve already talked about how clay masks can be extremely beneficial in reducing the look of large pores. Well, here’s another clay mask to add to your must-try list; the VouPre Detoxifying Thermal Mask.

What sets this mask apart from the many other clay masks out there is its heating effect. As you apply it to your skin, it gently warms up. There’s no denying how soothing and indulgent this feels, but that’s not why we created this mask. Instead, the heat also leaves the pores feeling relaxed, as well as more elastic. As a result, the clay in the mask will have an easier time removing impurities from your skin. 

Once it has done that, the numerous botanicals in this formula, each one packed with antioxidants, will be able to work their way into your skin without having to deal with any obstacles in your pores.

7. The Corrective Facial Cream

Thermal Collection

People often rely on serums to minimize the look of large pores. However, creams can do this too, so long as you pick one that has the right ingredients.

That’s where the VouPre Corrective Facial Cream, which can be found in our Thermal Collection, comes in. Not only is this cream incredibly hydrating, but it’s also infused with salicylic acid. This beta-hydroxy acid is a game-changer for anyone with oily skin due to how it dives deeper into the pores than alpha-hydroxy acids. Once there, it loosens impurities so that they can then be drawn to the surface and washed away.

Rosemary extract is another key ingredient in this cream. It’s known for how it soothes the feeling of inflammation, which can often be the reason behind large pores. By reducing the look of swelling and irritation, rosemary extract has the potential to calm the complexion and shrink the appearance of pores.

8. The Age Defense Cream SPF 30

Age Defense Cream SPF 30

The sun can cause a wide range of visible skin concerns, one of which is large pores. UV rays damage the collagen and elastin in the skin, with these proteins responsible for keeping the complexion firm and tight. Once these start to decline, the skin, along with the pores, will begin to sag, making those pores look bigger.

UV exposure also increases sebum production. The more oil your skin produces, the more your pores will need to expand in order to accommodate this extra flow. Rebalancing sebum production will have the opposite effect, enabling your pores to look smaller once again.

This is why it’s so important to ensure that your skin is always protected from sun damage. Applying an SPF product to your skin after carrying out your skincare routine is an easy way to do this but, if you find that SPF is something that you often forget about, the VouPre Age Defense Cream SPF 30 can help.

This product can be applied to your face like a regular moisturizer. However, thanks to its UV-blocking agents, it will also protect your skin from sun damage. Use it daily and you’ll be able to prevent your pores from looking too large!

9. The L’Rae Beam

L'rae Beam

Topical skincare products aren’t the only way to reduce the visibility of your pores. Skincare devices, like the L’Rae Beam, can help with this too. Sure, this may require more of an initial investment but LED light therapy has been proven, time and time again, to be extremely beneficial when it comes to reducing the look of pore size.

It does this in a few different ways. Red LED light works to tighten the complexion, which also tightens the look of loose pores. Meanwhile, blue LED light soothes the feeling of inflammation while regulating how greasy the skin feels. 

The L’Rae Beam offers both LED wavelengths, as well as purple, which will tackle the look of hyperpigmentation and an uneven skin tone. 

10. A Derma Roller

If you like the idea of a skincare device but don’t want to get too high-tech, a derma roller would be perfect. This is a manual, handheld tool that’s fitted with microneedles. When these needles are rolled over the skin, they create tiny punctures that trigger the skin’s natural healing processes.

In the long run, this will help to firm up your complexion, which will tighten the look of your pores to make them appear smaller. 

Treat yourself to one of VouPre’s full skincare collections and you’ll receive a derma roller along with it. Use it in conjunction with the other products to not only work on the appearance of your pores but to also enhance product penetration, making your entire skincare routine more effective.
