Beat blocked pores – 5 simple steps
We don’t try to hide the fact that we’re in pursuit of perfect, poreless skin. Good skin means less makeup, less time stuck in front of the mirror trying to cover stuff up and more ZzzZZzZz’s. Hell. Yeah.
But right now, there’s one thing standing between us and said perfect skin (besides genetics and the lack of Danish or Swedish heritage)…
Blocked, swollen pores – thanks to things like foundation, daily grime, too much wine, and not enough water.
So we got to the bottom of it (as in, each and every single pore on our faces). And after a couple of weeks of strictly adhering to the tips below, we’re almost completely in the clear.
Watch, and learn.
Cleanse twice daily.
You need to keep your pores super clean to prevent the build-up of oil and dead skin.
We recommend using an oil cleanser (to draw everything out), followed by a purifying cleanser at night if you’ve been wearing makeup throughout the day.
Exfoliate. Exfoliate. Exfoliate – but make sure you’re using the right one for your skin.
Chemical exfoliants are particularly effective for this because they break apart skin debris that eventually leads to clogged pores.
We also like to give our skin a deeper cleanse with a Clarisonic every few days.
The tiny vibrations plough-away dirt and dead skin cells like nothing else.
But go easy on your skin – over-exfoliating will just make it produce more oil, and more blocked pores.
Natural alternative: try rubbing a lemon over the problem areas every few days, leave for a few minutes, then rinse.
Don’t skip the face mask.
Use one three times a week to draw-out anything hiding deep down in your pores.
If you can keep on top of this routine, trust us, you’ll have brighter, clearer, cleaner skin pretty much instantly. Yes please.
