A skin concern that is very common is skin with large pores. Many products dare to promise to close the pores. Well, let's be clear about that first and foremost: you cannot open and close pores . A pore is not a door that can be opened and entered. However, you can make large pores that are clearly visible, and which annoy many people, become finer and less visible. Our SELF products stimulate this, but good care is crucial!
1. Remove your makeup
It remains a classic, but it is really true: cleanse your skin every evening ! Never sleep with your makeup on, because this will clog your pores with oil, dead skin cells and everyday dirt. Even if you don't wear makeup, it is really necessary to cleanse your skin. A double cleansing is ideal, with which you first remove your makeup, for example with our SELF Boost of Freshness . This lotion removes all the dirt from your face. Apply lotion to a cotton pad and keep repeating this until your cotton pad no longer sees any dirt. Rinse your face afterwards with lukewarm water. You can then use a konjac sponge , which scrubs the skin in a very gentle way so that your skin is really thoroughly cleansed and wonderfully soft.
2. Clean your face before & after exercising
I sometimes see women in full makeup on the treadmill. There again, a big NOGO! Are you going to exercise? Then let your skin breathe and remove your makeup first. Done with sports and sweating? Cleanse your face again to wash off all the sweat, followed by the rest of your routine.
3. Exfoliate your face weekly
To achieve a fine skin texture, it is important that you exfoliate . Your skin loses its dullness and by exfoliating weekly it will shine again. You can do this with a specialized skin expert where you can give your skin a really in-depth peeling, where you really work on refining the skin texture. But you can also exfoliate at home, but be sure to use a facial scrub. Our facial scrub Boost of Oxygen contains a fine granule that physically exfoliates your skin, the processed oils immediately nourish your skin to achieve a silky soft result.

4. Pamper your skin with the right nutrition
Feed your skin with the right ingredients and ensure that the skin barrier is always in balance. A barrier that does not work properly will cause problems such as large pores, but also oily or dry skin. Treat your skin to an intense facial mask at least once a week and also provide a portion of hydration every day with a day and night cream .
5. Clean your sheets
An unexpected culprit in the battle against clogged pores are your sheets and especially your pillow cover! Even if you cleanse your face before going to sleep, you still produce sebum throughout the night, which ends up on your pillow. So replace your pillow cover very regularly so that you don't give those dirty bacteria a chance!
