We know it can be frustrating to deal with persistent blackheads and large pores. Let us introduce you to the two hero ingredients you can incorporate into your routine to clear your pores and reduce their size.
One important thing: don’t use pore strips. These stretch pores when you peel them off, making them appear larger and more prone to future blockages. Instead, look to salicylic acid and niacinamide. Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble chemical exfoliator, this means it can get deep into the pores to flush out impurities. Niacinamide (also known as vitamin B3) is a powerful antioxidant and helps shrink pores by stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Try our Salicylic Fix Blackhead Steam Mask 8% 2-3 times a week. This thermo-active gel mask combines exfoliating and hydrating ingredients tominimise the appearance of blackheads, reduce the look of enlarged poresand control excess oil for your smoothest t-zone ever.
Use our Salicylic Fix Night Pads in the evening after cleansing, 2-3 times a week.
For younger (or more sensitive) skin, try pairing our Teen Skin Fix Pore Blaster Wash, containing salicylic acid, with the Oil Control Moisturiser, containing niacinamide.
