SHRINK YOUR PORES: TIPS FROM A DERMATOLOGIST| DR DRAY

[@Hopeful-w7h]

My pores are much less visible just by following your advise to double cleanse, moisture, no fragrance and sunscreen. Simple is best!

[@mOnika-pt6vk]

I recently started her routine, and I have noticed significant difference in my skin.

[@Kerifiable]

Yes! Keep it simple. I've always had oily, oily skin/large pores, but also super sensitive. i thought I didn't need moisturizer because I was oily. WRONG. Don't ya love how Dr. Dray answers all of the lingering questions we have?? Each and every video has dozens of pearls of wisdom.

1) Sunscreen (broad spectrum with niacinamide) 2) Moisturiser (oil-free, ceramics) 3) active ingredients to clean pores - salicylic acid (+green tea extract / beta-hydroxy acids / retinoids (gel) / Vitamin A) active ingredients can be drying so you must moisturise (use active ingredients on problem areas only & only AFTER moisturiser & at night)! 4) stop smoking! 5) cosmetic peels (but still need to do all the above) / IPL+Suction laser (not long lasting, still need to do the above) / resurfacing lasers / LED light mask

[@karenlynch4000]

I'm almost 70 and had very oily, acne prone skin all my teen and adult life. In those days the conventional advice was to overcleanse, use harsh levels of acne medications & stay away from all moisturizers (they were mostly oily and occlusive then). Sunscreen was almost unknown. As a result I have scarring from cystic acne and very large pores. I wish I had known then what I know now. My point is LISTEN TO DR DRAY, PLEASE.

Thank you! I've been smoking about a pack a day for some time now - maybe 2-3 months - and I've noticed that the pores around my nose got really nasty, visibly bigger and extremely clogged. And worse - it seems like this trend is spreading across my entire face with a very disturbing pace. I've taken action by investing into a few new cleansers and creams as realistically this is the easier part I could immediately make happen. The other that is easier said than done is obviously quit smoking as it is a very smelly and pricey habit that has done me no favors. Anyways, really enjoyed the vid and will be implementing a lot of what is in it. :)

My favorite salicylic acid product is by by Organys, available on Amazon. They are economical pads soaked in 20% glycolic acid/0.5% salicylic acid. I am middle aged but still get some acne. While it's not as bad as when I was younger, the acne that I do get tend to leave hyperpigmentation. I like that it is primarily anti aging, but a touch of salicylic acid keeps the remaining acne at bay. These pads are strong, so unless you are an experienced acid queen such as myself, you may need to space out the applications. I find that I get best results when I keep my skin slightly crispy. Just don't apply and then go outside in the sun, even with sunscreen- ouch! Before bed is a good time to use the pads.

I'm almost 32 and had been struggling with really, really bad acne, redness, and bad eczema until I tried Differin gel and some other stuff cause of Dr. Dray's videos. I use a washcloth to occasionally exfoliate. Day time: I use a sulfur bar soap from CVS. After I wash, I apply a little CeraVe moisturizing cream to my completely wet face and neck. After 20 minutes I apply my over the counter Differn gel to my face and neck. After it completely dries, I apply my sunscreen. I use chemical sunscreen (banana boat invisible spray) SPF 50 if I will be wearing makeup. If I don't plan on wearing makeup, I use banana boat sport SPF 100. At night, I do the same routine minus the SPF. I started out with the Differin gel once every other day cause it was soooooo drying and my skin started to purge and got way worse. After 2 weeks, my skin started to tolerate it. In a month, my skin was cleared for the first time in over 15 years. It can take up to 3 months for you to see a major difference, but it is great. Watch Dr. Dray's other videos on Differin gel prior to use to find out what not to use and do in conjunction with the gel cause not following her advice will make the gel not work effectively. I strongly suggest trying my routine or something similar cause my acne is GONE, finally. If I would have done this sooner, I would have saved my skin from scarring so much.

Hi! If someone had told me younger than sunscreen was the solution for beautiful skin, I would have done it long before. When we were younger, we were only told that sunscreen was good for not getting sunburned and for avoiding skin cancers. But we didn't talk so much about all these skin problems. I'm lucky, I don't have too many problems with my pores. I would tell young men and women to start applying sunscreen very early. We should do more prevention! Yes, we do it for cancer, but if we added the other negative factors, there would surely be more people making it their routine!

Dr Dray, salycilic acid is the key to me! But, as I read before, It only works well in PHs lower than 4. I have The Ordinary salycilic acid 2% and it's good, and very tolerable for my skin even tough It has witch hazel. Two questions I'd like to ask: how can we know If the product which contains salycilic acid is in the correct PH and LHA studies are not extended. Can we trust in LHA and LHA is able to work in higher PH?

I am going to be 35 this September. I’ve always been known for my great skin. I was told that I look very young for my age. Until recently. I’ve noticed that my skin is starting to age. I’ve been focusing a lot more on my skin care lately. I’ve always had a pretty normal skincare routine, but I’ve never had to really do more than the 3 step process like Clinique. I’ve been using the 3 step number 2 skincare routine from Clinique for about 17 years now. It has always worked. But I’ve noticed my pores around my nose and cheeks are just so much more noticeable and my forehead is oily. I am going to try some of these products and hopefully they help. Thank you. Also, I tried Clinique under eye cream. But I woke up with puffy eyes after using it… why is that? My Korean friend is in her 50’s but still has 20 year old skin and zero wrinkles.. she said I should just eat kimchi but is K beauty products worth it? Such as cosrx?

[@jasminecelis3544]

Hi Dr. Dray. Love your content. I was wondering if you could cover sebaceous filaments, more specifically on the nose, and how to reduce their appearance. I’ve been trying all sorts of salicylic acid products with very minimal results. Thank you!

[@candicegerman2748]

I've noticed with age my pores on my nose and chin have enlarged ( my cheeks are dry - nose/ chin are oily ) - I'm not sure why exactly .

[@gadee6039]

yessssss can she PLEASE do a video on this

[@janelle009]

Yessssss and I have a larger nose so it's the last thing I want happening 😕

[@M_K_M_K_M_K]

Jasmine Celis I think I read on Paulas Choice website about sebaceous filaments and that things like exfoliants dont work for them, because they are not the same. I personally just leave it and if it gets a little too much I squeeze the skin a bit. Sorry TMI ;).

[@dianabout9406]

Every video I’ve seen where you address large pores, you mention oily skin. However, my skin is not oily and my pores are HUGE! Is this uncommon and would you still follow the same line of advice? I know I’m late to the game of watching this video, but it would we awesome to hear your opinion! P.S. Thanks for clearly and conscient breaking down a topic that so often gets twisted and misrepresented by marketing!

[@520dm]

I have pretty bad acne but it has gotten so much better since I started washing my face how you suggest. My question now is do you recommend for me to use la roche posay effaclar serum as part of my morning routine? Also is my wash face wash routine good? TIA love your videos!! My face wash routine goes as follows. Morning: La roche posay effaclar medicated gel cleanser Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream Cetaphil lightweight moisturizing lotion Night time: Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser Cetaphil lightweight moisturizer La roche posay effaclar DUO

I’m 24 years old and my friends think I’m crazy cause I care so much about my skin. It’s okay they’ll understand when we’re all 50 and they look 80 and I look 30 :)

[@hiralmehta1460]

Same! Especially when I reapply sunscreen! 😂

[@lonewolf1369]

It's highly unlikely you will look 30 when you're 50. The fact of the matter is aging will win in the end and no amount of time and money spent on doing all these things will make someone look 20 years younger especially to those who can guess age well and already know about skin care.

[@chiuyuehchung8794]

Hi! Can I use Differin gel (before) Neostrata High Potency R (recommended for my dermatologist) at night? I’m 44 with acne, hyperpigmentation, very enlarge pores and a lot of wrinkles and fine lines. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us, you are awesome!

Would you do a video about Asian sunscreens? And also about "most elegant texture" sunscreens pls?

[@amyangel9229]

Dr. Dray is my hero! I do have a question on pores. I had horrible acne all my life. I am now 45 and my skin is dry except in my t zone. My question is all these products are for oily skin so what do you suggest for mature skin to reduce pores?

[@rossttyvelez2614]

I am a huge fan. I really love your videos. I have a question, I am 19 years old, at what age can I start using retinoids? Thank you 🙏🏼, great video.

[@tris7152]

Rosstty Velez I’m 22 and also wondering this

[@OhlordyOh]

It is already suitable for acne in young people :) but if you're concern is anti-aging dr dray or Google gotta help you there

[@cwarrior8153]

The problem I have with salicylic acid is it tends to cause white head acne at the same time fighting other types of acne. I use a facial steamer or sauna to clean out my pores as well as the moisturizer. It shrunk my pores completely

My skin is on the drier side and I use Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA (salicylic acid) Lotion.

[@theeluannesantos]

@@beautyinsideout6422 I can't use a clay mask on my skin. It makes it drier. Thanks anyway

[@MellieDarcy]

I have very dry skin too and recently moved to a more humid climate. It’s so weird because you think the opposite would be true, but my pores have been looking smaller since my skin has been slightly less dry. I can’t even begin to explain it but I’m not going to complain 😂

[@suzsiz]

REN has a detoxifying clay mask which I love. Also garnier has a black coal sheet mask which really cleans the skin and shrinks pores.

[@mariebrown8632]

I seriously appreciate your videos so much

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks for watching

[@lizscott5967]

THANK YOU! My pores are not too bad but I noticed nightly cleansing and moisture really have helped. BTW - I just started using the Haba laba plumping gel, I can already see a difference just within a few days LOVE IT! Can you please do a video on black heads on the nose? Super gross, I have used the Clarisonic brush to deep clean, but I think you had mentioned that it was too rough. Anyhow, any ideas, recommendations? thanks (: Happy Tuesday

[@autumnsirota]

Great video! Im so glad I found you. Thanks to you I am wearing sunscreen and I know my skin will be thanking me. I would love to hear your thoughts on the Trader Joe's skin care products.

[@persephoneblack888]

I use Saturday Skin's water cream. Is that one good to use? At night I use a heavy cream with cermides and niacinamide. It's an overnight cream which I love (it's an equate knock off for neutrogena).

[@jaclynelise2966]

Can you do a video just on which cosmetic procedures you recommend getting done, I mean ones at either a dermatologist office or with an esthetician.

Can you do a video about blue light rays,myth, should we be worried or is it a gimmick?..

[@TheEagleslover]

Happy Tuesday Dr. Dray. I use the LaRoche Posay (60 and 50) with no problems and I'm glad to know they aren't going to exacerbate my pore situation. I've been testing the Innis Free PA 50++++ with no issue so far. Now, it looks like I have other options if I get bored with what my current routine. TFS as always.

[@yuliache5136]

1. How often would you recommend using La Roche-Posay BHA/AHA/LHA serum? I have a combination skin, and my current routine mostly keeps the oil under control. Using different products containing BHA before almost always resulted in unmanageable dryness. Just trying to figure out the routine that would help instead of harming 😊 2. Pores are only concerning in a few areas. Should I be targeting those, or go over the entire face? (You might've said it, sorry if I missed it). PS. I really enjoy your content, thanks for sharing your knowledge! Much love from Canada.

[@MorningsWithMaria]

she mentioned it at 13:21

[@emmaeinarsson6963]

I followed her advice, now I’m using a lot of CeraVe products, no fragrance and no oil, I bought one of the sunscreen product she recommended, elta broad spectrum spf 46 and I bought a the ordinary salicylic acid and one peeling mask too, Aha 30% BHA 2% and my skin is thriving! I used 2 weeks and I already see my skin is looking so much better. And it was during my period! I always get pimples before it comes. But then one day I dropped my salicylic acid in the floor and broken, my pimples come back after 2 days. I never knew how important Salicylic acid is. And I see so clearly how my skin changing so quick when I start use AND stop using

[@randig7503]

Thanks for the tips 🌸 also wanted to let you know Kerasal, not only worked amazingly well for my feet 🦶 but also my elbows. I know it wasn’t recommended for elbows... but it works 😊

Before I started tretinoin my pores where huge . Now their small and not to much noticable I can really tell when I apply makeup it's nice and smooth and my makeup looks really good now thx to dr dray and tretnion 👌❤

[@lizbeth.c6734]

Dr.dray I was question I was using the cerave hydrating cleanser and it really stringed my face really bad and I switched over to the cetaphil gentle cleaner I knoe you dont like it but I was really really devastated that I didnt knoe which one to choose that's why I choose that one and it doesnt sting my face . I've tried the cerave foaming one I like it but it's to drying for me any recommendations dr dray of course from walmart or I can buy on Amazon as well as long as it isnt to expensive thank you andrea 😊
