Our skin is covered in pores. These small openings release oil and sweat and play an important role when it comes to healthy-looking skin. When pores are congested, skin feels rough, bumpy, looks dull and pores become enlarged. Consistent exfoliation with chemical exfoliators like PHAs, BHAs or AHAs help minimize the look of pores and reduce dead skin cells, blackheads and buildup to leave skin looking smoother and healthier.

When pores are clogged, skin may feel bumpy. Regular exfoliation will help resurface skin, decongest and clear out pores so skin feels smoother and softer.

All skin types can benefit from the decongesting and skin-smoothing benefits of regular pore care. If your skin is sensitive or easily irritated by exfoliators with acids, try using gentler formulas with moisturizing ingredients or chemical exfoliators (like PHAs) that are less likely to irritate and dry out sensitive skin.

Yes, consistent exfoliation will help reduce dead skin cells and dissolve skin-dulling buildup, which helps skin look brighter and more radiant.

Using an exfoliating serum or toner daily is a great way to add pore care and resurfacing benefits into your skincare regimen.

Add a deep pore cleansing treatment mask to your regimen 2-3 times a week to help reduce blackheads, buildup and dead skin cells and keep pores looking small and tight.
