5 truths about enlarged pores and Korea's hottest solutions

Enlarged pores are the main culprit for rough-looking skin. Everyone has pores, but why do some people have smooth and tight faces, while my face looks like a rough orange peel? Let the popular Korean stars use the hottest Korean method to solve the problem!

Truth 1: Water shortage

When the dermis of the skin lacks moisture, the epidermal cells will begin to shrink, and problems such as pores and wrinkles will become particularly obvious, so it is very important to moisturize the skin.

Celebrity Tips: Lee Young-ae - Drink More Water

"My main concern is how to maintain clear skin. Every morning when I wake up, I drink a glass of water (mineral water).

My skin is thin and dries easily, so the first thing to do is to provide moisture to the skin. I drink at least ten glasses of water throughout the day, starting with my first glass of water in the morning.

If the skin is not cleaned thoroughly for a long time, it will affect the skin's metabolism and the shedding of the aging stratum corneum, and the pores will expand. Get yourself a beauty card and go to a beauty salon regularly to exfoliate!

Celebrity Tips: Ha Ji-won – Go to a beauty salon for treatments

Ha Ji-won has oily skin with large pores and active skin secretions, so she pays great attention to skin cleansing. In addition to washing your face carefully, you should also frequently use natural facial masks made from flour, starch, and chestnut peels, which are said to be particularly effective for oily skin.

In order to clean her skin, Ha Ji-won often applies a hot towel to her face, about 2 to 3 times a week. After expanding the pores by applying the towel, she uses a firming lotion refrigerated in the refrigerator to shrink the pores. In addition to doing it herself, Ha Ji-won goes to a beauty salon once a week to receive professional treatments and goes for a SPA when she has time.

As we age, the blood circulation in the skin slows down and the fat layer under the skin becomes loose and less elastic. Without proper care, the skin will age faster and the pores will naturally expand.

Celebrity Tips: Son Ye-jin - Mask + Toner

The specific method is: first apply a hot towel to your face, and then apply a facial mask. This can effectively remove sebum and prevent the accumulation of skin excretions that cause the pores to become larger. Finally, dip a cotton pad refrigerated in the refrigerator into toner, apply it all over the face, and gently pat to shrink the pores.

The sebum secretion in the T-zone is particularly strong. When excessive oil accumulates on the surface of the hair follicles, it will cause the pores to swell and become enlarged.

Stars' advice: Lee Hyori - Ice is the secret weapon

Lee Hyori attaches great importance to basic daily care. She washes her face every morning and evening, applies toner and makeup lotion, and never slacks off.

To deal with large pores, Lee Hyori's secret trick is to deal with eye bags at the same time. The method is: put an iron spoon in the ice tray of the refrigerator the night before, and put the frozen spoon on the eyes after waking up. It will instantly wake you up, eliminate all eye swelling, and shrink pores at the same time.

When caring for your skin, if the method is not appropriate, it will also cause the pores to become larger. Take blackhead removal as an example. If we press the skin hard and casually, it will easily cause the surface layer of the skin to break. Once the dermis is damaged, it will be difficult for the skin to produce new cells, and the pores will also become obvious and enlarged.
