There’s basic ways to shrink your pores, and while most just use things like witch hazel, there is a treatment regimen that will both clear your acne and shrink your pores as small as they are actually going to shrink.  First of all, you have to cleanse.  If you don’t cleanse, you can’t wash away impurities, dirt, oils, you get the idea. 

1. Use a good cleanser that is gentle and preferably has good acne fighting ingredients such as tea tree oil.  This should also actually be more of a scrub, because you really want to exfoliate away dead skin cells that could easily be clogging the pores. 

2. you want to use a good toner.  A toner is applied to in a way close your pores so they appear less visible at that time.  Don’t use a toner with alcohol, there are plenty that don’t have harsh or damaging ingredients. 

3.  moisturize.  Moisturizing will help you to protect and care for your skin, and whether you use harsher treatments or not, it is always necessary.  Many have also found that when they use a mask on an occasional basis, that also helps with various  needs and in short helps them to really take better of their skin as a whole to get the results and benefits they are looking for.
