More beautiful skin: 5 effective tips against oily skin and large pores

Our pores are vital and allow our skin to breathe. However, if they are enlarged, especially on the face, and our sebum production is too active, this not only looks unattractive, but impurities also form quickly. With the right care and cleansing, your complexion can glow again. We reveal five skincare tips to combat oily skin and large pores.

If you are prone to large pores and oily skin, you should definitely use the right skincare.

1 Apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a natural home remedy for large pores. It is used like a facial toner: Simply drizzle it onto a cotton pad as usual before your skincare routine and use it to cleanse your face. The skin is tightened and the apple cider vinegar also has an anti-inflammatory effect.

2 Cleansing

Proper cleansing is essential for clean and radiant skin. This means removing excess sebum and dirt from the face in the morning and evening with oil-free cosmetics. Use so-called "pore minimizers", i.e. pore-refining care products.

3 Go to the sauna regularly

If you like going to the sauna, you are also doing something good for your skin. The heat opens the pores and dirt and toxins are simply sweated out.

4 Cold water

Warm water stimulates sebum production. It is therefore better to wash your face with cold water.

5 Healing clay masks

If you are prone to oily skin and blemishes, you can apply a healing clay mask to your face once or twice a week. It binds the sebum and clears the pores.
