Any beauty tricks or home remedies that make pores smaller? I've used a makeup but I mean something that could have a permanent or long time effect.

All I know is that when you clean your face, rinse with cold water.

Before washing with face wash, turn the water hot and let the steam open your pores. Then wash. After that, rinse with cold water to minimize and close your pores.

One packet of gelatin plus 1 1/2 tablespoon milk, microwaved for ten seconds, or until warm (but not hot). use make up brush to apply to nose, forehead, and chin with a make up brush, wait for 15 to 20 minutes then peel off. Removes pores and keeps skin clean, I do it once every two weeks :) also too faced primed and poreless primer makes them look invisable, and if you don't want to spend 30 bucks NYX has a cheap dupe. xxx

You can't shrink your pores. it's impossible. here's some information I found though..
To reduce the appearance of large pores, start by keeping them clean. Use a gentle cleanser twice a day, but you should also use it after you sweat to prevent oil from building up. Just be careful not to scrub too much: When you over-wash, your skin responds as if it's dried out, so it produces more oil to compensate. That just makes your problem worse. For the same reason, be sure to not scrub your skin with a washcloth or other abrasive materials. Using an exfoliating cleanser once a week will also help, because it breaks down dead skin cells that clog pores and can give your skin a smoother appearance. Pore-minimizing creams contain ingredients that boost the skin's production of?glycoaminoglycans, which help to firm the skin around pores, minimizing their appearance [source:?Crawford].Next, take some preventive steps to eliminate or avoid factors that contribute to the appearance of large pores. By applying a topical retinoid solution, you can not only reduce the appearance of large pores, but you can also dissolve bacteria that cause acne and treat sun damage at the same time -- two factors that contribute to pores looking larger than usual. And, of course, you should always use sunscreen to protect your skin and keep large pores from becoming worse [source:?Villett].

@Jes T. I'm not sure if you just wrote too fast, but you can't remove your pores.. maybe you meant make them less visible?

@lili lol yeah, things make sense in my head but when I type them out sometimes it comes out awkward. I mean removing appearence of pore, It unclogs your pores and removes dirt and bacteria, preventing breakouts and making them less visable. :)
