Women everywhere spend countless hours and dollars searching for the perfect products to perfect their skin. Well, ladies, search no more. The style gurus at the Muse have found four products that will tone and tighten your skin while visibly reducing pores.
The first step to flawless skin is exfoliation. We found that Dove Essential Nutrients Cleansing Pillows, available at CVS for $15, not only exfoliate the dead skin cells of your face, but hydrate while they clean. After washing your face, follow with a toner pad that contains salicylic or glycolic acid, which continues to exfoliate while tightening the skin and shrinking those pores. Try N.V. Perricone MD Cosmeceuticals’ Pore Refining Toner Pads, available at Sephora Prudential for $35. Use them twice daily and we swear that you’ll be satisfied. You’ll still need to moisturize with these products pick a moisturizing cream, lotion or gel that suits your skin type. For normal skin, may we recommend Benefit-Cosmetic’s Do It Daily, available at Benefit Cosmetics.com for $18. This ultra-light moisturizer contains vitamin E and has an SPF of 12 for added protection against the sun.
If you want to go the extra mile to reduce your pores try Astara’s Violet Flame Enzyme Mask for an intense-yet-satisfying treatment. The mask is an enzyme based product that promotes circulation to your face while tightening your pores, but be careful if you have sensitive skin, this mask means business. Grab Astara’s mask at Sephora.com for $37.
