Silence is my trade. This flash, you can't shrink your pores, but you can do these three things to help minimize their appearance so they don't look dotted all over. And I'm going to give you one last tip for those who are really adventurous at the end of this video. Number one, sal acid. It's an exfoliating acid that loves oil. It's going to go in deep, it's going to stick to the oil and it's going to take all that out of your face. Number two, sulfur. Sulfur is also a great add on. It will dry you out. So you want to use this two to three times a week. Don't overdo it. Number three, retinols are great, but you probably will not be able to tolerate it here where you get them because you will flake. So use a retinol eye cream instead in this area. And number four, for those of you guys who are really just oily and your pores are large because you make a lot of oil, taking Accutane at a very low dose, like 20 milligrams once a week can make a huge difference. Follow along for more tips.
