There are so many clips on YouTube about this. But three key routines are regular exfoliation, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding foods and pollutants that cause inflammatory or allergic reactions to your body. As for the skincare products, start from doing your research on the Internet and YouTube.

I am not a skin care specialist or anyone who is in that field, but what I like to use is charcoal masks and nose strips

Regularly cleanse the face. EXFOLIATING is the key to get rid of clogged pores. Make it twice a week as much as possible.

Look for a good clay mask. After cleansing, use an exfoliating scrub and gently massage your face (not eyes) with it. Rinse it off. Use a toner and on a cotton pad sweep it all over your face. Apply the clay mask. Rinse. Use the toner again to sweep away any excess dead skin, etc. A Niacinamide serum is great for pores! MAKE SURE TO MOISTURIZE! Use the mask no more than maybe 3x a week. You will begin to see results after the first week.

Clogged pores are usually caused by the buildup of oils and dead skin cells. Exfoliating the skin approx 2-3 times per week, dependent on your skin type (3 times for very oily) can help unblock pores. You can exfoliate your skin using a face mask. Consider getting some professional advice about your skin type and the best products for your skin. Good luck.

Wash your face regulary, twice a day so that you unclog them from dirt and oils. You can also go get a facial, that should help too.

You should maintain a skincare routine, try some products with salicylic acid, my recommendation is any gel cleanser from La Roche Posay.

I use a facial scrub a couple times a week, and always try to wash away all my makeup before bedtime. I work with skincare and I think it’s really important to know your skin type and to choose the products that works best for your skin. It can cost a bit, but it will be so worth it at the end (and your skin will thank you later in life, I promise! πŸ˜˜πŸ™πŸ»πŸ’•

Good question! I recommend exfoliating once a week with a gentle exfoliator if you have sensitive skin, and wash your face everyday, once in the morning and once at night, and avoid using vaseline on your face, and avoid using baby oil on your face, they both might clog your pores and make them worse, I have also tried using peel-off masks, they remove the dirt from your pores and leave you feeling fresh!
