Pore Strips in Acne Treatments

Pore strips

Pore strips claim to remove excess oil and blackheads from the pores. Use them on your nose and face for clearer skin.

There are pore strips specifically designed for the nose and some that you can place on your forehead as well. These areas make up the T-zone, which is prone to excess oil for some people. Some pore strips include the addition of charcoal, which is good at absorbing excess oil and helpful for people with very oily skin.

To reduce the size of your pores while removing blackheads, choose pore strips with witch hazel, which is an astringent that works to shrink pores. Pore strips can dry out skin for some people, so those who are prone to dryness should use these strips less often.
