How to shrink pores?

My skin is not elastic by genetics, so my pores will not shrink on their own even though its only been 2 years. Anything to help shrink them before they become permanant?

You mention that it's been two years... two years since what? I can't exactly see what you're trying to say other than that you want to shrink pores. Unfortunately, there really is no way to shrink pores permanently. I have large pores myself and have tried various creams and masks that don't really do a whole lot. Maybe there are some professional treatments out there, but I imagine they'd be really, really expensive. I guess if you have the money and time you could look into that.
Otherwise you kinda just have to live with it, and just make sure you wash and moistuize your skin regularly to avoid clogging of pores which makes them look even bigger and more obvious.

I was going to ask the same thing - 2 year since what??

If you find an answer you'll be a millionaire! I've been trying to find something for years!

Re: How to shrink pores?

Definitely use the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask. It is AMAZING!

I, too, had HUGE pores for years. After using the mask about 2x per week for the past few weeks, my pores have shrunk significantly. I also am extremely oily, and this has greatly helped control oil.

It is also very cheap (less than $4 for a large tube). I highly recommend it!!!
