What is available is the reduction of pore visibility and a noticeable improvement in skin texture. With the right skincare routine and active ingredients, the skin can achieve a smoother, clearer, and more balanced appearance.
In this guide, we will show you why pores appear larger and which Maruderm products can help improve the condition of your skin.
Why do pores become more visible?
The appearance of pores is primarily influenced by three main factors:
1. Increased sebum production
If the skin produces more oil, the pores can expand and become clogged more easily. This is especially common in oily or combination skin types.
2. Accumulation of dead skin cells
Dead cells and sebum can clog the pores together, leading to blackheads and an uneven skin surface.
3.Loss of elasticity and decrease in collagen
As we age, the skin loses its firmness, making the pores more pronounced.
The good news: these processes can be effectively influenced with proper skincare.
1. The first step: gentle yet effective cleansing
Regular facial cleansing helps remove sebum, dirt, and makeup residues that can clog the pores.
Recommended product:

Usage: morning and evening.
2.Exfoliation: the key to cleaner pores
Chemical exfoliants help remove dead skin cells and deeply cleanse the pores.
