Large pores |
|
|
Enlarged pores are a nuisance, so exfoliate daily with 7 Day Scrub Cream Rinse Off Formula and get into Clinique's Pore Minimizing products (see next tip). We recommend Turnaround lotion for deep cleansing. |

Pore-minimizer Powder Foundation Makeup |

|
Use powder rubdown technique: pour loose powder into palm of hand, rub palms together, then "wash" entire face with powder from hairline to chin. Brush off excess with brush. Makes pores seem to disappear. Provides a silken, flawless finish. |

Steer clear of blemishes |
|
|
The best prevention is a skincare system suited to your specific skin type, including effective oil control. １２３ Step Skin Care System, Deep Cleansing Emergency Mask and Anti-Blemish Solutions products, when added to your 3-Step System, help prevent and reduce breakout. Conceal with Anti-Blemish Solutions Concealing Cream or concealing stick. Smooth over with oil-free makeup powder. Keep hair and hands off face, both can carry oil and dirt. |

Stress |
|
|
Stress from job pressures and/or the demands of household chores are factors that can contribute to breakouts. Birth control pills high in certain progestogens can cause breakouts, too. Using the wrong cleansers or cosmetics can aggravate clogged pores and blemishes. To keep skin clear, remove makeup with a pre-soap cleanser geared for your skin type, followed by your Clinique １２３Step routine. Moisturise only the dry areas. |

Sun and Blemish |
|
|
Don't be fooled by the myth that sun dries out pimples. Sun exposure may dry skin slightly, but the effect is temporary. Heat, humidity, and UV rays can actually aggravate acne by stimulating oil production and thickening skin, which clogs pores. Sun causes both premature aging and cancer. Use Sun Protection and fake a tan with one of Clinique's Self-Tanning formulas. |

Concealing my blemishes |
|
|
Resist the temptation to conceal blemishes with a heavy makeup base or concealer, both of which may contain oils. Try Anti-Blemish Solutions Concealing Stick, which covers as it heals the breakout. |
