Anyone actually go from visible sebaceous filaments & enlarged pores to smoother looking skin?
(41)Been dealing with this for a while now and I already know the usual pores are genetic talk. I recently read an article saying enlarged pores aren’t just about oil or congestion, but also dehydration and overall texture imbalance, and that going too harsh with actives can sometimes make pores look more visible instead of improving them.
Before that, I got influenced by TikTok skincare influencers so I tried the COSRX Salicylic Acid Cleanser thinking it would help with my pores and sebaceous filaments. It didn’t really do much long term and actually gave me breakouts, so I stopped and went back to a mild cleanser just to calm my skin down again. Now I’m just trying to figure out what actually works without messing up my skin barrier
