Which oil(s) should be used against blackheads and enlarged pores?

Enlarged pores and blackheads are typically observed on the T-zone of the face, spanning from the forehead, down the nose, to the chin. However, in the case of oily skin, these imperfections can be found across the entire face. They give the skin a grainy and uneven appearance. Nevertheless, there are many other factors that can contribute to the occurrence of enlarged pores and blackheads:

• An unhealthy lifestyle : Smoking, alcohol, stress, or an unbalanced diet can disrupt the activity of the sebaceous glands;

• Theenvironment : Heat, sun exposure, and pollution promote the dilation of pores, the thickening of the stratum corneum, the overproduction of sebum, and therefore the development of blackheads;

• Unsuitable cosmetic care: The use of overly harsh or comedogenic treatments can clog pores and thus trap sebum;

• Hormonal fluctuations : Puberty, menstrual cycle, changes in contraception, or menopause... these are times when blackheads are likely to appear.
