Get the Most Out of Your Pore Corrector With These 5 Hacks

Unlike cleansers and moisturizers, the benefits of adding a Pore Corrector to your skincare routine aren't always so obvious. We wash our face to remove dirt and makeup and we alleviate dry skin by re-hydrating it, but what does Pore Corrector actually do? Actually, a lot more than you may think.

On the most basic level, it is a post-cleansing step in your skincare routine that catches any makeup and leftover residue, restores the skin’s pH levels, and replenishes skin. Depending on the type of Pore Corrector you use, you may also find fringe benefits like smaller pores, reduced dark spots and acne marks, and a smoother, brighter looking complexion.

But just because a product is made for one thing doesn’t mean it can’t be used for something else. In fact, there are several unconventional ways you can incorporate this multi-faceted product into your regimen. Read on for 5 off-label uses for Pore Corrector that you probably never thought of.

Exfoliate Your Lips 
Seeking a smoother pucker? Instead of up stocking up on lip masks or concocting on your scrub, swipe our Pore Corrector over your lips to gently slough off dead skin cells. We recommend topping it off with moisture, like any conditioning lip oil.

Use It as After-Shave
To prevent ingrown hairs or razor burn, try swiping an exfoliating, acid-based Pore Corrector across your body post-shave. A Pore Corrector cleansing and exfoliating properties will get rid of any dead skin and excess hair that can otherwise clog pores and cause irritation. 

Create De-Puffing Eye Masks
Curate a spa-level experience in your own bathroom with a hydrating Pore Corrector. Cut a cotton round in half and soak it with product, then leave under your eyes to re-hydrate skin and target dark circles. For an extra de-puffing effect, cool off your pore corrector in the fridge before applying. 

Ensure Your Sunless Tan Is Even
No matter how diligent we are, self-tanners always run the risk of creating blotchy, uneven looking skin. Prior to application, swipe pore corrector over “risky” areas like elbows and knees so tanner goes on more smoothly. If you spot post-tanning streaks, don’t panic. Use your Pore Corrector to gently exfoliate problem areas and create a more natural looking bronze. 

Use It as a Refreshing Spritz
Freshen up your skin anytime, anywhere by creating your own facial mist. Grab a spray bottle and mix filtered water and Pore Corrector in a 2:1 ratio. Keep at your desk or on-the-go for whenever you're feeling dry or are simply in need of a midday refresh.
