Clearer, Cleaner, Smaller-Looking Pores Can Be Yours Thanks to our MicroFusion Technology™
Clearly, thorough cleansing is a must when it comes to creating cleaner, smaller-looking pores. It's the first line of defense in dissolving the dirt, makeup, sunscreen, and pollutants that can clog and enlarge them and even cause blemishes.
But sometimes, basic cleansing isn't enough to keep pores clear and under control. If we're daily foundation and/or sunscreen wearers, have oily, blemish-prone skin on the one hand or dry, flaky skin on the other, or are in environments that expose our skin to extra grime or toxins, our pores likely could use something more powerful to refine them.
Enter the growing number of pore-refining cleansers on the market. Some of these specialized facial washes can have several benefits, including temporarily helping to minimize pore appearance and improving skin texture through deep cleansing and exfoliating skin. They can also help regulate oil production.
However, they may also have some unwanted side effects, including irritation and peeling due to harsh combinations or percentages of certain ingredients. They can also cause sun sensitivity. In addition, pore-refining foaming cleansers may contain surfactants that can dry out skin, as can those that include certain antibacterial acne-fighting ingredients.
Powered by our patented MicroFusion Technology™, our PRELUDE Facial Treatment Cleanser acts like a magnet to draw out micro-pollutants and pore-clogging debris that can cause inflammation, blemishes, redness, and accelerated aging. Designed for daily use, we formulate it with gentle resurfacing AHAs, botanicals, antioxidants, and fulvic acid to effectively cleanse away makeup, excess oils, and impurities while maintaining a healthy, balanced biome.
