I shrunk my pores with my silly little skincare hack – I’ll still be using my French skincare staple when I’m 80
A SKINCARE expert has revealed how she minimized the appearance of her pores.
She said the hack changed her nose and she'll probably be following the same routine when she's a mature woman.
TikToker Natalie O'Neill (@natalie_oneillll) shares her thoughts about retinoids and sunscreen.
She made a post specifically about her nose when she discovered La Roche Posay's Cicaplast, a staple in French skincare.
"Me when I’m 80 years old still using my silly little LRP Cicaplast hack for sebaceous filaments because it works so well," the guru wrote.
The ointment can be purchased via Amazon for $15.99 and has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars, based on more than 15,000 reviews.
Natalie called it "the hack that changed my nose."
She said you can't get rid of sebaceous filaments or pores since "they're a natural part of the face," but they can be managed.
Natalie applies a pea-sized amount of Cicaplast and rubs it on the tip of her nose.
"I stumbled upon this hack of applying a tiny bit of La Roche Posay Cicaplast on the tip and sides of my nose by accident," she said.
By moisturizing her nose instead of exfoliating it, she realized her pores and sebaceous filaments appeared less dilated.
"All you need to do is apply a tiny bit of Cicaplast to your nose after the rest of your evening skincare has sunk in a bit," Natalie wrote.
"I don’t recommend using Cicaplast on the rest of your face if you’re acne or clog-prone," she continued.
Commenters agreed that hydrating instead of exfoliating could be the best way skincare trick.
"I've realized too about the hydration hack," one wrote.
"I stopped exfoliating and damaging my skin and instead focused on hydration," the person added.
"I will absolutely be trying this. Thank you for your service," a second said.
"Been doing this every other night since I saw your first vid on it and it’s been great. Thanks, queen," a third posted.
