Enlarged pores - Zvětšené póry

 

It's good to say in the beginning that enlarged pores are genetic and they will never totally disappear the only thing we could do is to take a good care of our skin so this annoying skin issue will not get worst and stick to a routine that will eliminate the size of the pores.

Also i will tell you a bit more about procedures you can undertake these days that have proven to come out with good results.

Hned na začátek je dobre si říci, že zvětšené póry jsou genetickou záležitostí a úplně nikdy nezmizí, jediné co můžeme udělat s pleti, která tímto problémem trpí je se o ni správně starat tak, aby se tento nepříjemný úkaz co nejvíce eliminoval a nezhorsoval se. 

Take vam reknu vice o procedurach, Ktere muzete podstoupit, a Ktere maji prokazatelne dobre vysledky. 

What a pore is ? 

Co je to pór ? 

EN: Pores are small opening in the skin where are sebaceous gland, which produces your skin's oils.
Around the pore all the dirt, dead skin etc. are accumulating once all this clogges the pore it can cause inflammation. That is why it is so important to take care of the skin when someone suffers with enlarged pores.

CZ: Por je maly otvurek v kuzi, kde jsou mazove zlazy, ktere produkuji mastnotu.
Okolo poru se shormazduje vsechna spina, mrtva kuze atd., jakmile se tohle vse nahromadi uvnitr poru muze dojit na miste k zanetu. Proto je velice dulezite pecovat o plet, ktera trpi na zvetsene pory.
 

Why people have enlarged pores ?

Proč mají lidé zvětšené póry ? 

It is simple some people's oil glands produce more oil. This produced oil mixes together with dirt, dead skin etc. in the pore all this together will creat a clog and because the oil has no space to flow freely the pore enlarges.

Je to jednoduche, nejakym lidem mazove zlazy produkuji vice mastnoty. Tato vyprodukovana mastnota se smicha se spinoou v obliceji, s odumrelymi bunkami v poru a por zacpe. Tim, ze se por ucpe mastnota nema misto na to aby volne vytekala a tak se por zvetsi.

1. Cleaning/Čištění pleti

EN:To clean with the right products is essential in this case when You use the wrong products it can get worst or it will not do anything.I will be talking about is a device which I have always recommended to people with enlarged pores and I saw great results. It is called Clarisonic, a device that will clean Your skin. For enlarged pores they have a special brush for cleansing and also special cleanser - which are awesome and they do exactly what they promise they clean properly and shrink the pore size. It has proven that our hands will never clean our face properly but with this brush it has been tested it will clean it totally. This device is pricey but it is worth every penny you spend on it - TRUST ME. 

CZ:V tomto pripade je velice dulezite pouzivat ty spravne produkty, pouzivani tech nespravnych muze vest k tomu, ze se pory jeste vice zvetsi a nebo se proste nic nestane. Rada bych Vam rekla vice o produktu, ktery jsem vzdy na tento problem (a nejen na nej) doporucovala a videla jsem opravdu super vysledky.

Chemical Peel / chemicky peeling 

EN: Chemical peels are mixtures that are applied with the brush on a face where they are left for some time and then taken off. You can get this procedure done aesthetic clinics or buy the product in cosmetics stores, but it will not be in a concentration used by dermatologists.
Glycol peeling is carried out on a skin suffering with larger pores, the price of one peeling is about average $100 and the procedure is necessary to repeat in about two weeks, dermatologist will tell You how many sessions You exactlly needs. 
If the peelings at the aesthetic clinic are too expensive for You try first the peeling which You can buy in a beauty retailer. The products that You can use at home are also not the cheapest but You will pay it once and You can make few peels with it in clinic You will pay for every session so in the end You will save some money. I would recommend You a brand called Strivection from which I have tried few products and they do work.

CZ: Chemicke peelingy jsou smesy, ktere se nanasi na plet stetcem a nechaji se nejakou dobu pusobit a pote se odstrani. Provadeji na estetickych klinikach, nebo je zakoupite v obchodech s kosmetikou, ale ne v takove koncentraci jake pouzivaji dermatologove.
Na zvetsene pory se provadi tzv. Glykolovy peeling , cena jednoho peelingu je cca 1450,- Kc, nutne opakovat cca v rozmezi dvou tydnu, dermatolog Vam presne urci kolik kur by jste meli podstoupit.
Pokud by byly peelingy na esteticke klinice moc finance narocne, zkuste nejdrive ten na doma - i kdyz i ty nejsou zrovna nejlevnejsi, ale kdyz vezmete v potaz, ze peelingy se musi ze zacatku opakovat, tak prece jen tim domacim neco usetrite. Ja bych Vam doporucila znacku Strivectin, od ktere mam vyzkousene produkty a funguji.

5. PRIMERS

 

Last thing I would recommend is ti use a primer before You apply makeup it does make a huge difference, the pores will be minimized, makeup will last longer and.
V neposledni rade bych Vam rada doporucila pouzivani primeru pred kazdou aplikaci makeupu opravdu uvidite obrovsky rozdil, pory budou minimalizovane a Vas makeup vydrzi mnohem dele.

Aby jsem zakoncila svuj dnesni clanek, tak pripominam, ze je velice dulezite se starat o plet se zvetsenymi pory, pokud vyberete ty spravne produkty, uvidite velke zlepseni.

Bronzers

Bronzers are probably one of the most beloved products that girl use. I personally love to have sun kissed skin and I use bronzers on daily bases. Some of the bronzers that I have tried were not so good and some of them are just great. When I say they were not so good I mean they did not have a nice shade, they did not blend good and they did not stay that long on the skin.
There are bronzers in a form of loose powders, liquid or normal compact bronzers. Also You can but matte bronzers, or more glittery bronzers for that shiny lool. have tried all of them and for me personally is the compact bronzer the easier to apply but its really down to each one of You what do You find better.

CZ: Bronzery jsou pravdepodobne jedny z nejoblibenejsich produktu, ktere my jako zeny pouzivame. Ja osobne miluju, kdyz je moje plet hezky sneda a prozarena, proto je pouzivam kazdy den. Ne vsechny produkty, ktere jsem vyzkousela byly zrovna dobre. A kdyz rikam, ze nebyly dobre tim myslim, ze odstin nevyhovoval, nebo se spatne nanasel a v nejhorsim pripade nevydrzel na pleti ani hodinu. Na trhu muzeme najit bronzery v nekolika provedenich: sypke bronzery, tekute a pudrove, i v tuzce. Take se daji koupit v matnem provedeni nebo s primesi malych glitriku pro zářivý efekt (což je moje specialita, čím víc zářivý tím lepší :-) ) . Vyzkousela jsem vsechny, ale me nejvic vyhovuje pudrovy, nejlepe se nanasi, ale samozrejme je na kazde zene, co prave ji vyhovuje, co nemusi jedne vyhovovat muze druha milovat.

NARS Laguna bronzer one of my TOP bronzers , really nice shade, easy to apply and lasts forever.

NARS odstin Laguna je jeden z muj nejoblibenejsich, uzasny odstin, lehke nanaseni a vydrzi opravdu dlouho. 

Benefit HOOLA Bronzer also really good bronzer that is beloved by millions all over the world. It is matte bronzer.
Benefit HOOLA Bronzer je take velice dobry produkt, ktery je milovan miliony zen po celem svete. Tento bronzer je matny.

Too Faced Snow Bunny bronzer is a must have in my makeup bag - ALWAYS.
Snow Bunny od Too Faced je produkt, tery musi byt v me makeup tasticce - PORAD.

Another amazing bronzer is from Guerlain a Terracota. Amazing shade, nice smell, looks Great on skin actually It will look like you have just came back from holidays.

Další úžasný bronzer je od značky Guerlain - Terracota. Úžasné odstíny, příjemná vůně, krásné vypadá na pleti , budete vypadat jako kdyby jste se zrovna vrátila z dovolené.

Bronzer from Bare minerals has a great shade and its long lasting but the application of this loose powder might be for some people little bit messy.

Bronzer od bare minerals ma uzasnou barvu a na pokozce vydrzi, pro nekoho Muze byt ale aplikace trochu složitější, protože muže trochu popadavat při aplikaci.

So with the lines i have tried to show you where to apply the bronzer please do not forget to blend properly.

Dry Skin - Sucha pokozka

       

 

I believe that dry skin is a problem of many women and man these days it can be due to pollution, water, or simply because it is in your genes. Dry skin is very specific and it requires more care than normal skin. I do also believe that for many it can really annoying when they do not know what to do with the skin.
I am not going to do an advert on products I do not know or I havent tried on my clients and I am not sure that they work. I will simply state products that are worth of trying as they are so many on the market these days.

CZ: Myslim si, ze sucha pokozka je problemem mnoho zen i mjzu, at uz je to zpusobeno znecistenim vzduchu, vodou, kterou se miji a nebo je to proste v genech. Sucha pokozka je velice specificka a vyzaduje vetsi peci, nez napriklad normalni plet. Jsem take presvedcena, ze pro mnoho zen muze tento problem byt velice neprijemny pokud si sami nevi rady, jak s takovouto pokozkou zachazet.
Timto clankem nebudu delat reklamu produktum, ktere neznam ani jsem je sama nevyzkousela na svych klientkach a nejsem presvedcena, ze vam pomohou. Jednoduse Vas seznamim s produkty, ktere stoji za to, aby jste vyzkouseli, jelikoz se obcas muzete v nabidce ztratit tim kvantem produktu, ktere trh nabizi.


1. Cleansers / Cistici peny

 So as always it starts with cleaning the skin - I know it can be quite annoying, it is quicker just wash face with water, put moisturizer and then just go but I would not skip this if I would have dry skin and believe me after few days it will be a routine. SO cleaning should be done in the morning and also in the evening. We need to get rid of the death skin cells and start with hydration - imagine it as you are preparing the surface for a big dose of water that it needs so much .

CZ: Jako vzdy to zacina cistenim pleti - vim, ze hlavne ze zacatku to muze byt otravne a ze je jednodussi si jen oplachnout oblicej, namazat se kremem a jit, ale pokud mate suchou pokozku, tak bych krok cisteni nevynechavala a verte mi, ze za par dni praktikovani Vam to uz prije jako rutina. Pokozka by mela byt vycistena rano a vecer, potrebujeme se zbavit mrtve kuze a zacit s hydrataci - predstavte si to, jako ze nyni pripravujete pokozku na to,aby obdrzela velkou davku vody, kterou tolik potrebuje.

2. Now you have cleaned your skin it is time to use Toning lotion that will remove even more impurities (I will tell you in another post more about benefits of using toning lotion). After this step Your skin is so ready to recieve some portion of hydration in form of a serum and a cream/oil.

CZ: Ted, kdyz jste si dokonala ocistili plet je cas na pouziti tonika, ktere odstrani jeste vice necistot (vice o tonicich a jejich benefitech Vam reknu v dalsim prispevku). Po tomto kroku bude Vase plet pripravena na to, aby obdrzela poradnou porci hydratace ve forme sera a kremu/oleju.

3. Serum 
    Sera 

Serum are products that comes before creams that are made to penetrate the ingredients deeper.They don't provide a protective shield between your skin and the environment like moisturizers will do so You should not avoid using the cream afterwards.

CZ: Sera jsou produkty, ktere se pouzivaji pred kremy. Jsou vyrobeny tak, aby ingredience pronikly do pleti hloubeji. Serum neposkytuje ochranny stit mezi pleti a vnejsimi vlivy proto by se po pouziti sera nemelo zapominat na krem.

4.Creams and Oils 
   Krem/olej

Creams and oils are very important to use and if You do not have any routine at all at least You should stick into using creams/oils as skin is hungry too. By choosing the right product Your skin will thank You in a long run.

CZ: Kremy a oleje jsou velice dulezite v peci o suchou pokozku a pokud nemate zatim zadnou rutinu meli by jste si alespon zvyknout na pouziti kremu/oleje, protoze Vase plet ma take hlad a verte, ze pokud vzberete spravny produkt Vase pokozka Vam bude vdecna na hodne let dopredu.

Among cream for dry skin Clinique hast its plae for years and years Clinique Moisture surge - extended thirst relief.

I think my favourite is the Face Treatment Oil Blue Orchid from Clarins. You dont have to be scared by applying the oil it is not greasy and You will need just a little drop of it after that You can easily apply Your makeup routine.
CZ:Muj nejoblibenejsi produkt pro suchou pokozku je Face Treatment Oil Blue Orchid od Clarins. Nemusite se bat nanaseni oleje na oblicej, neni to extremne mastne a potrebujete na cely oblicej jen kapicku a pak muzete s klidem zacit s Vasi makeup rutinou.

I also have a good feedback from clients on affordable Intensive instant moisturizer from Sephora. It has a nice consistence and it soaks in quickly.
Mam take dobrou zpetnou vazbu na dostupny krem od Sephory - Intensive instant moisturizer (intenzivni instantni krem). Ma super konzistenci a rychle se vstrebava.





 4. Masks/Masky

It is good to use masks once, twice a week - masks are more concentrated so it will get all the necessary ingredients to deeper layer of Your skin.
CZ:Je dobre pouzivat masky jednou, dvakrat do tydne - masky jsou vice koncentrovane, takze lepe dostanou ingredience do hlubsich vrstev pokozky.

 

Mask from Glamglow is really good and smells soooo yummy that you want to eat it.

Maska od znacky Glamglow je suprova a uzasne voni, ze ji chcete snist.

I know that many of You will now think that how are You supposed to buy all the products at once that it will be too expensive but You can start slowly and build up Your collection of products. Once You have them all they will last You quite a long time. My advice is to start with a good cleanser and moisturizer/oil than You can get the rest.

Mnozi z Vas si asi ted rikate, kde mate vzit penize na to, aby jste vsechny tyhle produkty koupili, ze to asi bude hodne finance narocne, pravdou je, ze muzete zacit s vytvarenim Vasi "kolekce" pomalu. Jakmile budete mit vsechny, tak Vam vydrzi dlouhou dobu. Moje rada je zacit s koupi dobreho mydla na plet a kremu/oleje.
