I would like to ask if there's any way I can minimise the pores on my face? besides, a foundation or bb cream will be more harmful to your skin?

If you do hit showers you must add Coldwater to your face so that your pores can diminish.. Or witch hazelnut toner at Walgreens helps.

The cold water thing is a temporary thing. It'll work for two seconds and using extreme temperatures can be very harmful to your skin.

You can:
Exfoliate to keep your pores clean.
Use a pore filler- Primers meant for your pores, creams and products meant to minimize the look of pores, etc.
Toner- It's temporary however, just like cold water. But without the harsh result of an extreme temperature.
Buff your foundation- By buffing your foundation in a circular motion both counter clockwise and clockwise you fill in your pores. This works flawlessly especially for powder foundation.

A foundation and BB cream is not necessarily more harmful. Studies have shown that certain creams alone are more harmful than your normal foundation and BB cream, and other makeup products.

You cannot change your pore size, you can look up tips and tricks similar to the ones listed above.
The only other way to change it is through some sort of surgery.

I heard that pores can be 'trained' by visiting hot steam baths and saunas, they enlarge with the hot steam and tighten with the cold shower afterwards. if you do this regularly they can tighten over time. I've been to a sauna on holidays several times a day and had the most beautiful skin in my lifetime, unfortunately there's no such bath where I live. but maybe you could do the thing with hot water in a bowl, maybe with some chamomile, and place a towel over your head letting your skin absorb the steam.

Green tea bags help a toonnnn!! I just wet them and squeeze out some of the water. I put it on my nose and leave it there rubbing it around just a bit.
