I have huge pores and I find them so embarrassing when talking to someone bc they're really noticeable, how can I reduce the size of them?

A toner could help them appear smaller. I use Thayer's Alcohol Free Rose Petal Witch hazel toner (I have large pores too) and many silicone based primers have pore filling properties :)

You can't. But you can try to reduce the appearance by using special primers that "fill" in pores and rinsing your face with cold water.

Your pore size can't really change you can reduce the look of enlarged pores by keeping them clean using salicylic acid products to keep pore walls clear and Alpha hydroxy acid or enzymes to help keep dead skin from clogging pores and stretching them out further you can also use a good primer to hide it, Skin Cosmetics orchid gel , or Too Faced primed n poreless are good

Your pores are probably enlarged because they're filled with dirt and things like that. You need to make an effort to make your face clean. I would wash your face and then exfoliate it. (The Neutrogena Deep Clean line should be good for you). Also use a pore clearing face mask such as Queen Helene's Mint Julepe face mask. Also, everyday after you wash your face massage your face with an ice cube. This will tone and close up pores. Also make sure to use a moisturizer.

I agree with Traci I have them myself and I just make sure I keep them clean with Alpha Hydroxy Acid and enzyme peels (not in one day though...used in rotation). And once a month spot treat the affected areas with an intensive deep clay mask to really get in there and clear 'em out. And to disguise them...sometimes I'll use a primer but I find that if I stay on top of my skincare then it diminshes their appearance even further and I don't have to depend on primers as often.
