    These methods are tried and test ways to help shrink pores

    - Exfoliation as this is often helpful in minimizing the pores. Use any good facial scrub and gently massage your skin with it to unclog the skin pores.

    - Try using a natural Clays Mask this is a natural solution for enlarged facial pores. Clay helps absorb excess oils and helps the pores shrink. Clean your face with a gentle face wash and then apply a clay mask. Leave it for 5 minutes or until the mask dries completely. Rinse off with water.

    - Using a facial toner when you apply a natural toner to your face your pores will shrink\close, therefore reducing their visibility. You should avoid any toners with alcohol., I would recommend try using a rose hydrosol.

    Hope this helps!

    Have you considered trying Oxy? its a face wash in a black bottle you can find at any walmart, it has a stronger dose of acne treatment than any other over shelf face cleanser but it should help with your oil problem, dont wash repeatedly just get into a good face washing routine, and clean & clear oil sheets can take care of your oilyness when your out and on the go, theyre so small and portable you can keep them in a wallet or pants pocket. Also another thing you wanna make sure you put moisturizer on IMMEDIATELY after you wash your face reguardless if your face gets oily , and if you havent been this may be your problem, because your skin sends signals to your pores after washing your face to make more oil cause theres none on your face producing an extra amount than what it originally would have. And about your large pores I would consider after moisturizing your face to put on some face primer. Face primer is originally used to make your pores smaller for when applying makeup but i would consider doing it if big pores are a big issue and make up isnt gonna be applied it dosent change your face complexion or anything its kinda like another moisturizer but not.
