What can you recommend for minimizing pores?

I know you can’t get rid of pores but I’m wondering is there anyway to make them smaller? I use La Roche Posay products. They keep my acne mostly at bay but I feel like my pores are just so large. Part of it is genetic, but just wondering if there’s anything else I can do at home to help. Thanks!

Consumer Reports

CR’s take: If you have bare floors and deal with pet hair, the Kenmore 81614 is the vacuum for you because it aces both of those tests. It doesn’t do quite as well on carpet. Emissions are clean, although you’ll find that this vacuum is a bit noisy as you work. Despite weighing in at a significant 23 pounds, its Good rating for ease of use is one of the highest among canister vacuums, and it boasts an unusually long cord—it measures 28 feet.

amazon.com

 You can only push it forward and not backward because of the pivot mechanism. Did not like this at all but you adapt by picking it up and only pushing forward. next up the carpeted steps. First step I tried pulling the floor brush back it fell apart

 Great vacuum but the attachments are poor or the door holding the attachments is cheap and they actually expect it to break. Kenmore needs to invest a few more dollars on the attachments of yesteryear and not this cheap plastic. Vacuum gets a 5, attachments a 2.

 Trouble is the little tooth inside that must keep it together is 75% gone. It must be .0005 cents worth of plastic. Not even 45 minutes out of the box one of the main floor attachments is useless

Great vacuum...... but they could have spent a few more dollars on the quality of the attachments!

 It vacuumed the carpet well with good suction although, it was hard to tell if it vacuumed the floor well without lights. Very disappointed in this vacuum so I returned it. I ordered a replacement motorized head for my old shark navigator so I’m very happy now. The new vacuums are made with cheap flimsy parts

Very disappointed

 I regret that and regret not getting another Miele, which I probably will now. I absolutely do not like this vacuum. It's cheaply made, heavy, bulky, loud and frustrating to use. I do not recommend

I bought this a year ago and after dreading using this thing every time I drag it out I decided to write a review. The bags do not fit properly as there is dust inside the vacuum and around the attachments. I have tried several bags some I have destroyed trying to make them fit. It is heavy and bulky

Not satisfied at all

Took 3 tries before we got one that worked!!!

Warning

 This one is bigger, heavier and more tricky to get parts together (and no it's not due to my age!). So I'm a manual reader (you guessed it, I'm not a man LOL) so the first thing I did after reading it was check everything out -open every nook and cranny. Don't check the rear filter! I spent over an hour trying to get it back in. Once I removed the filter to check it out and tried to replace it I could not get the cover to stay on

 If you just want clean and have the extra bucks, you'll like this one. And it's such a girlie color..

 Each time I turned on the vacuum, it blew it across the room with rocket force (luckily this didn't break the cover). I could replace the cover easily without installing the filter - I eventually had to put the whole canister on the hose end and use my entire body weight to get that cover back in place. One thing's for sure it has a TIGHT seal - the next time I think that needs replacing, I'll be inviting a man over - hopefully he'll be stronger. My second displeasure is that having the floor attachment fit into the rug attachment makes it heavier & less manageable - it is wider than previous models I've had and doesn't fit under some furniture due to it's increased height

 For instance, the dirt sensor comes on if it senses there is still something bouncing around in front of it - it's come on a couple times, but not in the high traffic areas where you would expect it- so am I convinced it's reliable? The slide button on the handle that changes it from floor to carpet moves too easily down to the carpet setting and the suction adjustment just below that is easily changed without meaning to if you grab that area to move the whole wand. Where the hose goes into the canister is not as smooth a fit and likewise the handle of that hose into the pole attached to the floor attachments. The floor light on the wand only comes one when using the carpet selection and isn't as bright or cover as much area as my previous model that had the light on a separate rug attachment. The suction is as good as they make and I do care about how well it cleans, so it will remain with me

A quality vacuum but pricey

 It falls off too often when upright on stairs, when "scooching" by furniture, etc. Again, duct tape - no more problems. 4) The bare floor tool has too much concave space & therefore wastes some off it's suction power. I found this problem was solved by putting heavy stick, one-sided foam tape inside the tool

 Be careful with it or it will break. 3) The exhaust filter cover also has an absurdly silly slide lock that keeps it in place. It falls off too often when upright on stairs, when "scooching" by furniture, etc. Again, duct tape - no more problems

 4) The bare floor tool has too much concave space & therefore wastes some off it's suction power. I found this problem was solved by putting heavy stick, one-sided foam tape inside the tool. Less wasted space makes for more suction.  Despite these things, if my vacuum was abducted by aliens overnight I would order another one because I know it works well & is dependable

OK, it works well, has been very dependable for a year & a half & I think it's maneuverability is just fine. The suction is good - it's not Miele good, but it's also not a $1000 vacuum. Here's what I see as the quirks & foibles of the unit.  1) Where the hose meets the canister connection & where it meets the handle are points of weakness

Good vacuum with a few quirks

 WIMPY!!! Too small and cheaply made to be much use. The floor brush is about half the size of my old one. My old floor brush had a nice thick row of brush across the entire width. This has five little bars of brushes

At this time, I've only had the vacuum for a week and used it a couple of times. I am impressed at the suction when using the power head for carpet. Lightweight and easy to maneuver. The telescoping wand is awesome! What I am totally unimpressed with are the attachments

Wimpy tools

 Recently did a deep clean, and it was fantastic at getting the dirt and fur from under the sofa cushions, baseboards, window sills, etc…easy to drag around, cord retraction was great, and the attachments and extending nozzle were easy to use. Also liked that I could control suction power, especially when working around cords and curtains. However, I did detract one star because it’s performance on my rug was almost comical. The “carpet head” is just a piece of plastic with no brushes or wheels

 Bought an upright from a well-known brand and while the suction was great, it was a one-trick-pony that couldn’t do upholstery or baseboards, or ceiling corners and wouldn’t fit under furniture. That’s when I began looking at a canister vacuum, and this one has not disappointed me in its versatility.

I have an older home and two small dogs and the dust and fur is insane. Had a rechargeable stick vacuum from years ago, and it wasn’t powerful enough to get the job done.
