1-Month Pore Care Routine — Inspired by Japan’s VoCE Magazine

Pores can appear enlarged from oil, dryness, or loss of elasticity. Japanese beauty experts emphasize that pore care isn’t about a single “miracle” product, but about a consistent 360° approach. This one-month plan, adapted from VoCE Japan, combines skincare science with at-home rituals to refine skin texture and restore confidence.

Week 1: MUST HAVE BASICS

In  Japanese skincare if you don't have basics in your skincare routine-you can't reach a beautiful skin. 

Focus: UV protection · Gentle cleansing · Vitamin C

• UV Defense: UV rays thicken pore walls and cause dark shadows, making pores more visible. A multi-spectrum sunscreen prevents both damage and future sagging.

• Gentle Cleansing: Switch to a creamy or foaming cleanser that respects the skin barrier. Avoid harsh scrubbing—rubbing weakens pore elasticity.

• Vitamin C Boost: Vitamin C reduces oxidation, brightens dark pores, and supports collagen production.

💡 Extra tip: Lather foam into a soft cushion and roll across the skin with slightly bent fingers for minimal friction.

Muneeraskin Recommends:

• Extrasome UV Cream – Future Defining Sun Protection — advanced UVA/UVB + infrared shield with stem cell support.

• Active R Age Capsule — inner care with antioxidants to enhance Vitamin C benefits.

• Hydropeptide CLEANSING GEL -This foaming cleanser effectively removes makeup, dirt and excess oil without causing irritation to even the most sensitive skin.

Week 2: Control Oil & Calm Skin

Focus: Oily skin care · Clay packs · Cotton compress

• Clay Packs: Clay masks absorb excess sebum and pull impurities out of pores. Use 1–2× weekly on the T-zone. Don’t let clay dry completely—rinse while it’s still slightly damp to avoid over-drying.

• Cotton Compress: Soak a cotton pad with toner, split it into thin sheets, and place on areas with visible pores. This cools, tightens, and hydrates deeply.

• Sebum Regulation: Actives like azelaic acid or niacinamide help balance sebum to prevent recurring congestion.

💡 Extra tip: Follow clay packs with a hydrating mask to restore moisture balance.

Muneeraskin Recommends:

• STM Refine Veil Mask EX — an at-home professional treatment with exosomes + hydrogen therapy to calm and hydrate after clay use.

• Bijou de Mer Rejuve Face Renewal Pack — gentle exfoliation and renewal for smooth, refined pores.

• Niacinamide & Peach Ceramide Water & Lactobacillus Blend Facial Mask - Infused with a unique BC-Niacinamide Complex, Hydrating | Brightening | Barrier Repair

Week 3: Tailor by Skin Type

Focus: Combination · Dry · Sensitive

• Combination Skin: Treat zones separately. Use enzyme cleansers or clay on oily T-zones; use soothing essences or creams on cheeks.

• Dry Skin: Dehydration thickens keratin plugs and slows turnover, making pores look larger. Use tapping massage to stimulate circulation and creams with ceramides + hyaluronic acid to reinforce the barrier.

• Sensitive Skin: Avoid over-exfoliation. Stick to mild, fragrance-free products. Focus on calming hydration.

💡 Extra tip: When treating different zones, don’t apply the same product all over—multi-masking and selective care bring balance.

Muneeraskin Recommends:

• Bijou de Mer Beauté Invariante The Cream — deeply hydrating, perfect for dry or sensitive cheeks.

• The Morpho Device — improves absorption and boosts microcirculation in targeted areas, great for combination routines.

• DIREIA Stem Amperity The Cream - provide intense hydration, rejuvenation, and skin renewal.

Week 4: Target Aging Pores

Focus: Firmness · Elasticity · Muscle Training

• Sagging Pores: After 35, collagen and elastin decline, causing “tear-drop pores.” Anti-aging skincare with peptides, retinol, or stem cells is essential.

• Facial Exercises: Try the Japanese “E–U training.” Pronounce “E” and “U” in exaggerated movements 6–10 times to strengthen facial muscles and lift skin.

• Pro Treatment at Home: Combine topical care with devices that use EMS or LED to stimulate collagen production.

💡 Extra tip: Keep consistency—once sagging pores form, only long-term collagen support + lifting routines will make a difference.

Muneeraskin Recommends:

• Zeru V2 Cosmetology Device — EMS + LED for firming and pore refinement.

• Extrasome Premium Direia × Esthe Pro Labo — stem cell & exosome supplement to fight aging from the inside.

Japanese VoCE reminds us: “Pore care is not about erasing—it’s about balance.”
By building habits step by step—protection, purification, hydration, and lifting—you can achieve refined skin in just one month.
