While some may think face models‘ perfect skin is simply down to good airbrushing, having represented models for the past 20 odd years, the team at Models Direct know all to well that models have to work hard to look flawless in person.

So, for all our new faces that are in need of a few skin tips, our beauty bloggers at the agency are here to reveal how to refine your pores for that ‘model-beautiful’ skin we all envy.

Firstly, we recommend investing in a good skincare range. We love Clinique’s new Pore Refining Solutions range, which includes a multi-functional moisturiser, an Instant Perfector and a serum. Together, they take a 3-prong approach to provide all day shine control while minimising the appearance of pores immediately and over time revealing fresher, younger looking skin.

To apply, firstly put on a thin layer of Pore Refining Solutions Correcting Serum twice a day to cleansed skin to help reduce the appearance of pores over time.

Then apply new Pore Refining Solutions Stay-Matte Hydrator to keep skin moisturised while controlling oil production.

Finally, to instantly disguise pores during the day, apply Pore Refining Solutions Instant Perfector for a perfectly flawless finish, available in 3 skin-perfecting tints.

But perfect skin doesn’t stop there; next we need to make-up. Although some think a foundation is an easy fix, finding the right formula can be a challenge. Attempting to cover pores with heavy makeup can result in an artificial look, and may even lead to clogged pores which can cause breakouts or stretch over time, causing the skin to appear older.

To conceal large pores, foundation needs a lightweight texture that provides seamless coverage, and for that we love Clinique Pore Refining Solutions Instant Perfecting Makeup

This liquid makeup delivers a near-poreless look. It incorporates the same high-powered pore resurfacing complex found in the serum, meaning that it not only instantly disguises the look of pores through optics, but also works to minimise their appearance overtime.

This lightweight, breathable formula glides on smoothly and blends effortlessly to help create visibly flawless skin.
