Reduced pore size?

[Alix B.]

Just curious,

 

Has anyone else noticed that their pores are smaller? My skin is looking really good, but I am wondering if I was imagining the pore thing!

I also have much better looking skin on Whole 30.  Not sure about pore size, but I certainly don't breakout the way I do when not on Whole 30.  The first time i did it, my sister commented on how clear my skin was. 

This is my second time and I'm noticing the smooth skin myself.  What a nice bonus!

Yes!  I've noticed smaller pores as well!  Mostly around my nose.  I'm so happy to see someone else mention this.  lol

PaleoInPittsburgh, yes! Around my nose! Awesome.

Interesting. The book says skin improvement. Go for it!

Ive been on paleo for 3 weeks and I have cheated a bit but monday I decided to do whole30 for first time no cheating and my skin so much better looking since paleo. Pores definitely smaller

I'm only on day 6 of my first Whole 30 but I noticed on day 4 that my blackheads on my nose were more noticeable.  I didn't have time to do my usual scrub but noticed that night when I washed that they were gone and my pores on my nose are noticeably smaller and fewer blackheads.  Whoo hoo!  They've taken up residence for 20+ years, time to move on.

My skin is definitely much smoother although my pores are still large... no breakouts during my period last week and I ALWAYS get large cyst-like pimples so I'm happy to accept my large pores for now!!

yes! pore smaller, skin clearer and much less puffy - I have suffered with bad skin for nearly a decade so this was a surprising but very welcome benefit of my whole30 (I'm on day 24), it makes me think I never want to reintroduce sugar into my diet..
