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!

Freefly Packable Duffle

 The carry system on the new pack here is virtually identical. the same thin mesh straps. They did add a sternum strap here adjustable sternum strap, which is a nice touch. and then if you can see, there is a slightly larger curve in the updated version than on the old one

 You can see they're mesh. They don't have any padding, but they're quite wide so they help distribute the weight well. And because it is this stiff mesh fabric, they have great air ventilation. I don't think these straps would be appropriate for a larger travel backpack, but for a small 16 liter day pack like this, they work great

 They also made some major upgrades to the hardware in the new version. This is something I always thought was lacking in the older Matador packs. This is a very well made, sturdy and expensive day pack, and they used to use these tiny off-brand kind of cheap zippers and I'm happy to say they fixed that in the update. These are much higher quality Number Five Ykk zipper with a water resistant sealed lining

 This updated fabric is slightly stronger. It's a 50 denier rip strap with a waterproof polyurethane coating and then you can see whatever they did with the update. The fabric is less shiny, which I think looks way better looking at the waterproofness. This fabric is waterproof, all the seams are sealed, and the zipper is very highly water resistant

Matador Freefly 16L Advanced Series   Packable Water Resistant Daypack

 Moving On to the inside of the pack, you've pretty much got a giant bucket.. The Zippers open up in a horseshoe style down to the top of the water bottle compartment. On The interior: You can really see where the Cordura was welded together to create some additional weather resistance on the pack

 It's actually about the same size zipper as the entire exterior of this clamshell opening of this pack.. Just Some food for thought for you. Also One important note on the materials here, is that Matador states that they use waterproof materials on their website

 We have YKK buckles, which is from a Japanese manufacturer that makes some of the greatest zippers in the world. We also have Duraflex hardware for some of the strap adjustment going on. And then some non-absorbing shoulder straps that are made of non-absorbant mesh material. Lastly We have some teeny, tiny SVS zippers, going on in this thing and they're very small

Matador Freefly16 Review | Packable Backpack For Travel (Updated “Advanced Series” Design)

- In this video we are
going to be taking a look

and we love helping people
optimize their travel experience

with guides and reviews
just like this one.

consider subscribing. Let's
jump right into the Freefly16.

Pretty much the next
iteration of the Daylite16,

even though Matador says
they are mutually exclusive.

From an aesthetic
prospective the Freefly16

We think this is a more
mature color option.

The Daylite16 was offered
in like an indigo

which actually looked a
little bit more like a blue,

However, aesthetics are always
in the eyes of the beholder.

So we decided to poll
our Instagram audience

If you want to be involved in future polls,

we are looking at a
subtle gray on black logo

on the exterior of the pack,
an M logo at the bottom front,

a white on black logo on
the compression pouch,

and then a small M at
that base of the straps.

This pack also features
30D siliconized ripstop

Cordura nylon, that's sealed at the edges

We have YKK buckles, which is
from a Japanese manufacturer

that makes some of the
greatest zippers in the world.

for some of the strap adjustment going on.

And then some non-absorbing
shoulder straps

that are made of
non-absorbant mesh material.

Lastly we have some
teeny, tiny SVS zippers,

going on in this thing
and they're very small.

especially after we've
heard a couple reports

of zippers breaking
after only minimal use.

To compare the interior of our
Fjallraven passport wallet -

where you like hide extra coins and cards

about the same size zipper
as the entire exterior

Also one important note
on the materials here,

is that Matador states that
they use waterproof materials

on their website. And
although this is true -

or anything like that,
water will get inside.

However, if you are looking
for a waterproof type pack,

be sure to check out their Freerain24 2.0.

with a couple improvements
as well on the 1.0 version.

than the Daylite16 when fully compressed.

Also the mechanism by which
the compression happens

So on the Freefly16, we have
this kind of compression roll,

similar to what you're going
to see on weather-resistant

Overall the drawstring
method seems to work

a little bit better for
an item of this size.

Like you're not putting
a bunch of stuff in,

it doesn't need to be
completely waterproof.

we got going on here.
It's a little bit harder

to compress it fully
down, which leave this

being a little bit
larger than the Daylite16

A couple great things going
on with the compression sack
