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!

The Explorer Ruckcase is now made with lightweight and tough Ripstop fabric. Excellent for travelling. The bag can be used to carry with handle, on the shoulder with the integrated straps and also features a detachable day sack.

Wirecutter

The Explorer offers many of the same features as the pricier bags we tested—a removable daypack, stowable straps, and a main compartment that opens like a suitcase. So this pack is a great deal if you don’t mind sacrificing some comfort, durability, and warranty support.

 The things that kept it from being a 5 star pack? No rain cover and no place to put a Nalgene-type water bottle or hydration bladder, so I'm going to have to buy a rain cover and a water bottle holder that hangs from the waistbelt webbing. The mesh pockets on the 15L bag are too small for even a woman's fist. They say it has an MP3 port on the 15L bag, but no luck finding it. 15L is too small for school books if you are trying to visualize the size of 15L

Lots of Features, really nice magically transformative pack.

I love my REI Flash 22 (and an REI Flash 18 before that). Very comfortable and surprisingly capable - have flown with it as my onebag on a budget airline with personal item only. The Flash 22 doesn't fold, but would lie flat in your luggage.

This probably breaks the one bag rules but I’m looking for a smaller foldable/packable back pack that I can use for hikes and day trips instead of my larger pack. I want it to be comfortable enough to carry my 2.5 L osprey water bladder and also fit a light jacket and snacks. Any recommendations would be awesome!

Packable hiking/day pack

After much deliberation and no real limitation on budget I ended up with the REI Flash 55 for my JMT thru hike. Couldn’t have asked for a better bag. I was impressed with the weight and and functionality compared to the rest of the market.

<div class="md"><p>I&#39;ve been lurking here for a couple months after doing my first 50-miler this past summer and yearning for more future trips. </p>

<p>Being a first time backpacker, before my trip in July I headed to my local REI to gear up.  I worked with a few sales people and was sold an Osprey Atmos 65L backpack, Oboz hiking boots, a mummy sleeping bag, etc.</p>

<p>The only backpacks I was shown was a Gregory Baltoro, Osprey Aether, and the Atmos.  In retrospect wish I was at least shown the Osprey Exos and told about weight.</p>

<p>I&#39;m just a bit perplexed why REI only offers one quilt and many many mummy bags, pushes heavy packs, and also pushes hiking boots when trail runners seems to be the popular option?   Not to mention uber expensive rain shells over the UL budget choice of Frogg Toggs. </p>

<p>So is REI just slow to adapt?  Or are the UL philosophies that far from mainstream?</p>

<p>It is REI so in theory I could return everything but that seems...immoral.  I returned the mummy bag since I&#39;m a side sleeper and felt way way too constricted.  (I have a HG Econ Burrow on order).  I also returned the Flash Air 2 tent since in retrospect I&#39;m annoyed they pushed the $50 overpriced footprint on me, the zippers were super annoying, and the tent had a lot of condensation.  While not the lowest weight, I recently got a SMD Skyscape Scout which seems very similar for half the price (with a cheap footprint and robust zippers).</p>

<p>I like the Oboz boots so will keep those.  Might as well keep the Atmos too since it is comfy and my upcoming trip will entail carrying my kids&#39; gear where that 65L capacity might get used.  And I kept all the other stuff like clothing, socks, cooking, etc.</p>
</div>

How come REI isn't embracing ultralight or quilts?

You don’t have to be ultralight but you should seriously take into consideration the weight of the items and more importantly the size of the items in making your decision on what to buy. You won’t need that whole cook set, it’s going to take up a lot of space. Rei flash 55 backpack is a great pack that’s affordable and carries weights up to 30 pounds really well.

Howdy! As the title states, I am hoping to use REI's sale this year to get a decent budget friendly backpacking set up going. I have never once gone on a backpacking trip and the longest hike I have gone on is 7 or so miles. I live in the PNW, I am 5'11 and around 230 but hoping to shave off another ten pounds in the next month or two. I already have a decent pair of hiking boots and socks along with a nalgene. I certainly will need to get hiking clothes as well. I am hoping for a few simple 1-2 night trips over this summer to get into the groove of things. I think I have a semi decent list going, I am okay with spending $1k to $1.2k as I know this will see a lot of use. I picked the North Face One bag as I want to eventually be getting in some fall and winter trips and I imagine it will pay for itself in time.

As for the tent, how are Marmot tents? I see all of the REI tents have sold out since the sale had started. I don't really know what I am missing but I imagine its quite a bit. Is a Jetboil a half bad idea? 

Here is the list that I started with:

New to backpacking, working on my first gear set

All of the straps and attachment points on the pack are girth hitched to the daisy chain instead of being sewn into the pack seams. This lets you detach them, move them to a different location, or change their angles, as needed.REI even includes a mesh sack with the Flash 55 so you can store the straps you’ve removed between uses, and not lose them. Directions for attaching the straps are printed on the outside

 I’m really quite impressed with the hip carry on the Flash 55, which is comfortable and does not slip down.The hip belt closes with pull-forward straps for mechanical advantage, with a single central buckle. The hip belt pockets are positioned a little farther back on the hip belt than I’d like, so I can’t see the zippers when I look down my sides, but whether they are for you will depend on your physical dimensions. I think the hip belt sizing for both the men’s medium and large sizes is optimistic in the upper half of the sizing range, but your mileage will vary

 The hip belt pockets are positioned a little farther back on the hip belt than I’d like, so I can’t see the zippers when I look down my sides, but whether they are for you will depend on your physical dimensions. I think the hip belt sizing for both the men’s medium and large sizes is optimistic in the upper half of the sizing range, but your mileage will vary. However, if the front of the hip belt doesn’t cover your hip bones, the pack isn’t going to fit you (See How Should a Backpack Hip Belt Fit?).If you remove the top lid, consider keeping two of the top lid straps to anchor the sides of the roll top
