For texture and pores, Redditors frequently recommend La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 for its ability to improve skin smoothness and reduce the appearance of pores temporarily. Hydrating moisturizers are valued for calming skin texture but effects are often short-lived.

- Consistently improves skin smoothness and pore appearance temporarily
- Calms skin texture and redness effectively
- Highly hydrating and soothing for sensitive or compromised skin
Watch out for

- Does not reduce oil production or provide a permanent fix
- Some find the heavy texture unsuitable for daytime use
