Shiny shine and pores

My biggest skin concerns these days are definitely oiliness and enlarged pores.

My pores weren't exactly small to begin with, but now that summer has arrived, perhaps due to increased sebum production, they look even wider and my makeup seems to break down quickly. Even if I spend a lot of time applying makeup in the morning, oil starts to surface after just a few hours, and the pores around my nose and cheeks appear more prominent, making me self-conscious every time I look in the mirror.

I know that getting a procedure would yield faster results, but the cost is a burden and it requires consistent care, so I want to start by trying methods I can do at home. I don't expect dramatic changes, but I hope that through consistent care, my pores will look a little less prominent and my oil production will be controlled to a reasonable level.

So, I'm curious: have any of you seen results using methods other than cosmetic procedures? For instance, please recommend any cosmetics, serums, toners, masks, or cleansing products that help with pore management, or any lifestyle habits or skincare routines that were effective for controlling sebum. I've heard a lot about how good ingredients like niacinamide, retinol, and BHA are, but I'm actually more curious to hear reviews from people who have used them.

If you have any personal experiences with products or skincare tips, such as "I felt my pores were becoming a bit more refined after using this product consistently," "My oiliness definitely decreased," or "My makeup didn't smudge as much," please be sure to share them. I would love to try following your advice one by one and use it consistently myself. I look forward to your recommendations and tips!
