How do you all manage enlarged pores that become more noticeable every time you look in the mirror?

Lately, whenever I put on makeup in the morning, I find myself lingering in front of the mirror for quite a while because my skin texture has changed so much. I used to be able to apply foundation smoothly and flawlessly, but now my makeup keeps getting stuck and flaky, which is frustrating. My pores are especially noticeable around my nose and cheeks. I'm at a loss as to what to do. I try to manage my skin with face masks and tried some supposedly great cosmetics, but once my skin loses its elasticity, it seems to never return, which is frustrating. When I suddenly looked in the mirror in a brightly lit room and noticed the enlarged pores on my face, I felt a sense of bewilderment. I try to accept it as a sign of aging, but I feel a constant urge to look in the mirror every time. People around me suggest expensive treatments, but I hope there's a way to improve my skin with consistent home care. I'm really curious to know what you do to manage this sudden, enlarged pore situation. If you have any valuable advice or skin care tips for those of you who, like me, are having trouble sleeping due to skin concerns, could you please share them with us?
