poreless
Lacking skin openings
Poreless describes skin that appears smooth and uniform, without visible pores.
The term belongs almost exclusively to beauty marketing and skincare discourse, promoting an idealized complexion: This foundation gives you that poreless look.
Since all skin has pores, poreless describes an appearance rather than a reality.
