Your pores do not open and close with temperature fluctuations. You know this, right?

You are misinformed. 17 minutes at the very least.

Citation please.

And that's why there are so many deaths occurring each year from using hot tubs in the middle of winter.

It's quite tragic actually.

Myth: Your pores open and close.
Fact: This might just be the biggest misconception out there, egged on by talk of cold-water rinses that magically make pores slam shut, and steam facials that open them up again. Unfortunately, your pores don’t open and close like a doggie door. Here’s what does happen: Steam can help loosen the sebum that builds up inside pores. Once that sebum gets cleared out, pores appear smaller. (Yes, we said appear smaller.)

Question: how does this relate to the advice of using hydration no longer than 3 minutes after your bath for best results?

I hate to insert a serious answer in this hilarious thread, but: the moisterizer seals in the moisture on your skin, so you want to put it on before your skin is totally dry. For the same reason, you should pat dry, not rub with the towel (leaves more moisture behind).

Im taking the day off to care for him. Dh went to work and took infant to daycare so there is no one else at the house.

The problem is that I need to run to the store to buy some pedialyte for 2 yo and also some breakfast for myself since im pumping every 3 hours and need to keep up my milk supply.

I know that you are not supposed to shower and then go right outside because your pores are still open. If it was just me I would go outside right away but im concerned about my 2yo, especialy since its cooler than normal out today.

How long should we wait before leaving the house?

I know it's a typo but I like the visual of praying the rosemary.
