Home remedies for pores

Open pores is an issue, as it results in conglomeration of dirt. Open pores are difficult to close permanently. Regular application of a toner reduces skin pore size.


Washing the face with cold water is also equally effective. Apply foundation after a toner, as it fails to reveal the pores. Rubbing ice before applying makeup, helps in tightening the pores, thereby decreasing its size.


Foundation also acts as a protective coating preventing the entry of foreign substances and dirt. Wash your face gently before retiring to bed. Touch it up with a toner. Cucumber juice with a dash of lime is an excellent toner. Exfoliating scrubs used regularly helps in clearing up clogged pores. Check out for moisturizers and cleansers that are free of oil. Avoid buying unbranded cosmetics, especially for face care. Look out for the date of manufacture, while purchasing cosmetics. Multani mitti is an excellent face mask. Gram flour or chickpea flour is also a good face mask with water. In case of no available home remedy, the best alternative is to splash the face with cold tap water.
