Clogged Pores?

I used to have bad acne, but not I have bad clogged pores almost all over my face. It doesn't show much but just abit. I'm using a cream that was prescribed by my dermatologist and it's working. I want to try maybe a cleanser or mask to help. Any ideas of which can help clear up my skin? I dont want to use and exfoliator since I have oily/combo sensitive skin and I don't want to irritate ir more than it already is.Clogged Pores?
Large Pores Treatment - Home remedies





SUGAR SCRUB





Ingredients: 1 Tablesoon each of sugar, olive oil and honey.


Wet face, apply scrub by rubbing very gently in a circular motion. Remove with water with hands only.





EGG WHITE MASK





Mix 2 egg whites with a few drops of lemon juice. Apply on face and leave on for 5-7 minutes, then rinse with hands.


Note: As egg whites dry, they linghten the skin and pull debris out of pores. Lemon is a natural fruit acid which also helps to exfoliate.





Or you may try the following to treat large pores


1) Mix almond meal with enough water to make a paste. Apply to pores for 20 minutes. Rinse with warm water, then apply withch hazel or a solution of apple cider vinegar and water.





2) Mix table salt and buttermilk into a paste, apply on enlarged pores and massage well. Rinse with warm water.





3) Add lemon juice and a little milk to oatmeal. Apply the paste and remove after 20 minutes with water. Do not use if there are eruptions.





Tips on reducing large pores


Stop using harsh toners or astringents on the affected areas. Using these products may have a very temporary 'tightening' effect on pores, but it's extremely short-lived. In fact, harsh astringents actually encourage oil glands to over-produce oil, leading to an increase in the size of pores.





Avoid putting moisturiser on the area as the skin produces quite enough moisture and oil on its own and doesn't need more.





Makeup tips to hide the appearance of large pores


Heavy foundations will draw attention to your large pores. So, stay with a sheer, light and oil free foundation.


Apply foundation, concealer, powder and blusher in a downward motion, otherwise you'll accentuate pores by pushing colour up and into them.





Steam your face weekly





=)Clogged Pores?
SWEAT! Exercising till you sweat is fundamental for a healthy skin.
open up you pores by boiling a pot of hot water and BEING VERY CAREFUL, put your face over it and with a towel to cover you head. do this for a bit, coming up for fresh air sometimes. as soon as you do, that wash you face with COLD water.





hope this helps!!





you can add heabs or somthing to the water for a good smell.
first get a washcloth and have the water as hot as your face can stand. wash your face with it. dry.


then squeeze the black heads out!!! your face will be a little bit red in the area where you squeezed them out. but will go away in a few minutes. then wash you face again.. do that before you go to bed... you dont want to put the makeup on after doing that. it will just clog them more.. good luck
