Reduce large pores on face with good skin hygiene and home remedy

Enlarged pores on the face are quite a common concern amongst, not only the female population of the world, but also the male population. Open pores on the face have a tendency to greatly distort the appearance of a person. Most often, though, it is the lack of good skin hygiene that causes the pores to remain open. The pores help in guiding the oil created by the sebaceous glands to the upper layers of the skin. However, when skin is not cared for, the dead skin cells on the upper layers of the skin can gather in the open pores causing them to appear open and larger. The enlarged skin pores will eventually lead to greasy, rough as well as bumpy facial skin. There are a number of home remedies to reduce skin pores prominence on face. Try a few of the remedies listed below:

  • Heat some water to the point it lets out a sufficient amount of stem. Make sure the water is not boiling or too hot as this could end up causing more damage to your skin than healing it. Place your head over the water and drape a towel over your head to prevent a significant amount of stem from escaping. This part of the process will help to clean skin pores and the heat will create sweat, which in turn will flush the pores on your face. Once this is done, the pores and clean. Take a facecloth and pour some lemon juice over it. Put this facecloth over your face for about a minute. Since lime is a natural bleaching agent, it will help lighten up the overall tone of your skin as well as tighten the skin. Once your pores are sufficiently clean and tight, apply an ice cube over your pores, keeping it in each location for about 15 to 30 seconds.
  • Vegetables and fruits with astringent qualities will help smoothen and even out the skin texture and reduce the open pores. Create a mixture using a few drops of lime juice and some tomato juice and apply this on the open pores and let it rest for about 20 minutes before washing it off with cold water.
  • The juices of pineapple, peaches and papaya are also very good in dealing with pores. If you start to use powdered orange peel instead of soap, you will start to see quite remarkable results.
