It is also important to follow a certain skincare regime so as to keep this problem at bay. If larger pores and unsightly blemishes are bothering you, here are some good ways to shrink them and reduce their appearance:<\/p>\n
WASH:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Pores enlarge when they become clogged with dirt, oil, or bacteria, causing them to become inflamed. Washing your face regularly but not too often- once in the morning, once at night will help keep your pores looking smaller and feeling better.<\/p>\n ICE CUBES:<\/strong><\/p>\n Place the ice cubes gently along your pores for 15 to 30 seconds. This will have a tightening effect on your skin.<\/p>\n OATMEAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n Mix 1 tablespoon of oatmeal with 2 tablespoon of yogurt and place it in the refrigerator for a few hours. Then apply this paste to your skin for 30 minutes and wash off with lukewarm water. You can also make a paste of ground oatmeal, lemon juice, gram flower and rose water. Apply the paste on your face and rinse off when dry.<\/p>\n BAKING SODA:<\/strong><\/p>\n Makeup artists swear by baking soda, as it may help minimize the appearance of pores while fighting acne at the same time. If you have very sensitive skin, however, use baking soda with caution, as it may irritate your skin. Make a paste of baking soda with water and apply on face. Wash after 5 minutes with gentle circular movements.<\/p>\n TOMATO:<\/strong><\/p>\n Tomatoes can be used in a number of ways to reduce oil content, sizes of pores and their appearance. Add the juice of a tomato to sandalwood or calamine powder and apply on the face. Alternately, dip cotton in tomato juice and apply. Leave it on for about 15 minutes before washing it off.<\/p>\n CITRUS:<\/strong><\/p>\n Lemon and pineapple juice contain natural enzymes that tighten and firm the face while also purifying and brightening the skin if you have sensitive skin use moisturizer before hand just to make sure the citrus doesn’t break you out. Lemon particularly has the ability to cleanse and shrink the appearance of pores. Rub a slice of pineapple or lemon on your skin and wash it off after 15 mins.<\/p>\n YOGURT:<\/strong><\/p>\n Plain yogurt contains lactic acid and probiotics, which when applied to the skin, help keep the bad bacteria that cause acne in check, thereby reducing the appearance of pore size. Apply a thin layer of plain yogurt over face and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Longer than 10 minutes can irritate the skin.<\/p>\n Follow these easy ways to reduce your pores as well as prevent them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" No matter how well you take care of your face, large pores can always pop up, which make the appearance of blemishes even bigger.
