Final Steps On How To Clean Clogged Pores


 Hey Guys,
yesterday i promised to post the final steps for unclogging your pores!

See the preview below..

Exfoliate Your Face
  1. Use a dry facial brush: Dry brushing is an ancient exfoliation technique that has gained popularity in recent years. Buy a facial brush with soft bristles made from natural fibbers. Make sure the brush you use is made specifically to be used on the face, since body brushes are too harsh on fragile facial skin. Use the following technique to exfoliate your face:

    • Start with a clean face. Use makeup remover, rinse your face, and pat it dry with a towel. Make sure your face and the brush are both completely dry
      before you brush. This method won't work if your face is wet with water or soap.
    • Gently brush your face by moving the brush in small circles. Concentrate on the areas where your skin is the driest.

    • Be careful with the skin above and below your eyes, since the skin in these areas is thin and fragile.
    • When you're finished, rinse your face with cool water and apply moisturiser.
Use a facial scrub. Gels, creams, cleansers and scrubs containing tiny particles that exfoliate your face are sold at drugstores and beauty stores. You can also make your own with sugar, honey and green tea using the following recipe.
  • Brew a mug of green tea and place a few teaspoons in a bowl.
  • When the tea has cooled, mix in a tablespoon of sugar and a tablespoon of honey.
     
  • Apply the scrub to a clean face. Rub it in gently to exfoliate, concentrating on the driest areas.
  • Rinse your skin with cool water and apply moisturiser.

Use a Facial Mask

  1. Try a clay mask. Clay masks work by pulling out the substances that clog pores as they dry. They are available at health and beauty stores, but you can also make your own.

    • Mix 1 tablespoon of bentonite clay (available at health food stores), 1 tablespoon of water, and 1 tablespoon of oatmeal.
    • Apply the mixture to a clean face, making sure to cover all the areas where your pores are clogged.
       
    • Let the mask sit on your face for 10 minutes. You'll feel it start to tighten as it dries, and that means the clay is working to draw out the debris from your pores.
       
    • Wash your face with water, pat it dry with a soft towel, and apply moisturiser.
       
  2. Use an alpha hydroxy or beta hydroxy acid mask: These are known as chemical exfoliates. They are available for purchase from beauty stores, and they exfoliate your skin without you having to scrub it.

    • Starting with a clean face, apply the product and allow it to sit for fifteen minutes, or the time specified on the package. Don't leave it on for too long or it could irritate your skin.
       
    • Rinse your face with water, pat it dry with a soft towel, and apply moisturiser.

Use a Pore-Unclogging Treatment

  1. Consider blackhead removal: Blackheads form when clogged pores mix with dirt or dead skin cells and from hard, black knobs that become more visible over time. Making a habit of removing blackheads can cause skin irritation and even scarring, so be very careful with this method, and don't use it more than absolutely necessary.

    • Use a sterile wipe to sanitize the part of your face with the blackhead.
       
    • Use your fingers to pinch the area around the blackhead into a small mound.
       
    • Wrap a tissue around your other hand and use it to gently squeeze the blackhead until it leaves the skin. Wipe it away and wash the area.
       
    • Alternatively, use a blackhead removal tool (available at beauty stores) to remove the blackhead.
    • Always sanitise your face, hands and any tools you use so that you don't infect your face with bacteria, which could lead to acne or skin irritation.
       
  2. Try micro dermabrasion: This treatment is offered at salons, and entails applying a chemical to the skin that removes the top layer to deeply exfoliate and get rid of substances deep in your pores. This treatment should be used sparingly, since it can damage your skin if it's done too often.
tips
Wash your face immediately after exercising or spending time in a dusty outdoor area.
warning
Don't exfoliate or use skin treatments too often, as they can irritate your face.
