PORE SHRINKING TECHNIQUES
Oily skin requires more cleansing than creaming. Oily-skinned persons won’t have to worry about running or wrinkles, nor will they be prone to premature ageing.
Oily skin has the disadvantage of a perpetually shiny nose, skin that hates make-up, and a tendency to have large pores.
Significant pored skin does not look lovely at close quarters. Large pores provide a base for blackheads and pimples.
Here are the oldest methods of shrinking large pores :
• Wash face with warm water and pure soap. Rinse off. Splash cold water and dry well with a coarse towel. Rub the fresh juice of a lemon over the entire face and allow it to dry. Wash off. Lemon juice acts as an astringent that clears and constrict pores.
• Clean your face with warm water. Apply two tbsp. Of milk of magnesia. Rinse off after 20 minutes with tepid water and finish with a dash of cold water.
• Soak five almonds for an hour. Grind to a paste using 1 tsp. Of lemon juice. Leave for 15-20 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water.
• On a washed, clean face, apply off the white egg and leave for 25 minutes. Wash your face using lukewarm water and follow with a cold water rinse.
• Saturate cotton wool with buttermilk, and pat over the face. Allow to dry before rinsing off.
• Combining equal quantities of tomato juice and buttermilk is also an excellent pore tightener.
• Extract the juice of lettuce leaves, add 2-3 drops of lemon juice and use over the face. Wash off with cold water.
• Apricots combined with the pulp of tomato is an excellent pore shrinker.
• To the well-beaten white of an egg, add and mix well with just a grain of camphor. Apply evenly for 20 minutes before rinsing off.
