Home remedies to minimise those ugly pores on the face

Enlarged pores on the face are a common skin problem. They are basically an opening on the surface of the skin. While a normal one does not really cause much trouble, an enlarged one can lead to forming of sebaceous gland that releases oil to lubricate and protect the skin. After a while, the oil turns into blockages and causes tiny pores on the skin to stretch. And, quite obviously these pores look ugly. Try these common home remedies to deal with this problem.

The humble cucumber is the best way to bid goodbye to enlarged pores because the high silica content in the vegetable not only imparts a youthful look to the skin but also helps in tightening the large pores. Use lemon for better results as the astringent in lemon will reduce the appearance of the ugly pores. Mix two tablespoons of cucumber juice with one tablespoon of lemon juice to make a pack. Now, apply the concoction to your face with a cotton ball. Let the juice dry out and wash your face with cold water thereafter.
