Answer 1

after u steam wait a minute or two then rinse with cold water. another suggestion is to use a cleanser with warm water to open up the pores and clean them then rinse with warm again and towel dry...then rinse again with cold water to close the pores..that way you will have cleaned them and closed them to prevent further oils getting into your pores...gl

first get yourself a good exfoliating scrub to clean your face make sure rinse the face throughly, second get a good astringent to clean any resdue left from the scrub and absorb some of the oils don't break the blackheads they can leave scars of your face get something Bore' to help remove the blackheads, then get your self a facial mask that reduces the pores on your face avon has a good one and there are some good ones over the counter too. once you do steps one to four clean off the mask and then clean off the mask and take a cold cloth and soak in cool or cold water to help further reduce your pores and if you do this every other day for sixty days and then two to three times a week after the sixty days and change your diet reduce your intake of fried foods, things high in sugar, caffiene, and acid example, soda. try to add more fruit, vegetables, whole grains and water to your diet and this should help and if not you can alway go to a dermatologist when all else fails. good luck

First just a little info.... Masks bring pimples to the surface of your face. If you use it 3 times a week, you would notice a real change in your skin. When you use a mask it takes about a day or two to bring the yucky stuff deep down in your pores to the surface. So if I were you I would cut down on the masks to about every other week or so. And yes you can use steamers to open the pores or just take a wash cloth and run some hot water on it and place it over your face for about a minute. Then cleanse your face with whatever facial soap you use, then rinse with cool water, use a towel to dry your face. Then use an astringent such as Oxy or Stridex whichever you use to help treat your skin. Or if your skin gets dry after washing your face (instead of using the astringent as this could dry out your face as well) use an acne medicated lotion after wards. Good luck :)

Answer 5

Straight away because your pores will start to get clogged up as soon as you take your face out of the steamer. The best thing to do is to go to the sink, wash your face in warm water (to get any muck out) then immediately put cold water on it.

Answer 6

you can just soak a washcloth in cold water and lay it over your face for about 60 seconds.. thats all it takes to close your pores
