Loosen blocked pores?

Question

I started using a cleanser and toner to combat blackheads, but it has tightened my pores way to much on my cheek/jaw on one side of my face. Now there are really deep pimples there and it is really bumpy, it is almost like a rash apart from the fact they are pimples. How do I loosen these pores and make my face smooth again?

Answer 1

Go to either a sauna or a steam room for several sessions as either will help open the pores and the sweat will push some of the blackheads out. Another option is to put your face over a bowl of steaming hot water and let the steam rise up and expand the pores -- cover you head with a towel while you are doing this.

Let me tell you something not many people know,
When you try to wash the oil off your wash using soap or
any store brought product what happends is it sucks up alot of the natural oils
out of your skin, and what happends when that occurs? your
skin goes into over time trying to reblimish the lost oil
and doubles the amount, your pores open up more to get more of the oil out and air in so let me help you

Ah ok well my mother had the same problem as you,
and let me tell you what she did to make it stop,
this is a home treatment of course, the only thing
you may need to buy is a lemon if you dont already have some in the fridge,
what you want to do is get some lemon and squeez that
sucker into a tiny bit of honey, and mix that all together, put that
into the area where you want treated and wait 5-10 mins and than wash off,
the lemon works great as a toner and as we all know toners are
great for tighthing the skin and even better for your pores to look
smaller, the honey helps as an evener, it will even out the uneven
skin tone and also sooths the skin,This teachique not only destorys the pimples you already
have but it also helps prevent them from coming up again,Drinking alot of water
every day also helps alot :) Well I hope this helps <3 good luck

You must use a strong exfoliate scrub with warm water for about 5 minutes. You may have to use a rough facial sponge if they are really deep and oxidized (hardened).

Scrub until your skin is pinky-red. Then gently squeeze out the blackhead(s).

Then saturate a cotton ball with witch hazel and wipe the area immediately.

Answer 4

Use rubbing alcohol or noxzema to cleanse ur face then rinse with warm water. Then continue using the cleanser after the pimples are gone every other day.

Answer 5

Try an exfoliating cleanser twice a week also.

Answer 6
