The pores on your face are often clogged by dry skin cells, oils, or the dirt and debris that you come across every day. Washing your face daily is the best way to maintain your skin, but you need to do a lot more to unclog the pores. To prevent acne and blackheads, your pores require deep cleansing and regular care. Clearing your pores will allow oxygen to flow through and prevent bacteria. There are many ways you can clean clogged pores. Here are the seven main tips.

1. Do a Proper Cleansing

Cleansing helps to get rid of bacteria, dirt and excess oil from your skin. It should be done at least twice daily. Cleanse your face in the morning after you wake up and, in the evening, before you go to sleep. Use gel or cream cleansers to clean out the pores in your face if you suffer from oily skin. And if your skin is prone to acne, you can apply acne serum to treat it as well after cleansing.

2. Steam

Steaming offers multiple benefits to your skin including opening your pores. Steam is warm moist air. To make some at home, you only have to boil water, pour it in a bowl, put your face slightly above it and cover your head and bowl with a towel so that you don’t let steam to skip easily. Skincare specialists prefer steaming because it opens the pores and makes them easy to treat.

3. Wear Charcoal Mask

Charcoal is a skincare superhero. It helps to clear out congested complexions and toxins. Activated charcoal absorbs impurities 200 times its weight. It removes all the pollution, dirt, and toxins from your pores. Rinse your face, apply the mask, wait for five to ten minutes and rinse the mask off with water. There is a variety of active charcoal mask that you can get in the store near you.

4. Use Sugar

Most solutions to clogged pores are at home. Sugar, for instance, is a perfect exfoliating agent.  The process is simple! Add two tablespoons of sugar in lukewarm water and some lemon juice. Smear the paste on your skin while you massage in a circular motion, wait for about five minutes or more and wash it off. After that, apply your favorite lotion or cream.

5. Lemons

When life gives you lemons, what should you do? Don’t make lemonade yet. Use them to unclog your pores. That’s right!  It’s common knowledge that lemons have citric acid and it clears out any dirt or oil in your pores. Slice a lemon into two and rub one half over the affected area. After five minutes, rinse it off with lukewarm water. You can also create fresh lemon juice, rub it over the clogged skin and wash it off after five minutes. Apply a moisturizer right away.

6. Use Approved Counter Products

There are a couple of products that have been proven to unclog pores with no side effects. You can purchase them from a beauty store near you or Amazon. They include nose strips, oil mattifiers, sunscreen, and oil-blotting sheets. There are also products that contain salicylic acid and work well too. However, you need to be aware that even though products will work miracles, you won’t be able to see them immediately. Your skin type determines how long it will take to notice the change.

7. Use Raw Papaya

Papaya is not just a sweet fruit, but it’s also a remedy to clogged pores. Raw papaya clears the bacteria and dirt in your pores and leaves you with soft and smooth skin. Peel the papaya, apply the extracts on the affected part of your face and relax for five minutes or a few more. Wash it and use some moisturizer on the skin.

Conclusion

Clogged pores are cleaned frequently, but you can always prevent your pores from often clogging by removing your makeup before resting, drinking a little more water and cutting down on greasy foods. Aren’t you happy that you can find most solutions in your home?
