Clogged pores can cause acne, skin infections, irritation, and embarrassment. Thankfully, cleaning your pores is very simple to do. For a deeper clean, try a facial steam treatment in the comfort of your own home.
What you will need:
- A pot (or something you can put hot water in)
- Water
- A stove (or an electric kettle)
- 2 large towels
- Facial cleanser
- A table to sit at
- Paper towel or clean facial towel
Instructions:
- Bring a small pot or kettle of water to a boil
- Tie your hair back to ensure it won't be in the way for the steam treatment
- If you used a kettle, pour the water into a pot or heat-safe bowl.
- Place one of the towels on the table and put the bowl on top of the towel
- Sit down and lean forward so that your face is above the boiled water.
- Drape the second towel over your head to make a tent, trapping the steam from the water
- Remain in that position for about 15 minutes, or until the steam cools. The steam from the water will open your pores. If it becomes too hot you may move your face further away from the bowl.
- Go to the sink and wash your face with your facial cleanser. Make sure the sink water is warm.
- Rinse the cleanser off of your face with cold water. The cold water will help to close your pores again.
- Pat skin dry with a paper towel or a clean towel
