Exercising is a good way to make your skin sweat it out, which is very essential for it to remain healthy. You should also take a steam once in a while to open your pores and let the gunk out, which can also help get rid of clogged pores and blackheads. Add some essential oil to it and it becomes relaxing as well!
-
Use ice for your face
So Katrina Kaif and a lot of other Bollywood actress swear by using ice for their face- whether it's dunking the face in a bowl of ice water or rubbing ice on their face- the cool ice helps in waking you up, reducing the pore size instantly and can also control your sebum production!
-
Use a humidifier and diffuser
