The pores in your skin can get clogged with oil, dry or dead skin cells, and everyday dirt and debris. At times, the pores can clog when the skin is inflamed due to excess white blood cells. It is very important to keep the pores free of clogs to prevent blackheads and acne. The best way to get rid of clogged pores is to follow a good daily skin care regimen. Regular exfoliation of your skin will remove dead skin cells, oil, dirt and other impurities that lead to clogged pores. Many home remedies can help you get rid of clogged pores so you can enjoy smoother, younger-looking skin. 1. Steam Steaming the face is an inexpensive and highly effective remedy for clogged pores. Steaming opens the clogged pores and allows all kinds of impurities trapped inside to be washed away. Fill a pot with water, cover it with a lid and heat the water on the stove. When the water is hot enough to produce steam, remove the pot from the heat. Place a towel over your head and lean over the steaming water. Allow the steam to soak into your face for 10 to 15 minutes. Then pat dry your face and use a toner (to balance the skin?s pH) and mild moisturizer (to protect your skin from drying out). Steam your face twice a week to keep your pores clean and rejuvenate your skin. Note: Avoid splashing hot water that can burn your skin. 2. Sugar Sugar works as a natural exfoliating agent to help break up scar tissue and unclog skin pores. Crush two tablespoons of sugar into powder form.

It can reduce excess oil on the skin and tighten the skin pores. Plus, honey will help keep the skin hydrated. Apply raw honey on the affected skin area.
