How can i get rid of open pores, blackheads and dark rings under my eyes?
I’m a 25year old male and my face is getting me pretty down at the moment. I’ve no confidence and I think this is holding me back. I used to smoke 20 cigs a day and drink alcohol every weekend but I’ve stopped all that and joined the local gym. I shower twice daily. Would using the steam room at the gym help or is there any other ways. I’ve tried a lot of products from the pharmacy but nothing works because I’ve sensitive skin and they seem to bring me out in rashes. I’ve also thought about laser treatment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I get between 6 and 8 hours sleep every night

November 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pmHi Glen
You don’t say how often you go to the gym.
Are you getting regular exercise?
Are you drinking about 2 litres of water a day?
Are you eating plenty of fresh fruits and veg? (at least 5 portions a day?)
A honey scrub may help may help with the open pores and blackheads. Just apply about 1 tbs of honey to your face and massage in gently using a little warm water, completely avoiding the under eye area. The stickiness of the honey will remove the top layer of dead skin cells. You can add a tsp of salt and sugar to the honey, but then you must massage in really gently and only for about 5 seconds, before rinsing off with warm water.Then splash your face with cold water.
Hope this helps.
November 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pmMoist ur face in some way…(use hot water or steam) and then use those small strips they sell and remove the blackheads by pulling them off the nose.
Once the blackheads are out of the way the extra oil will flow out from the pores leaving skin clear.
And 4 removing dark circles take mashed papaya, soak the solution in cotton and rub it under ur eye 4 5 min.
November 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pmwell Glen i have ALOT of information for you, it helped me a lot like i say to loads of other people to help them here you go…
Massage the area with pure almond oil.
Apply cold raw grated potato mixed with the juice of half lemon around the eye area. Leave on for about 20 minutes and wash off with cold milk.
Slices of cool cucumber are also very good as they not only soothe tired eyes but also have a natural bleaching effect on that area.
Two teaspoons almonds ground to a fine paste and mixed with 10 drops of lemon juice can be applied to the skin around the eyes.
Cover your eyes with cotton soaked in luke warm milk for 15 minutes everyday to remove the dark circles around your eyes.
Cut two slices of apple and keep them on your closed eyelids for about ten minutes.
Dip cotton pads into freshly extracted mint juice, flatten them and place them on closed eyelids for 10 to 15 minutes.
Apply 1/2 a teaspoon of almond oil with 1/4 teaspoon of lemon juice.
Use a sunscreen especially made for the face with a sun protection factor (SPF) of preferably 20, to keep the sun’s rays from darkening the skin under your eyes.
Close your eyes and cover them with a cold washcloth for about five minutes, several times throughout the day. That will help constrict your blood vessels, minimizing darkness, and it may help minimize tissue swelling and eliminate some of the darkness.
Mix one teaspoon flour, one teaspoon milk, a pinch of sugar, 1/4 spoon honey and squeeze half lemon juice. Apply it on face and remove after 10 to 15 minutes.
Be sure you have 8 hours of sleep.
As for your bleakhead problem use some toner on your face everytime you have showered as the pores are open, this will also minimise pores too.
I hope i have helped you and good luck babes
November 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pmThese are safe as well as quite easy on your pocket.
Step1
Resist the urge to attack when these plugged sebaceous glands pop up. In other words, don’t pop your pimples, this can cause infections and even scarring.
Step2
Keep in mind that a combination of hormonal activity, a buildup of bacteria and the shedding of dead skin cells causes pimples. Do what you can to prevent a breakout by establishing a skin-care routine appropriate for your skin type.
Step3
Have patience. It could take up to one month for a blemish to disappear completely. The less you poke at it, the better.
Step4
Buy an antibacterial, oil-free concealer that can blend the redness of the pimple into your own skin color. Green shades tend to offset redness the best. (This might not be an option for those who don’t wear makeup.)
Step5
Try a facial mud mask. This may shrink a pimple.
Step6
Realize that despite the happy teens in the commercials, "zit zapping" solutions, medications you apply directly to pimples, don’t do much more than dry out the top layer of skin covering the pimples. These medications don’t provide a long-term cure.
Step7
If you are going to break the rules by "extracting the blemish," aesthetician-speak for popping your pimple, wash your hands, then lightly squeeze the top of the pimple with a tissue or cotton swab. Clean the area thoroughly when you’re done. If nothing happens, leave the pimple alone until it’s ready to pop.
Step8
Apply a benzol peroxide acne medication to the pimple and avoid applying medication to the surrounding area.
Ingredients: Garlic
Instructions: Crush a clove of garlic and rub juice on effected area. Fresh garlic will kill the bacteria and your pimples will disappear with regular applications. Also try eating a clove or two of raw garlic.
Ingredients: Calamine Lotion
Instructions: Cleanse your face with astringent before bed, apply a thick layer of Calamine lotion to pimple area and rinse off in the morning.
Ingredients: Egg whites
Instructions: Place egg whites all over your face like a mask. Let it dry, and rinse with warm water. Repeat daily until pimples are gone. This remedy will keep your face pimple free.
Ingredients: Toothpaste
Instructions: Apply toothpaste to affected areas (not gel), before bed. Wash off in the morning. This home remedy for pimples really works, with quick results!
Ingredients: Olive Oil, Salt
Instructions: Mix three tablespoons of salt with four tablespoons of olive oil in a bowl or container. put the mixture in a washcloth or on your fingers and scrub in face. works great as an exfoliant! and the olive oil helps keep skin soft making it an excellent home remedy for pimples/acne.
Ingredients: Honey, Cinnamon
Instructions: Mix one teaspoon of cinnamon into 3 tablespoons of honey. Use as a facial scrub, works great as an exfoliant, and you can leave on overnight or wash it off after half an hour, either works fine.Do not use bar soap on your face! Try using African black soap to keep your face free of pimples.
