    It really softens the skin and no there are no side effects. As it dries it tightens the skin and once it is washed off it leaves your skin feeling really nice. Once a week is average for applying. Also many people use oatmeal as a cleanser to scrub the pores. Many household products work as well if not better than the expensive products in the stores.

Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs. Even resorting to drastic chemical/surgical procedures at the dermatologist’s isn’t quite capable of giving satisfactory results.  Nevertheless, you can try and minimize their appearance at least temporarily with clever makeup and a few natural skin care masks such as these: * Cleanse your face with a mild ...
