If you have oily skin then you will have naturally large pores on your skin. Large pores are an invitation for excess oils and dirt to accumulate in them and lead to several other problems. It is in your best interest to reduce the size of your pores and keep them clean in order to avoid damage to your skin.

To reduce the size of the pores you must first start by cleaning them with warm water and soap. This helps to clean the skin and reduce the oils and dirt from the surface of the skin. For the next step you need to use a toner, one that helps to remove the dirt from deep within your pores. The best natural ingredient that acts as a toner is lemon juice. Spray lemon juice on your skin or soak a cotton ball in the juice and rub it all over your skin for best results. The juice helps to get rid of the dead skin. After using a toner you may choose to rub ice cubes all over your face. This helps to reduce the size of your pores drastically.

Once a week you must use a clay mask on your face. The clay absorbs the oils from deep within your skin and clears it out completely. The cleaner your skin is the smaller your pores will appear.

This helps to reduce the size of the pores and tighten your skin at the same time. It also helps to prevent premature aging.

Drink plenty of water and provide your skin with adequate supply of vitamin C., this helps to keep your skin healthy and glowing. You must also moisturize your skin daily and keep it supple .this helps to prevent your skin seeking moisture from natural sources thereby opening its pores in search of moisture.
