Hi mam Iam 16years old I have small pores in my face plese suggest me a precaution pleseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee? ???
Hi Bharat . if you have open pores that are very visible , you need to do proper cleansing and toning of face. this will help in hiding the pores and make your skin look even and smooth. open pores are very prone to pimples as dirt accumulates and enters the pores easily . make sure you use a good qulity toner every morning after bath and after washing face.
