Pores are tiny openings in the skin that allow for excretion of oil. When dead skin cells or dirt blocks pores, they expand. There are varieties of over-the-counter treatments for enlarged pores, but one of the simplest methods is an exfoliating mixture made at home. This sugar scrub formula provides components that will moisturize, remove dirt and debris as well as tighten pores to give your face a fresh feeling and look.
