@Nidhi: I have not heard of any permanent remedies for open pores. But there are some common ones that you may want to check out.
1. Using a toner seems to tighten pores temporarily. You may want to apply a toner regularly to hide the open pores.
2. Apply foundation after washing your face with cold water. Use foundation creams from a reputed manufacturer. Check if that has sunscreen in that too. Having sunscreen in the foundation will also help. Foundation conceal the pores. Wash the foundation with cold water to remove it. Apply toner once your face is cleaned up of the foundation.
3. Applying ice on your open pores tightens your facial skin and hence may help close smaller pores.
As home remedies for oily skin, you can try these:
1. Mix half cup of mashed apple, half cup of oatmeal, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and a little bit of egg white. Apply to your face and keep for 20-30. Wash off with cold water and gently dab you skin. Repeat this twice each day for about a week and see if you find any difference in the oiliness of your skin.
2. Mix lemon juice and water and apply to your face till it dries off. Wash and dry you face before you apply this mixture. After you apply the mixture, let you face dry and then wash you face with lukewarm water. Gently dab your face dry – do not rub your face.
I hope these tips help you solve some of your problems with open pores and oily skin.
