is there any way to make my pores look a lot smaller, and get rid of acne on my forehead, without having to buy any product?im a teenager, so im short on money, any way to do this without having to spend anything would be great, like something natural, i've seen peopleput things up about natural...at home remedies, so i know they are out there!

the only thing i can think of made of housrhold items is a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, dabbed on with a Q-tip. it works..... sort of

i'd test it on a tiny area first

I have had a problem with large pores I recommend washing your face *every* night and using a moisturizer w/o mineral oil(look at your product labels). It's not easy to keep up w/ every night washings, but I know for a fact that it helps!

If you don't want to buy products, search for essential oils and it might guide you to a site that you could make your own formulas, and you might want to learn more about essential oils.

An egg-white mask is a quick fix. Leave it on for about l0 min. and wash off. Oatmeal and water masks help too, but egg white will really pull those pores in.
