Mint to Tighten Enlarged Pores
Mint can act alone to tighten enlarged pores, but it will be even more effective when combined with other herbs to refine the skin’s texture. To enjoy these benefits, prepare an aromatic facial sauna:
- In a pot of boiling water, infuse mint leaves along with, if possible, thyme, parsley, and lemon balm leaves in equal quantities.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl.
- Lean over the bowl and cover your head with a towel. It should neither burn nor make it difficult to breathe.
- Let the steam gently caress your face for 5 minutes
