DIY Pore Cleansing Strip

Those pore-cleaning strips from the drug store are a rip-off at about a $1 each. Save yourself the cost and make your own at home.


To make your own pore-cleansing strip, you'll need: 

• 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin 
• 1.5 tablespoons milk

Preparation

1. Mix the milk and gelatin together in a microwave-safe bowl and zap it in the microwave for 10 seconds. 
2. Apply the mixture over your nose, chin and/or forehead using a clean cosmetic brush. (Clean your brush right away.)
3. Let the mixture dry for 10 to 15 minutes. A stiff film will form in the areas you applied the mixture. 
4. Peel the film off your face.
