Easy Home Remedies to Get Rid of Blackheads

 There are several and best ways to remove blackheads from the face. You can DIY at home, or, for more severe or persistent cases of acne, you can see a dermatologist.

 

Here are a few methods that you help you with removing the blackheads.

 

1. Steam it Out

 

Steaming is an effective way of removing blackheads. It helps to relax and open the pores in your skin, which can help to clean them.

 

Note: It is very important to wash your face with room temperature water before you start to get any dirt, grime, make-up, and oils off of your skin.

 

Directions

 

1. Fill a sink or bowl with hot water.
2. Drap a towel over your face and the sink creating a tent to trap the steam and heat inside, softening your skin and opening your pores. Do this in about 5 – 10min
3. After, rinse your face with cold water and moisturize using a natural moisturizer.

 

2. Cleansing Sugar Scrub

 

Sugar is a good scrub in removing the blackheads from the face as it prevents the clogging of pores, acne, and whiteheads too.

• Sugar – 1 cup

5. Keep it for some time and wash it with lukewarm water.

 

3. Charcoal mask

 

Like clay masks, charcoal masks work deep in the skin to draw out oil, dead skin cells, and other impurities. The ingredient charcoal is thought to take these benefits up another notch. Used once weekly.

4. Now, after the second layer dries, place the tissue again and apply the third layer of egg white.
5. Leave it to dry for some time and rinse it with warm water.
