Blackheads can be very unappealing bringing your self-esteem down as you constantly worry about how you look and the condition of your face however, here are tips on how to get rid of blackheads.
1. Exfoliant
By using an exfoliant, you will remove the cells in your skin and “expose” the blackhead. Exfoliant creams contain Alpha Hydroxyl Fruit Acids which clear away your dead skin which then exposes the blackhead. These must be use once every 3-4 days as an excessive use can be damaging to living cells on your face. From this you must place a warm compress on your face for about 10 – 15 minutes which will soften the blackhead. Once you have done so, gently apply pressure on both sides of the blackhead by pushing down onto your face. This is to push the blackhead upwards and out of your face!
2. Lime Juice Lotion
Lime juice contains great substances to heal damaged cells whilst getting rid of blackheads too! By combining equal parts of lime juice, glycerine and almond oil, you will make a killer lotion to clear up your face!
3. Honey
Dab a little bit of honey on the affected area and then wash it off after 10-15 minutes. This will help cure your blackheads.
4. Steam and moisturize
Place a hot towel over your face to ‘steam’ it for around 10 minutes. An alternative to this would be to fill your sink with extremely hot water and put your face above your sink for the same 10 minutes. With this ‘steaming’ method, blackheads come to the surface and all you will have to do is wash your face with warm water and a natural face wash. Moisturize your face after to close back the pores!
