Blackheads can be really annoying, especially if they’re consistent. They make your skin rough, and if you leave them untreated for a while, they can even cause scars on your skin.
But they are not untreatable, they’re very normal and can be treated easily. All you need to know is just a few ways of treating them and things will get better in no time. And you don’t even have to pay for some expensive treatments at a cosmetician’s. You can do everything at home – with great effects. Give it a try.
1. Exfoliate Regularly
Regular exfoliation is going to help your skin get rid of dead cells and unclog the pores. Just make sure you’re not over-exfoliating.
2. Prep The Skin By Exposing It To Steam
Your skin needs prep too. Give it some time to soak up on the moisture by giving it a steam treatment before doing anything else.
3. Avoid Squeezing The Blackhead With Your Nails
Squeezing, as tempting as it may be, is only going to cause a greater damage than good.
4. Try Using Blackhead Removal Strips
There are many blackheads-removing strips you can purchase online or in a supermarket. You can use any of them to avoid scarring your chin.
5. Use Sea Salt For Blackhead Removal
Sea salt has a coarse texture that will help with the exfoliation of your skin and unclog your pores. Mix it up with some coconut oil and a few drops of lemon juice and massage.
6. Consume Foods Rich In Vitamin C
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that prevents blemishes, acne, and blackheads. It also fights many of the harmful free radicals.
If you eat foods rich in vitamin C you’ll boost the collagen levels in your skin and make it more resistant to blackheads.
