Tired of those pesky little blackheads on your nose that refuse to leave? March into your kitchen to show them out!
Blackheads form when a hair follicle in the skin becomes clogged or plugged. Dead skin, excess oil and sebum that collects in the follicle opening leads to a bump. The exposed skin over the bump gets oxidized and appears black in colour. Blackheads are a form of hormonal acne and mostly develop on nose, chin area, foreheads and cheeks. Painful to remove and quite annoying to look at, blackheads can be prevented with many over-the-counter topical creams that include salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. For gentle, skin-caring options you can also treat them at home. If you’re one of the troubled beauties who has oily skin and have visible blackheads, we have a whole list of natural remedies that help clear and prevent blackheads. These are super easy, effective and most of all, extremely affordable. All you need to do is whip up a face scrub or an exfoliating mask with just a few ingredients from your kitchen. Now without further ado, let’s jump to these DIY home remedies that can help tackle blackheads with ease.
