Blackheads occur as a result of increased activity of the sebaceous glands or improper care. They most often appear in the T zone (forehead, nose, chin), but they can also be noticed on the back, arms and chest. Contrary to appearances, this problem does not only concern teenagers, but people of all ages.
Open and closed comedones. Care is the basis
There are two types of comedones: closed (small white spots) and open (black dots). Over time, blackheads turn into inflammation and acne, which may result in the appearance of scars. If you have noticed black dots on your face, you better start taking action right away. The most important thing is to cleanse the skin regularly to get rid of residual sebaceous plugs. For this purpose, you should wash your face every morning and evening and exfoliate twice a week. Give up squeezing the blackheads with your nails, because you can only make the situation worse and transfer them to the rest.
How to get rid of blackheads? You need three things
Avoid alcohol-based cosmetics that dry out your skin. Replace them with homemade masks made of natural ingredients. A mixture of a tablespoon of honey, a tablespoon of lemon juice and a teaspoon of activated carbon powder will work very well for blackheads. You can easily buy such powder in any pharmacy. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until you obtain a smooth paste. Apply the mixture to a dry and cleansed face. You can do it with your fingers or with a brush. Leave for 20 minutes. After this time, remove the dried mask and wash your face with lukewarm water. Before you put the mask on your face, do an allergy test on your hands.
