A good way to remove blackheads from the skin is to exfoliate with products that open the pores and remove impurities from the skin.
Here are 3 great recipes that should be used on the skin, and rubbed in order to have the expected effect. But to start this homemade beauty treatment, you must first wash the skin of the body or face and then promote the opening of the pores, as follows:
- Boil 500 ml of water; Place the boiled water in a bowl or bowl; Place about 2 to 3 drops of eucalyptus oil in the water; Bring the face of the bowl closer to contact with the steam, but be careful not to place it too close from the basin so as not to burn yourself; cover your head with a towel and stay about 5 minutes with your face in contact with the steam for the skin pores to open.
After opening the pores, you must apply one of the following recipes:
1. Homemade scrub with sugar and honey
This recipe is stronger and is therefore suitable for oily skin.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon of sugar 1 tablespoon of honey
Method of preparation
Mix the ingredients until a homogeneous mixture. Then rub it in the face with light circular movements, leave it on for about 5 to 10 minutes and then remove with plenty of water.
2. Homemade scrub with cornmeal
This scrub is more suitable for sensitive skin, or when there are blackheads and pimples at the same time.
Ingredients
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, salt and pepper, and season with salt and pepper.
Method of preparation
Just mix the ingredients and rub the skin with circular movements, insisting on the areas where there are more blackheads, such as nose, around the mouth and on the chin.
After removing the scrub from your face, you should apply a tonic to close your pores or an astringent lotion and a moisturizing cream with sunscreen.
This type of home treatment can be done once a week or every 15 days.
Although there are several industrialized exfoliants, when they are made with plastic microparticles they pollute the environment and when they reach rivers and seas they contaminate fish. Therefore, betting on natural exfoliants is an excellent way to maintain the beauty of the skin, without harming the environment.
