One of the home remedies to rid the face of blackheads is the mask, this is a treatment where the face or blackhead area is covered with ingredients that will either draw out the blackhead or extract it from the pores.
These masks are a treatment that is in most cases left on the face for a short amount of time to a quarter of an hour, in which time they loosen the blackhead without squeezing or irritating the skin. The homemade mask is made with ingredients like oatmeal made into a paste with water that is placed on the face and allowed to dry, or a combination of ingredients such as honey, egg and almonds that have been powdered in a food processor. There are masks that are made from ingredients that are even softer on the skin, such as a mixture of cucumber, yogurt, strawberries and honey.
What all of the homemade masks have in common is that they are tested over many years by people that have suffered from blackheads and acne, who looked for ways to clear their skin. |
