A good way to remove blackheads from the skin is to exfoliate 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 to have the expected effect. But to start this homemade beauty treatment, one 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;
- Put about 2 to 3 drops of eucalyptus oil in the water;
- Approach the face of the basin to contact the steam, but be careful not to place too close to the basin to not burn;
- Cover the head with a towel and stand for about 5 minutes with the face in contact with the vapor for the pores of the skin 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 so is indicated for oily skin.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
Method of preparation
Mix the ingredients until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Then pass on the face with light circular movements, let it act for about 5 to 10 minutes and then remove with plenty of water.
2. Homemade scrub with cornmeal
This scrub is best suited for sensitive skin, or when there are blackheads and pimples at the same time.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cornmeal or cornflour
- 3 tablespoons liquid soap
Method of preparation
Simply mix the ingredients and rub on the skin with circular motions, insisting on areas where there are more blackheads, such as nose, around the mouth and chin.
After removing the exfoliant from the face, you should pass a tonic to close the 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 exfoliators, when they are made with plastic micro-particles pollute the environment and when they reach the rivers and seas contaminate the fish. Therefore, betting on natural exfoliants is a great way to maintain the beauty of the skin without damaging the environment.
