To open your pores and remove blackheads, you can try steaming your face.
Here’s how you can do it at home:
1.
Boil some water in a pot and pour it into a large bowl.
2.
Place a towel over your head and lean over the bowl to trap the steam.
3.
Stay in this position for about 5-10 minutes to allow the steam to open up your pores.
4.
After steaming, you can gently extract the blackheads using a blackhead extractor tool or your fingers (make sure your hands are clean).
5.
Finish off by rinsing your face with cold water to close the pores.
Some additional home remedies for blackheads include using a clay mask, exfoliating with baking soda, or applying a honey and cinnamon mask.
Remember to patch test any new ingredients on a small area of your skin before applying them to your entire face.
