2. Honey: Honey has antibacterial properties and can help remove blackheads. Applying a honey mask regularly can be beneficial.
3. Baking Soda: A paste made from baking soda and water can act as a gentle exfoliant to unclog pores and remove blackheads.
4. Clay Masks: Bentonite or kaolin clay masks can help draw out impurities, including blackheads, from the skin.
5. Tea Tree Oil: Due to its antibacterial properties, tea tree oil can be effective in treating and preventing blackheads when diluted and applied to the skin.
6. Apple Cider Vinegar: Diluted apple cider vinegar can help balance the skin’s pH and reduce the occurrence of blackheads.
