5 easy tips to remove blackheads

Blackheads are small bumps on your face that occur when the hair follicles get clogged with dead skin cells, oil and dirt

Here are five easy ways in which you can get rid of blackheads

Exfoliate your skin

Regular exfoliation can help remove excessive amounts of dead skin cells that often clog the skin pores on your face

Wash your face twice a day

Washing your face twice a day, especially after working out as it helps maintain a good skin hygiene and keep the pores unclogged

Use a charcoal mask

Charcoal is an excellent detoxifying agent that can help remove excess oil and dirt from the skin and prevent blackheads

Use retinol cream

According to the studies, retinol can help unclog pores and prevent blackheads and pimples

Use a serum with AHA

Using a serum with alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) can help remove dead skin cells and blackheads and minimise acne caused by blackheads and whiteheads
