How To Remove Blackheads Step By Step

Blackheads are hard to get rid of but not removing them early makes it very difficult and painful later on. They’ll also leave big holes in your skin when you finally get them out.

Follow these steps to extract blackheads.

Step 1 – Exfoliating Scrub

Exfoliate your face thoroughly with a facial scrub for five minutes.
Focus on the areas with the most blackheads like your nose, lip area, forehead and cheeks.
Rinse with warm water.

Step 2 – Facial Steam

Add two tablespoons of baking soda to a pot of water and bring it to a boil.
Drape a towel over your head and steam your face for five minutes.
This opens your pores and softens your skin making extraction easier.

Step 3 - Extraction

Use clean fingers or facial sponges to gently squeeze your skin on either side of the blackhead until it pops out.
For deep stubborn blackheads use a blackhead extractor. Gently press down over the blackhead until it comes out.
Wipe a clean cotton ball soaked with astringent over the area to sterilize.
