It’s not a good day when you look into the mirror and spot a blackhead or a whitehead. Not only does it look unsightly but it can also lead to a pimple. So if you want cleansed skin sans these problems, make sure you follow the following routine on how to remove blackheads...
- Cleanse your face
- Rely on steam
- Go for a scrub
- Always remove your makeup
- Use a toner
- Make sure you moisturise
Cleanse your face
If you really want to know the answer to ‘how to remove blackheads’, first start by using a cleanser. We suggest using the Pond’s Pure White Anti Pollution Face Wash for this purpose. It contains activated carbon, which easily absorbs impurities along with reducing blemishes while revealing a radiant and flawless complexion.
Rely on steam
Steam helps in opening up your pores and aids in pushing out the dirt and grime from your face. Moreover, it enhances blood circulation, which makes your skin glow. Begin with holding your face over the facial steamer for not more than 8-10 minutes. Once this is done, gently massage your nose and cheeks to get rid of blackheads and whiteheads. If you’ve always wanted to know how to remove blackheads, make this a part of your skin care routine.
Go for a scrub
Use an exfoliating scrub to remove the dead cells from your face and to achieve fresher looking skin. Make sure you exfoliate in upward circular motions to get the most of the exfoliant. We suggest relying on the St.Ives Fresh Face Apricot Scrub because this one has the power to remove excess oil and dirt from the skin. It contains apricot that heals, soothes, protects and energises your skin.
Always remove your makeup
One of the best ways to ensure that your skin is free of blackheads and whiteheads is by making sure your skin is cleansed using a Makeup Remover. Take off all the makeup and grime from your skin by the end of the day to help your skin breathe throughout the night. Do so by using the Lakmé Absolute Bi-phased Makeup Remover that’s light on the skin and works for all skin types.
Use a toner
Use a toner on your skin as it helps tighten your pores. Moreover, it helps in removing any leftover grime or dirt and it’s one of the most important steps when you have blackhead prone skin. We suggest using the Lakmé Absolute Pore Fix Toner for best results.
Make sure you moisturise
Post steaming and scrubbing, make sure you use a good moisturiser to hydrate your skin. We suggest using the Lakmé Absolute Perfect Radiance Skin Lightening Light Crème that’s non greasy and contains micro crystals that polish away any dullness from the skin.
