Blackhead removal is necessary if you want, beautiful, radiant, acne free skin. But many people don't really know how to even begin the process of removing these horrid things. Do you know that you can remove blackhead at home, on your own? Say goodbye to expensive salons and hello to free DIY blackhead removal!
This dreaded skin problem affects a large population of women, and many resort to weekly visits at the spa to help with this issue. While there is nothing wrong with this, I have a cheaper alternative, you can get rid of blackheads yourself-no charge! Just follow these easy steps!
1. Steam
The simplest way to get rid of blackheads is to steam your face. You'll need a bowl of hot water and a large towel. Rest the bowl on a flat surface and place your face over the bowl; use the towel to cover your entire head,face, and bowl. Sit in this position for about 20 minutes. The steam from the hot water helps to pull out impurities from the skin.

2. DIY Scrubs
After steaming the next step is scrubbing gunk, dirt and dead skin from the surface of your skin. You can pick up a facial scrub from your local pharmacy, but if you don't have any at home, oats or baking soda will do just as good of a job at scrubbing your face. Check out

3. DIY Masks
After scrubbing, apply a mask. Activated charcoal masks have become quite popular as it is quite effective in pulling out dirt, bacteria and other impurities from the skin. You can purchase activated charcoal at your local drugstore or pharmacy. Check out this DIY Volcanic Blackhead Remover by

5. Glue
You see how your good old art class tool can solve your skin problem! I know this one sounds crazy, but this might actually hold some merit, so hear me out. Pour a small amount of glue on your nose- which is often the area where blackheads tend to accumulate and let it dry for about 10 minutes. Peel off the glue and voila! Might be best to use non-toxic glue for this,and dont do it too often-I would only recommend in desperate situations!

emons are an amazing natural exfoliant for the skin which helps to remove blackheads and dead skin cells. This increases skin cell turnover and in result the skin looks brighter."
