🧴 1. Gentle Cleansing
Wash your face twice daily with a mild, non-comedogenic cleanser. Avoid harsh scrubbing — it can irritate the skin and make blackheads worse. Look for ingredients like: Salicylic acid (BHA) – helps unclog pores and exfoliate inside them. Benzoyl peroxide – kills acne-causing bacteria.
🧼 2. Exfoliation (2–3 times/week)
Use chemical exfoliants rather than physical scrubs. Recommended ingredients: Salicylic acid – best for oily/acne-prone skin. Glycolic acid or lactic acid (AHAs) – helps remove dead skin from the surface.
🛑 Avoid over-exfoliating — it can dry and irritate the skin.
🧖♀️ 3. Steam Treatment (Optional)
Steaming opens up pores slightly, making it easier to remove blackheads. How: Heat water until steaming. Lean over the bowl with a towel over your head for 5–10 minutes. Gently pat dry, then apply a clay mask or extractor tool (optional).
🧲 4. Clay Masks or Charcoal Masks
Clay absorbs excess oil and helps pull impurities from pores. Use once or twice a week — avoid daily use.
🧰 5. Blackhead Extractor Tools (Use Carefully!)
Only use on clean, steamed skin. Gently press around the blackhead (never force it). Always disinfect the tool before and after use.
👉 If unsure, it’s safer to have a dermatologist or esthetician do extractions.
💧 6. Moisturize
Use a light, oil-free moisturizer to maintain your skin barrier. Even oily skin needs hydration to prevent excess oil production.
