*-- DIY Blackhead Remover --*
Everyone hates blackheads. They are impossible to get rid of and they are very unsightly. And they can lead to pesky zits. You can use the adhesive strips, tape, and all sorts of other torture treatments to get rid of them or you can use this homemade recipes below!

This recipe is made with 3 simple every day ingredients and can be used up to twice a week. Use this mixture at night though because it does contain lemon and the lemon can burn your face if you expose your face to sunlight after using it.



Recipe:
Sea Salt - 1 tbsp
Lemon - 1/2 tsp
Water - 1 tsp

Lemon is used because the citric acid in the lemon cleans and brightens your skin and at the same time fights the bacterial that is in your pores.

The salt is used as an antibacterial agent and also unclogs the pores by getting rid of the germs.



The Mixture:

-Mix all of the ingredients into a bowl.

-Put the mixture on your blackheads only or you can put it everywhere on your face to help get rid of any you haven't seen yet.

-Massage the mixture into your skin in a circular motion. Make sure to concentrate on the biggest problem areas. Do this for 2-4 minutes. For more problem areas, 4 minutes may be better.

-After you're done massaging, rinse your face with lukewarm water.

-Wait a few minutes then wash your face again, this time using cold water to help close up the pores.
