5 amazing scrubs for blackheads for clear skin

Blackheads can pop up at the most unwanted times making your skin look dull, spotted, and unhealthy. To avoid such situations the best way is to take care of your skin on a regular basis and use scrubs at home to keep it clear.

Since blackheads are difficult to remove exfoliating on a regular basis is the only way to remove them. Squeezing can never eliminate them as they will keep on coming again and again.

More often these blackheads are present on the chin, nose, cheeks, and other skin areas where there is a scope for accumulation of oil and dead skin cells together.

With the use of some of the best homemade black head scrubs you can easily exfoliate the dead skin and keep blackheads away.

Sugar and coconut oil

Sugar is a good exfoliate that clears the clogged pores and removes dead skin cells. When combined with the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties of coconut oil the scrub gives amazing results. The mixture of sugar and coconut oil not only removes dead skin cells but also nourishes the skin keeping it supple and healthy.

Yogurt and oatmeal scrub

Both yogurt and oatmeal are rich in nutrients and when the two are mixed together as a face scrub they remove the blackheads plus nourish the skin. Oatmeal absorbs excess oil thereby reducing chances of blackhead formation. Yoghurt nourishes the skin and keeps it hydrated. You can also add a spoonful of orange peel powder to this pack for deep cleansing of skin pores.

Salt and lemon pack

These two ingredients are easily available in every household. Salt works as a good exfoliate whereas the vitamin C in lemon cleans the clogged pores and stops the excessive accumulation of oil on the face.

Instead of salt, you can also prepare a blackhead scrub by mixing baking soda and lemon juice. It is as effective.

Brown sugar and cucumber

Brown sugar treats whiteheads and blackheads as it is an effective exfoliator. But if you use only brown sugar it will dry the skin. Hence it should be combined with cucumber juice which keeps the skin hydrated and ensures that both blackheads and acne do not affect the skin.

Green tea scrub

Green tea is used as a detox drink for removing toxic substances in the body. It is equally good as a detox ingredient for removing dirt and grime from the skin. Since green tea is rich in antioxidants it removes all the impurities and excess oil that are the leading causes of blackheads.
