At one time or another, most people get blackheads. Usually appearing around the T-Zone – they’re brown in color and, if not removed, can be quite noticeable. There’s a right way and a wrong way to remove blackheads though and removing them the wrong way can result in permanently damaged skin. Here’s how to remove blackheads easily and safely and it’s cheap to do it too.
How Not To Remove Blackheads
Before you learn how to remove blackheads safely, you need to know what not to do.
Don’t over-wash you skin (washing your skin doesn’t work, it just dries it out), squeeze them, pick them out with a needle, or otherwise do anything that could permanently damage your skin. Any of these methods of removing blackheads will do nothing but irritate your skin and, if done too often, leave permanent marks on your face.
How To Remove Blackheads
What You'll Need:
- 1 Tablespoon Unflavored Gelatin
- 1 1/2-2 Tablespoons Milk
Instructions:
- Mix gelatin and milk together in a disposable container until you get a chunky consistency.
- Microwave the gelatin for 10-15 seconds, stir, and apply *immediately* to your face. (Make sure you wash your face before you begin.)
- Let the gelatin dry on your face for about 15 minutes, or until rock solid.
- Begin to slowly peel the gelatin from your skin, discard, and enjoy your softer skin!
