Cleansing routine to fight pimples and blackheads
Cleanse your skin twice a day
Exposure to toxins and environmental pollution can contaminate the skin without us realizing it. As a result, we increasingly suffer from pimples and blackheads.
That is why it is wise to wash your face well in the morning and in the evening and make sure that you remove all make-up, bacteria, dirt and excess oil.
Use a natural tonic
Witch hazel is arguably the best replacement for industrial tonics. This natural product has a stimulating and astringent effect on the skin, which helps to regulate the secretion of sebum and dry out pimples and blackheads. Use witch hazel daily to keep skin clean and smooth.
Use steam
Steaming the skin opens the pores, drawing impurities out of the skin. This ensures a deep cleansing of the skin. Fill a bowl or deep plate with boiling water, cover your head with a towel to keep the steam in, and hang your face over the boiling water.
You can steam your face two to three times a week. Do not steam your skin if you suffer from rosacea or rosacea.
Exfoliate the skin
Exfoliating is a step you can’t skip if you want to fight pimples and blackheads and keep the skin clean. When you exfoliate the skin, you remove dead skin cells and dirt that can affect the beauty of the skin.
To make a good exfoliant yourself at home, you can mix some oatmeal with a little honey and massage the skin with it by making circular movements.
