Ever looked at your face in the mirror and wondered what those dark spots are? Those are blackheads. So what can you do to get rid of them?
First we have to understand what they are. Blackheads are the effect that happens when clogged pores are oxidized. They are a form of acne, but unlike "granny" pimples aka red bumps and whiteheads they break through the surface of the skin and are exposed to the air and environment. Your body naturally secretes oil to keep your skin moisturized. Sometimes due to stress, hormones, etc. your skin makes excess that clogs the pore. Once that pore is clogged and opens it hits the air making the black color when oxidized.
Now that we know what they are, how can we reverse the process? Besides washing your face twice a day you should be scrubbing (in some form) 3-4 times a week. You can do this with a regular scrub, mud mask and microderm abrasion. Just not all at once! What the scrub does is take the loose, clogged, top layers of your skin off. Leaving the newer, cleaner skin to come to the surface. Doing this on a regular basis helps to minimize your pores and keep them from getting less clogged.
