4 Home Remedies to Try and Get Rid of Whiteheads

April 5, 2018 by Jennifer Scott

Looking in the mirror and often seeing annoying whiteheads that are waiting to burst open is never a pleasant view. Thankfully, you have come to the right place because in this article we will provide you with information on the best home remedies for whiteheads. You may have heard that a very large number of people are struggling with whiteheads and blackheads. Actually, they are the second worst nightmare of our skin after acne. Whiteheads, and blackheads too, usually appear when our pores become clogged for certain reasons and the sebum and oil starts collecting. If left untreated, these whiteheads and blackheads can turn into pimples which then turn into acne.

According to experts, the most affected areas by whiteheads are the nose, forehead, and mostly the T zone that usually gets oilier than other areas. Oil is the main cause why whiteheads appear. So, if you have oily hair make sure to wash it frequently. When it comes to cosmetic products, make sure that everything you are using is oil free or noncomedogenic. You don’t need any more oil to feed the annoying whiteheads. Now, because we know how horrible these things can be, we have created a list of some of the best home remedies for whiteheads that you can easily try at home. Here we go!

1.      Natural scrub

Scrubbing your face frequently will open up those clogged pores and get rid of the whiteheads or prevent them from appearing. You don’t have to spend a fortune on fancy scrubs, but you can make one at home. Mix 2 spoons of oatmeal, 1 spoon of granulated brown sugar, and ½ spoon of lemon and honey. Apply this home-made scrub on your face and gently scrub your skin for 5 to 7 minutes. Finally, wash it off with lukewarm water.

2.      Baking soda

It may sound like something harsh that shouldn’t go on your face, but that is not the truth. Your skin actually needs something acidic to deal with the white heads. So, you can help it by mixing some baking soda with water and apply it on the whiteheads only. Instead of baking soda, you can also use apple cider or vinegar with some water. After leaving it on for a few minutes, gently wash the mixture off with lukewarm water.

3.      Tea bags

Tea bags are some of the most useful when it comes to getting rid of those whiteheads. Take some wet tea bags and leave them in the areas where you have whiteheads for a few minutes. Doing this as often as possible will leave your skin extra smooth and whiteheads will not have a playground to occupy anymore.

4.      Egg whites

Finally, egg whites are another good home-made alternative to get rid of whiteheads. Take an egg and separate the white and the yolk. Whisk the white until it has a nice texture. Then apply it on your face and leave it on until it’s dry. Gently wash it off and enjoy your new clear skin!

In conclusion

In conclusion, it seems that there are enough good home remedies for whiteheads which will erase them from your face, leaving it absolutely flawless. What did you think about them? Are they worth trying? Let us know what you think in the comment section down below!
