If you are one of those with oily or combination skin, you are no stranger to those annoying blackheads. Blackheads are like small bumps or lesions that occur on the face due to clogged pores or hair follicles. These tiny acne outbreaks are usually caused due to over secretion of oil, pollution, sun exposure, eating habits and lifestyle factors.
Removing blackheads is a little painful procedure, especially if they are being taken out during a facial. We bring you these very easy homemade face packs to easily remove blackheads and keep the skin glowing.
