Blackhead removal masks begin with a warm water solution used to open the pores of the affected area. The mask is applied and left on for the desired period of time and then removed. When it is removed it pulls the excess oils from the open pores and removes the blackheads cleaning the skin. Lotions are usually applied afterwards to tighten the skin and the pores.
One homemade blackhead mask consists of lemon juice or lime and honey mixed with other ingredients to apply to the skin. Other plant extracts like grated potatoes, radishes, oatmeal, almonds and rose water have been used to make a facial mask.
Blackheads are sebum or oil that has hardened in the pores of the skin. The tip protrudes through the skin and oxidizes and turns black. If ignored, it could lead to acne. To prevent a worsening of these skin problems it is best to cleanse the skin regularly and use a mask if necessary.
