Blackheads – Natural Removal Methods!

Blackheads, or black spots on the skin, are one of the most common aesthetic skin problems. They most often appear on oily skin. Blackheads are formed as a result of clogged skin pores, improper daily hygiene or changes in the ambient temperature, which causes the accumulation of fat and the formation of black spots on the skin. Why are they black? – As they  are in constant contact with air, their outer layer oxidizes and turns black.

Usually, blackheads appear on and around the nose, i.e. the face – the most important part of the body that we would like to be flawless. Blackheads are a real nightmare for many women. Fortunately, there are many natural methods of removing them – they are cheap and we can treat them in our own bathroom!
