We probably all know waking up and discovering that the surface of your skin has got small black or white dots. These dots are called blackheads. Many of us have them sitting on our face, mainly on and around the nose. They come at the most inconvenient times and are often a source of great annoyance.
What are blackheads and why do we get them?
Blackheads, also called comedones, have nothing to do with lack of cleanliness or poor hygiene and have nothing to do with either worms or other living beings. Blackheads are simply caused by clogged sebaceous glands, which is why they are most often seen where we have the most sebaceous glands.
Our skin is naturally full of pores, i.e. small openings in the skin where the hair follicles grow. It is in these small holes that the skin's natural fat, also called sebum, comes from. Fat is good for the skin and also something that we need to be produced, as fat helps to moisturize and keep the skin supple. However, an overproduction of fat can result in it accumulating with dead skin cells and dirt and thus clogging the pores which become like a small plug.
It is therefore important to use the right skin care products to help the skin as best as possible, and here we take a closer look at how to remove blackheads from the skin with active skin care.
Get rid of your blackheads with the best skin care products
The most effective method of getting rid of blackheads is a good daily cleansing routine. A good cleanser helps to create the best conditions for your pores, so that they can be cleaned and made free of blackheads. At the same time, it is important that you generally take good care of your skin and use effective but gentle products to get rid of blackheads and other impurities.
Prevent your skin from impurities and blackheads with AHA Peeling Serum
You have probably come across many different skin care products, all of which can help you get healthier skin. But if you suffer from clogged pores and blackheads, our AHA Peeling Serum might be just the right product for you.
An AHA Peeling stands out from other exfoliating products. It is a chemical form of exfoliation that gently penetrates and removes the dead skin cells, leaving the skin even more beautiful. So even though it's called a chemical exfoliation, there's nothing to be nervous about - it's actually even gentler than physical exfoliation and is therefore suitable for all skin types - even those with dry or sensitive skin.
In our AHA Peeling Serum you will find e.g. lactic acid and mandelic acid which together help to reduce redness, fine lines and fight impure skin for a more uniform and glowing skin.
Give your skin a deep cleansing face mask
If your skin needs a little more love, a good face mask is a good idea to include in your skin care routine a few times a week. Here you can be a little more picky about your skin than in your normal daily skin care routine. A face mask can also be a good idea to use to make an extra effort to get rid of blackheads.
Our Charcoal Clay Mask is fantastic for cleaning the skin's pores in depth - and together with other nourishing ingredients, keep the skin in balance. This means for you that you will experience fewer impurities, blackheads and less oily skin. In just 10-15 minutes, the mask works and helps to absorb fat and dirt, so that your skin becomes clean, smooth and balanced.
If you are in doubt about which skin care products you should use, you are always welcome to contact us and otherwise remember that extra pampering of the skin never hurts.
