Oil Cleanser for Blackhead-Prone Skin
Combine oils in a small jar or bowl. Gently swish the bowl to mix the oils.
Pour a small amount into your hands and press the oil into the face (avoiding the eyes). Rub gently in circular motions with your fingertips. Leave on for 1–2 minutes, then remove with a warm, wet washcloth. Follow with a foaming cleanser if you like.
Deep Cleansing Mask for Blackheads
Beat the egg white until fluffy.
Add in the clay and lemon juice, and mix well. Then apply the paste to your t-zone or any other areas prone to blackheads. Rinse with warm water after 10 minutes.
If the blackhead mask feels too thick, which will depend on the type of clay you use, add ½ teaspoon of water to thin it out slightly.
