Can toothpaste and salt remove blackheads?

Blackheads on the face or nose are very annoying. Most people hate blackheads. Although blackheads do not affect physical health, they will seriously affect personal image. If blackheads are not handled properly, they may cause local infection and affect skin health. There are many ways to remove blackheads. Salt and toothpaste are common things in life. Can they remove blackheads?

Can toothpaste and salt remove blackheads?

1. Salt + milk to remove blackheads

Method: Mix 4-5 drops of milk with salt, and the salt should be in a semi-melted state. The unmelted particles can be used to bring out the blackheads in the pores through massage. However, you should pay attention to the strength and the time should not be too long to avoid damaging the skin. Control it within 1 minute and wash it off with clean water.

Note: After using salt to remove blackheads, do not rush to apply skin care products. Wait until the skin secretes protective natural oils again before applying skin care products.

2. Use toothpaste to remove blackheads

First, steam your face with hot water or steam to open your pores naturally, which is conducive to deep cleaning of the pores. Clean your face with warm water or facial cleanser, then squeeze out a small amount of toothpaste and apply it to the T-zone or the area on the nose where blackheads grow, and spread it evenly until you see a completely white color. At this time, the area where the toothpaste is applied will feel a cool sensation. After about 5 minutes, the cool feeling where it is applied will be very light or even disappear, and then you can rinse the toothpaste off with clean water. After such treatment, blackheads will not appear for a long time, and the next time they appear, they will not be as obvious as the previous time. After continuing this treatment for several times, blackheads will never appear again.

What you need to use toothpaste to remove blackheads:

1. For daily use, any brand of toothpaste can be used, and pure white toothpaste is better. Try to choose toothpaste with natural ingredients to reduce irritation to the skin.

2. Chilled drinks or ice cubes

3. Toner with astringent effect

After cleaning your face with warm water and facial cleanser, use steam to steam your face. Beauties who don’t have a steam steamer can use a washbasin filled with hot water, add two drops of essential oil, and then bring your face close to the basin so that it can be exposed to the steam. The purpose of steaming your face is to open your pores naturally so that you can better remove blackheads.

Squeeze out a small amount of toothpaste and gently apply it on the nose and T-zone where there are blackheads. Spread the toothpaste evenly. It should not be too thin (the skin can be seen) after spreading. It is fine when it is completely white, but it should not be applied too thickly. There will be a cooling sensation after applying the toothpaste.

After 5 minutes, when it doesn't feel so cold anymore, you can wash off the toothpaste with warm water. It is best not to use cold water, as warm water is best for cleaning the skin.

After drying your face, soak a cotton pad (facial mask paper is best) with a toner that has a pore-tightening effect, then apply the cotton pad to the area where you just removed the blackheads. Then take a frozen drink (or ice cubes) and place it close to the wet cotton pad to tighten the pores.
