How
to get rid of whiteheads naturally from the face
Those
tiny pearly white beady bumps that you notice on your cheeks or nose are called
as whiteheads. They can be very annoying and you really want to get rid of
whiteheads as soon as possible. First you need to know how these whiteheads are
formed. When the sebum comes in contact with the oils, dirt and bacteria, the
bacteria infects the area and clogs the pore that is when covered with a sheath
of skin over it, gets hardened and a whitehead is formed. You can see
whiteheads commonly on the nose, cheeks and chin. The areas where the pores are
more likely to get blocked or there is a lot of sebum products, chances are
that the whiteheads will form far more easily.
There
can be home remedies by which you can get rid of the whiteheads fast and
naturally. Apart from that there are some precautions as well that you need to
take care of so that once whiteheads are gone, they not be formed and avoided.

Sugar lemon and honey home remedy for whiteheads
You
can make a scrub at home with sugar, lime juice and honey which you will have
to rub on the entire face or on the parts with whiteheads, like whiteheads on
your nose, cheeks, chin etc.

scrub gently exfoliates the top most layers of the whiteheads and with frequent
use, you will notice that the topmost layer erodes off and the whiteheads will
come out with some pressure. Make sure that you do not scratch with your nails
as it will leave marks.
Steaming your face for whiteheads removal
Steaming
works the best for unclogging the pores and gets rid of whiteheads. You will
need a tub of warm water and a towel. Bend over the hot water tub or bucket and
cover your head with the towel to form a tent so that the heat should not
escape too quickly. You can start with 10 minutes of steaming and then followed
with a scrubbing session. You will need to scrub your face with either a homemade
scrub or a readymade one as after the steaming skin becomes very soft and pores
are open. So it is the suitable time to get rid of the whiteheads from your
face. But be careful, gently scrub away the whiteheads. If you see that, in the
first time whiteheads do not come out, don’t worry. Try to steam your face twice a
week and repeat the same procedure, slowly whiteheads will come out.
