Natural Cures for Black and Whiteheads  

The sebaceous glands in the skin produce sebum. An excess amount of sebum along with dead skin cells clog up the skin pores causing Acne or black/white heads. You can use a cream that contains Benzoyl Peroxide as this will help your skin to slough off easily and therefore prevents and clears eruptions.




Follow a regular skin care routine to keep your skin clean and reduce acne. Use a natural scrub made out of honey and sugar. Although sugar is rough it is not abrasive and therefore it will not damage your skin.


Honey contains anti-oxidants and helps to nourish your skin.  You can also add a couple of drops of lemon juice to help to dissolve facial oil as well as lighten scars. Make sure that you steam your face at least once a week and use a face pack made out of Fullers earth as least once a week. Fuller's earth helps to draw out excess sebum from within the pores and therefore reduces the chances of blackheads.  
Try to have a balanced diet that includes a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. A regular diet, along with a daily exercise routine and an adequate amount of water has been proven to reduce and even eliminate acne.
