6. Witch Hazel
Witch hazel is a natural astringent that helps tighten the skin and reduce inflammation. It’s also known to help remove excess oil and reduce the appearance of whiteheads and other types of acne.
How to use it:
- Soak a cotton ball in witch hazel extract.
- Gently dab it onto the affected areas.
- Let it air dry and do not rinse it off.
- Use it twice daily for faster results.
7. Steam Treatment
Steaming helps open up pores, making it easier to clean out impurities, dirt, and excess oil trapped inside. This can reduce the appearance of whiteheads and prevent new ones from forming.
How to do it:
- Boil water and pour it into a large bowl.
- Place your face over the bowl, allowing the steam to gently open your pores. Cover your head with a towel to trap the steam.
- Stay in the steam for about 5-10 minutes.
- Afterward, pat your skin dry and follow up with a gentle exfoliator or toner.
- Steam your face once or twice a week to keep your pores clean and unclogged.
