8. Green Tea
Green tea is rich in antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation and control excess oil production, two of the main contributors to whiteheads and acne.
How to use it:
- Brew a cup of green tea and let it cool.
- Apply the cooled tea to your face with a cotton ball or spray it on using a mist bottle.
- Let it sit on the skin for 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with water.

9. Oatmeal Scrub
Oatmeal is a natural exfoliant that gently removes dead skin cells and excess oil without being too harsh on the skin. It also soothes irritation and reduces inflammation caused by acne.
How to use it:
- Mix ground oatmeal with water or yogurt to form a thick paste.
- Gently massage the paste onto your skin in circular motions for 2-3 minutes.
- Let it sit for 10-15 minutes before rinsing off with warm water.
- Use this scrub 2-3 times a week to help prevent whiteheads.
