More Information
This recipe is an all natural alternative to remove blackheads and keep your skin clear. Also beware of harsh soaps and cleansers. Many ordinary face washes for sale contain large amounts of chemicals such as sodium lauryl sulfate, which actually end up damaging your skin by stripping it of naturally produced oils. This then causes your skin to try and compensate by producing excess oil, which results in clogged pores and the formation of blackheads.
