How to Get Rid of Blackheads at Home: A Simple Weekly Routine

Blackheads form when oil and dirt build up in your pores. You can't make pores disappear, but a simple routine keeps them clearer and your skin feeling fresher.

1. Cleanse twice a day

Wash morning and night with a gentle cleanser. Skipping the evening wash lets the day's oil and makeup settle into pores overnight.

2. Don't squeeze

Picking and squeezing can irritate skin and leave marks. Let your routine do the work.

3. Use a clay mask once or twice a week

Clay masks are a classic choice for oily skin because they help soak up excess oil. Our Activated Charcoal Face Mask is made for exactly this:

  • Made with activated charcoal, kaolin clay, and baking soda
  • Helps lift excess oil and dirt from pores
  • Best for oily and combination skin, visible pores, and blackheads
  • 4 oz powder that you mix fresh each time

4. Moisturize, even if you're oily

Skipping moisturizer can leave skin feeling tight. Pick a light, oil-free formula.

5. Change your pillowcase often

Pillowcases collect oil and product. A fresh one every few days is an easy win.

Patch test any new product first, especially if you have sensitive skin.
