No matter what age you are, male or female, you cannot avoid blackheads on your skin. Blackheads are “clogged pores” caused by excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. [1] X Research Sources The best skin care practices are often to prevent blackheads from appearing. However, the skin can still get blackheads even with the perfect treatment, and then you need to know how to get rid of blackheads quickly.
Steps
Remove blackheads with toothpaste

Choose the right toothpaste. You must choose a white toothpaste, not a gel one, to be effective. [2] X Research Source In addition, the toothpaste should be regular, not whitening or sensitive teeth. Mint-flavored toothpaste is also effective.
- Note that the “toothpaste method” is recommended by people who like to make products at home and by some, but doctors do not appreciate this method. The reason toothpaste is so effective at removing blackheads and other types of acne is because it contains ingredients that help dry up inflamed pores. However, as you know, toothpaste also contains many other ingredients that can be harmful to the skin, including allergies. [3] X Research Source You can try the “toothpaste method,” but be aware that your doctor may not allow it. If you are worried, you should try other methods with natural ingredients.
Wash your face and apply toothpaste. Wash your face with warm water and pat dry the face according to your normal skin care routine. Apply a layer of toothpaste on the blackhead areas like the nose or chin. Wait for the toothpaste to dry completely. After the toothpaste has dried, you will massage it gently on your skin to push the blackheads out of the pores. The last step is to wash your face and pat dry the skin one more time. [4] X Research Sources
- Instead of using your fingers, you can apply toothpaste to your face using a washcloth soaked in olive or almond oil. You can massage the toothpaste onto your skin with a washcloth for a few minutes. [5] X Research Sources

Add salt to toothpaste for faster effect. Wash your face with warm water and pat dry the face according to your normal skin care routine. Make a mixture of 1 part toothpaste and 1 part salt. (If the mixture is too thick, add a few drops of water to dilute it.) Apply the mixture to your face and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Gently massage the toothpaste mixture on your skin to clear blackheads before washing your face. [6] X Research Source Apply moisturizer after washing your face and patting skin dry.
- Make sure your face is always moist during the procedure.
- You can use baking soda instead of salt.
- Before applying moisturizer, you can roll an ice cube on your face to close the pores to help prevent bacteria from entering.

Wash your face twice daily. If your skin has a lot of blackheads or breakouts, you should choose a cleanser with salicylic acid. [7] X Research Source Always wash your face with warm water to open up your pores before applying a cleanser. [8] X Research Source In addition, you should remember to apply a moisturizer to your skin after washing your face. [9] X Research Source
- To open up your pores before washing your face, you will steam your face by bowing over a bowl of hot or boiling water.
- Always wash your face after doing any activity that makes you sweat a lot. [10] X Research Source
Exfoliate your face at least once a week. However, exfoliating can cause skin irritation if done too often. You should only start with exfoliating once a week. [11] X Research Source If skin is not irritated, you can do it once or twice per week.

Avoid touching your face with your hands. Your hands touch a lot of things, so you need to avoid touching your face and not let oil, dirt and bacteria stick to your pores. [12] X Research Sources Besides, you shouldn’t let your hair cling to your face if possible. Hair is inherently oily, and if you let the oil stick to your face, your pores will get clogged.

Use sunscreen every day. When choosing any moisturizer for your skin, you should choose one with SPF. Remember to apply a moisturizer with SPF on your face every day. [14] X Research Source

Use oil-free or mineral makeup. Powder makeup is usually better than cream. [15] X Research Source Always remove makeup before going to bed. [16] X Research Source
- Always remember that it is also important to clean makeup tools and brushes regularly because they will become dirty and bacteria after a period of use. Always clean makeup tools with warm water and mild soap.

Remove blackheads without using toothpaste
Make a mask from egg whites. Wash your face and pat dry your face according to your normal skin care routine. Crack an egg and separate the yolk from the white, pour the white into a small bowl. Apply egg whites to your face. Next, apply a layer of tissue, toilet paper, or something similar to the egg whites. Repeat the application of egg white and cover the paper 3 more times. Wait for all layers to dry completely then peel off the paper to remove the mask. Wash your face and pat dry the face to clean the leftover egg. [18] X Research Sources
- You can make another face mask by mixing 2 tablespoons of oats and 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt. You can also add 1-2 teaspoons of lemon juice if desired. You should only leave this mask on your face for about 5 minutes and then wash it off with cold water.
- If you like something red, you can make a face mask using mashed tomatoes. Massage the mashed tomatoes on your face for a few minutes and let it sit for about 15 minutes and then wash it off.

Peel off blackheads with a mixture of honey and milk. Mix 1 teaspoon of milk with 1 teaspoon of raw honey in a small bowl and heat the mixture for about 5-10 seconds in the microwave. Cool when the mixture has thickened. Apply the mixture to your face and apply a clean, dry cotton cloth over the mixture. Wait for the mixture to dry completely on the face. You will then peel off the cotton cloth and wash your face with cold water to remove the remaining mixture. [19] X Research Source
- Instead of milk, you can use 1 teaspoon of cinnamon with 1 teaspoon of raw honey. You still have to stir these two ingredients until you have a thick mixture, but you don’t need to heat it. Just leave the mixture on your face for about 3-5 minutes and then peel off the cotton fabric.

- Or, you can mix 3 teaspoons of lemon juice with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and apply it on your face in the same way. Let the mixture rest overnight.
- Another way is to mix 4 teaspoons of lemon juice with 2 tablespoons of milk. Apply this mixture on your face for 30 minutes and then wash it off. Do not leave the mixture on your face overnight.

Buy a product that clears blackheads. Many cosmetic product manufacturers have created products for acne or blackheads.

Advice
- Blackheads not only appear on the skin of women, but also men experience this condition. It’s also important for men to follow a regular skin care routine by washing and moisturizing their skin! Blackhead removal methods can be used by both men and women.
- Avoid squeezing blackheads with your hands.
Warning
- Everyone’s skin and sensitivity is different. Not all methods work all the time and work for everyone. If you experience discomfort or itching, redness or any negative side effects, you should stop the method being applied immediately. If the condition does not go away quickly, you should see your doctor for advice.
- If you have breakouts on your skin, you should only follow your skin care regimen as directed by your dermatologist.
