Getting rid of blackheads

Can somebody help me on how to get rid of blackheads? I have open pores on my face especially on the nose and cheeks area where blackheads mostly exist. I have read various home remedies to get rid of these blackheads and isn’t sure if they’re really effective. Did anyone try doing these home remedies? I want to try using lemon because the acidity of its juice helps to remove oil from the area. Since blackheads are caused by excess oil that has clogged a pore, I think the first thing to do is get rid of oil in the face. I will this over the weekend and will tell you the result. :)

Dried Basil Leaves for Acne Treatment

Dried basil leaves are one of the most important ingredients that can be found in our kitchen. I use them in various dishes like carbonara, pan-fried chicken, baked chicken, and pasta recipes. It has several uses. And guess what I’ve discovered: I’ve read that it can also be used as a natural remedy for pimples or adult acne. Just brew 2-3 teaspoons of dried basil leaves in 1 cup of boiling water for 20 minutes. Let them cool and store it in a sterilized plastic bottle for future use. Apply to affected area with a cotton ball just like your usual facial cleanser.
