How to Get Rid of Blackheads Naturally

Blackheads are small black skin projections that are commonly found on the face, particularly on the nose, and occasionally on the back.

These black projections form a plug that obstructs the skin's sebaceous glands.

They are caused by an excess of "sebum" (an oily substance) produced by the sebaceous gland, which gradually hardens when it comes into contact with dead skin and bacteria.

When sebum is exposed to oxygen in the air, it oxidizes and turns black.

When they are below the pore opening, they appear as white or yellow bumps that do not oxidize and are referred to as whiteheads.
