Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- 1–2 tablespoons water (enough to form a paste)
- Optional: 1–2 drops of tea tree oil (antibacterial)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the baking soda with just enough water to create a thick paste.
- (Optional) Add a drop or two of tea tree oil for antibacterial benefits.
- Apply the paste to the blackhead-prone areas (typically the nose, chin, and forehead).
- Gently massage in circular motions for about 1–2 minutes to exfoliate.
- Let it sit for another 5 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
- Apply a light, non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness.
