To effectively treat black heads and whiteheads, you must follow a regular skin care regimen. Use a natural exfoliating product regularly to slough off the uppermost layer of dead skin and prevent the formation of blackheads. Apply a clay mask to your face to absorb excess oil and unclog your skin pores. You can add one or two drops of tea tree oil to the clay mask to prevent pimples and blackheads. When you apply clay mask, leave it for about half an hour and then wash your face with water. A similar face pack can also be prepared by mixing crushed oatmeal with almond powder.

Apply lemon juice and honey on the black heads daily to make them soft. Within a few days, they will come off naturally.
