Blackheads: how to remove them effectively at home

Blackheads are a common skin blemish that is unsightly and annoying. Caused by the oxidation of excess sebum left in the pores, blackheads are the most concentrated in areas where sebum production is the most intense, such as the forehead, nose and chin. Dulling the natural skin tone and giving an overall oily effect to the skin on the face, the only advantage of blackheads is that they can be easily removed with the right products. Biotherm offers a whole selection of formulas, from cleansers to moisturizers, ideal for getting rid of this unwelcome presence and rediscovering the natural beauty of your skin.

Blackheads: is it possible to remove them at home?

For glowing skin and to minimize the appearance of pores, it’s important to start with proper cleansing. Before applying any of the various products, it’s necessary to remove any residual impurities on the skin using a specific cleanser. Biotherm experts recommend using Biosource Total Renew Oil, a gentle self-foaming formula that cleanses pores. Formulated with naturally-derived botanical oils and powerful anti-pollution agents that remove 73 percent of PM2.5 particles, the product is ideal for double cleansing to remove not only residual impurities but also makeup when used as a lotion.

This is a waterproof product that rids the skin of traces of sweat, makeup and urban pollution, and cleanses without irritating the skin. Once cleansing is complete, the next step is moisturizing.

Hydration is key to saying goodbye to blackheads

Although it may seem superfluous, moisturizing is also key to saying goodbye to blackheads. There are two solutions Biotherm offers when it comes to moisturizer. Firstly, Aqua Pure Super Concentrate moisturizing cream is a nourishing product that removes excess sebum by regulating its production, minimizes enlarged pores and skin irregularities while offering moisturizing action. With salicylic acid and Life Plankton, a regenerative ingredient of natural origin, it’s excellent for performing the dual moisturizing and purifying action that prevents the formation of new blackheads. In parallel, you can use, either as an alternative or a double protective layer, Aquasource Hyalu Plump cream, a powerful hyaluronic acid-based moisturizer that nourishes the skin,

protecting it from those aggressive external pollutants that cause blackheads to form.

Blackheads should be removed carefully by avoiding aggressive handling and using specific products capable of dissolving and expelling them completely. Biotherm can help you do this thanks to its selection of cleansers, masks and purifying creams that help eliminate this unsightly presence with an indulgent, relaxing home therapy session.
