The appearance of black dots (comedones) is the result of increased salofission, as a result of which this black-spotted eel is formed. The black spot is oxygen-oxidized sebum. This is not always the result of poor-quality cosmetics and improper skin care, most often the cause may be features of nutrition, hormones, etc. But getting rid of comedones can and should be done!
To begin with, it is worth dispelling myths about cleansing agents and means for narrowing the pores.
First, before closing the pores, they must be cleaned, so the means for narrowing the pores - in the last place.
Secondly, almost all the means for narrowing the pores have an alcohol base, which means that the pores are temporarily tightened for you, but the alcohol irritates the skin, which will result in a more intensive secretion of sebum, which means re-clogging the pores.
And thirdly, scrubs are just a mechanical cleaning of the pores, they are not able to penetrate deep into the pores, as a result of such cleaning, it is time to have a clean and narrow entrance, but a wide and clogged bottom.
What to do?
Cosmetologists advise the following:
1. Instead of blush, use eye shadow - they are more thoroughly tested and do not clog pores. To use cosmetics on which it would be designated "Non-medogenous"
2. To make masks based on glutinous rice and white clay are natural absorbents.
3. It is necessary to forget about washing soap and alcohol tonic, which does not dry the skin, but rather stimulate the work of the sebaceous glands.
4. A couple of times a week it is useful to make steam baths (avoid those who have a tendency to couperose). In the boiling water, drop 1 drop of tea tree and 2 drops of geranium, cover with a towel, keep your face 30 cm from the water surface, perform the procedure for 10 minutes.
