How about getting rid of those blackheads on your nose in a cheap and simple way? To do this, learn how to make your own homemade charcoal mask.
She became an internet sensation when it comes to blackheads and there is no human being on this planet who doesn’t have a desire, even a tiny one, to try her out. But the problem is that the famous charcoal mask activated against blackheads is imported and, in addition to having a high price, it can take a long time to arrive.
So, what to do? Fortunately, it is possible to recreate the famous charcoal mask at home and experience the wonderful feeling of seeing all the blackheads on your nose coming out at once in that black mask.
And best of all, it’s not difficult to make your own mask at home. With just a few ingredients, you can reproduce the charcoal mask and enjoy homemade skin cleansing.
Homemade charcoal mask
Cool huh? Best of all, a homemade activated charcoal mask can be even more economical. This is because it ends up being much cheaper than many brands that sell this black mask. Because you certainly have the basis for everything at home: white glue, the kind you use from stationery, you know?
Unlike the other homemade wax recipe to remove blackheads, which we have already taught here at Women’s Area and which offers a less aggressive cleansing of the skin, this one has a much more adherent effect. This is because white glue works very well when distributed in generous layers over the skin and activated charcoal helps to hydrate and improve the skin in several aspects.
How to make?
To make your own charcoal mask at home, you will need white glue, as we already mentioned; and activated charcoal tablets. Then just mix, in a small bowl, a tablespoon of glue with the dust of an activated charcoal capsule.
To apply, you need to have a very clean face, without any makeup residue. Then, with your fingertips, apply the mixture along your nose, always paying attention so that it doesn’t get close to your eyes. If necessary, you can apply it to other parts of your face where you also have blackheads.
Then, just let it act for 20 minutes, on average. In the meantime, the charcoal mask you made will dry onto your skin and be ready to peel off. Do this gently and watch the blackheads get stuck in the mask.
And if your nose gets a little red, don’t worry. The stickiness of the mask and the fact that you have to pull it to clean your face can cause this effect, which soon passes, in fact.
Another option on how to make a homemade charcoal mask
This is the simplest and most common option, but there is another way to improve this, a homemade charcoal mask. In this recipe you will need two activated charcoal tablets, 1 spoon of whole milk, a spoon of unflavored gelatin and white glue.
So first grind the charcoal tablets and then add the milk, gelatin and glue. Microwave the mixture for 10 seconds. Wait for it to cool down a bit and apply it to your face where you have blackheads. Wait for the mask to dry completely and remove, pulling out the mask and all the blackheads.
Benefits of Activated Charcoal
So, the charcoal mask wouldn’t be as popular and sought after if it weren’t really efficient. But the secret lies precisely in activated charcoal, which offers a series of benefits for the skin. This is due to its absorption properties and also because it is abrasive. Therefore, it is beneficial for:
- Reduce pore size;
- Control skin oil;
- Deep clean your skin;
- Refine the skin, providing more shine, cleansing and softness;
- In addition to increasing the effectiveness of whitening and anti-wrinkle creams.
