Another effective procedure for getting rid of blackheads and pimples is a solution of hot water and boric powder.

After trying the abovementioned procedures, you have gotten rid of your blackheads. But how do you maintain it? There are hygienic and beauty practices by which you can keep your face free of blackheads and pimples as well. Here are some of the tips:
Use creams that have AHA (Alpha Hydroxyl Fruit acids) as they clear away dead skin cells. It is advisable to use creams with AHA every 3 days or so.
Wash your face with soap but make sure you don’t do it more than twice a day. In turn, wash it often using just plain water.
Also keep your hair away from your face as the hair may be an accomplice in spreading oil and bacteria all over your face.
Getting sunshine or ultra-violet light helps in skin peeling that clears clogged pores so try to catch the sunlight when you have time to do so. Do it in moderation as you do not want to get sun burn after.
