A blackhead is a small and dark blemish that result from clogged pores. Blackheads usually grow on faces and it is quite bad actually because faces are pretty much uncovered. People tend to buy creams and skin care products to get rid of them, and of course, there is nothing wrong with that, but this method is quite expensive and we are about to bring you a cheaper alternative.
