What can I do to get rid of my blackheads without buying a product off the shelf? Is there an at home remedy?

Pore strips don't work for me. I've had blackheads a long time and they aren't very visible but I want them gone. Thanks =]What can I do to get rid of my blackheads without buying a product off the shelf? Is there an at home remedy?
In my opinion, the best method to get rid of blackheads is to first of all have a steam bath to open your pores, before gently massaging tea tree oil soap into your skin.





Rinse off the soap, and gently massage an exfoliating scrub into your skin. This scrub is made from baking powder, baking soda, table salt, and water.





Rinse off the scrub, and finish the treatment by gently massaging aloe vera gel into your skin, to soothe and moisturize it.What can I do to get rid of my blackheads without buying a product off the shelf? Is there an at home remedy?
Try hydrogen peroxide and water and although its off a shelf. . .a natural mud mask.They work wonderful and clean everything out of your pores and keep your skin nice and fresh.
try warm salt water. and also try steam.
i heard that by applying a layer of egg white on top of the blackheads skin area, and use a facial cotton on top of the egg white to cover your skin (so it works like a strip when the egg white has dried, and you can just pull it out) - i am not sure whether it works well though.


there is another one which is using the egg white as well - by this time, instead of using the facial cotton, you use the membrane of the egg (the white thin layer that is around the egg shell) as a strip when it's dried. i think this is ok, not extremely well, but it works a little. and some of the blackheads, when you can really see the ';heads';, use a tweezer to pull them out. by the way, i think it's better doing it after you have your shower when all the pores have opened up.


after all, i think blackheads are really hard to get rid of - i have the same problem too :( good luck!
