Remove Blackheads: Clogged pores become thicker and black when exposed to air. And it is difficult to remove blackheads with simple nose strips. Facial extraction is the only way left to remove the blackheads from your face.

Clear Skin Pores: Extracting sebum, excess oil, dirt, and grime from your skin will clear the pores. And it will be proper cleaning. Extraction during facials can make your skin appear clear and bright by removing unwanted oil and dirt from your skin pores.

Why Should You Remove Makeup At Night?

You never forget wearing makeup before stepping out, but do you remove your makeup completely before going to bed. It is necessary to keep your skin natural when going to sleep as it is the time when our skin repairs and rejuvenates the damaged cells and tissues.

Never Go To Bed With Makeup For Following Reasons

Your skin renews itself when you are asleep. It boosts collagen production that improves the elasticity of the skin and reduces aging signs. Makeup could inhibit the process by suffocating the skin and breaking down the collagen.

• Oily substances found in cosmetics used for makeup could block skin pores leading to breakouts.

• Alcohol present in some cosmetics could leave harsh drying effects on your skin.

Cream Cleansers: For dry skin, use cream cleaners whose gentle formula exfoliates makeup and cleanse the skin of all pollutants so you get clean, smooth, and healthy skin.

Soap And Water: Wet your palms and gently rub a skin-friendly soap on them to produce a soap-water solution. When lather is developed, massage your face in a circular motion with this solution in your palms for a couple of minutes and wash out the makeup with a splash of water.

Vaseline Petroleum Jelly: Rub a regular Vaseline petroleum jelly all over your face and wipe off gently after 5 minutes. It is the time the jelly needs to work on your skin.
