Face masks are absolutely important for your skin care routine. They remove impurities and most importantly, blackheads. We all have those accidental moments when you sleep with your makeup on over night. Your skin will need a refreshing start. If you’re sensitive, oily, or have dry skin there’s a face mask for every skin type. Give these affordable products a try, because these are the best face masks for blackheads.
This is a heavy duty clay mask that purifies all of your imperfections. If you have serious black heads or have been ignoring your skin care, throw this on once a week to let your skin glow. You’ll notice a difference immediately. Allow this to dry for 30-45 minutes and rinse with warm water. I recommend soaking a hand towel and letting the steam break up the clay. This comes in a powder form, so make sure to use plastic utensils when mixing the product. Using anything metal like a spoon or bowl will negate the effects of this mask. You might experience mild redness after (it will go away).
Queen Helene sure does makes some classic OG face masks. This minty mask will leave your face feeling completely rejuvenated. It’s a quick fix and no need to mix anything, it comes in a tube or jar (if you want a larger size to always have on hand). It’s mild enough to spot treat a blemish over night and makes it one of the best face masks for blackheads.

All those black heads will and clogged pores will literally be in the palm in your hands in a few minutes—amazingly gross. You’ll feel a mild irritation and it will remove hairs. For those of you with sensitive skin, this may not be for you. Like most masks, avoid the eye and lip area!
