Whiteheads are little white bumps that are caused due to blockage of pores with oil, dirt and dead skin cells. A common skin condition for people with an oily or combination skin, white heads, when ignored lead to pimples and acne. Here are a few steps to get rid of them at home

- Using steam on your face is one of the most effective ways to get rid of white heads. Use steam from a boiling kettle or an open saucepan to get the best results. It will open your pores and will make it easy for you to push the whiteheads out.

- Take two tablespoons of honey and massage on the affected areas. Leave on for 10 minutes and then wash it off with mild water.

- Use apple cider vinegar on the whiteheads just after steaming and leave it on for 10 minutes. It will help in cleaning the pores instantly.
