🧪 What Are Blackheads, Really?

Blackheads (a type of acne called open comedones) are clogged hair follicles filled with:

• Sebum (oil)

• Dead skin cells

• Pollutants

The top of the pore is open to air, so the contents oxidize and turn black (not dirt!). They most often appear on nose, chin, forehead, and areas with high sebaceous activity.

🥚 Why an Egg? The Science Behind the Mask

Egg whites are astringent, meaning they can tighten the skin and temporarily shrink pores. Here's what makes them potent:

Component	Benefit
Albumin	Natural astringent that tightens skin
Lysozyme	Enzyme that breaks down bacteria
Protein	Supports skin repair and smoothness
Water	Hydrates skin during application
