Wrong category, sorry. Salt water?
Is salt water good for getting rid of blackheads and pimples?
Any other good home remedies to get rid of them?
thanks

Salt water is an exfoliant however, despite what people say about strong exfoliators being good they can damage the skin.
A gentle exfoliant is best you can buy these from any chemist etc.
Also for blackheads pore strips can be bought to clean these out. Or if you have a facial sauna if not a bowl of very hot water can be used; place the bowl on a table and position yourself so your face is above the bowl so the steam can cleanse your pores and the blackheads should then be easier to then squeeze out.Don't use just your nails but put a piece of tissue/toilet paper over each finger and press either side of the blackhead gently and they should come out. Then wash your face to rid of any excess bacteria released from your pores.
Sudocrem and dabbing toothpaste on spots is a good remedy to get rid of spots

Yes. It works as an exfoliant.
or even washing your face with salt in whatever facewash/soap you use.
but do it sparingly, it does dry out your skin.

I wouldn't recommend using salt water on your skin because it will dry your skin out.
You're better off getting any kind of acne treatment gel that contains salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. It doesn't matter what brand, so just look through the ones they have at the pharmacy.
Make sure you wash your face frequently to remove excess oils. It also helps to moisturise regularly so that your face will produce less oil.
