Do These 5 Things To Get Rid Of Them If You Have Whiteheads On Your Face













An average person would tell you that whiteheads is a result of disease or medical conditions ongoing beneath the skin, but that is not the case as whiteheads a naturally occurring constituents of a humans face, especially during the puberty and post-puberty stages when the hormones are at their peaks in the body. 

What causes whiteheads? Simply out that the blockage of the skinn pores will bring forth whiteheads when you press the surface of your skin. This is because the skin does not wait for humans to moisturise it, instead it discharges oily substance through the skin pure to the surface itself and ensure that the skin is never dry or irritated by sunlight, ultraviolet rays and others.

However, when these oily substances are blocked from access to the skin surfaces, they get trapped in the skin pores thereby getting clogged in the tiny space without being able to perform their basic function. Moments after getting clogged in the space, they begin to solidify and hence come out as solids when the face is eased of pressure. 


Skin Health Specialists and Experts will assert that even though whiteheads can be experienced in every part of the face, it is most inherent and abundant at the T zone i.e the nose and crow areas as they contain large and more pores for conveyance of the skin lubricants.

Also, there are basically two types of this biological occurrence, one is popular known as Whiteheads or Closed Comedones, while the second one is called the Blackheads. They have similar characteristics and formation, only that the blackheads are expended from larger pores and the oil (sebum) would have mixed with keratinocytes and several dead cells which makes it appear more darker and bears similar color to the color of the body.

Whiteheads can also cause a pimple infection when care is not taken, because the clogged pore will continue to block the passage of foreign and waste materials from the skin and continuous blockage can lead to inflammation of the skin cells, which manifests in form of a pimple. So be careful not to be oblivious of whiteheads when they are present on your face to save yourself from the trouble of fending off pimples attacks on your face.
As harmless as whiteheads can be, they can cause social panic or distress when the person who carries them finds out in the midst of a crowd, this is why it is vest to get rid of white heads with the simple practices that will be explained in this article. 



1. Wash your Face 2-3 times a day to ensure that your skin is clean and does not block any pore and hence cause whiteheads.

2. Aloe Vera and Tea tree are two of the most dearest natural skin aids that can be used again whiteheads as Aloe Vera clears your face off oily substances and dirts when it applied.




3. Before you sleep, clean and wipe your face with cotton and a preferable toner, but ensure that the toner does not contain alcohol.

4. Use Cucumber as skin moisturizer, because the fruit is highly beneficial for a healthy skin and is mostly recomemned by skin health experts as a natural herbal regimen. 

5. Stay away from junk foods, especially those containing high levels of oils and fatty components.

I hope this was helpful in some way. Thank you for reading and best regards.


Juneteenth: Trump changes Tulsa Oklahoma rally date 'out of respect'



US President Donald Trump is postponing his first post-coronavirus lockdown election rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma so it does not fall on a holiday commemorating the end of US slavery.

He tweeted that the 19 June rally would be held a day later out of respect for the occasion, known as Juneteenth.

The choice of date had drawn criticism amid nationwide anti-racism protests.

The location was also controversial, as Tulsa saw one of the worst massacres of black people in US history in 1921.

Up to 300 people died when a white mob attacked the prosperous black neighbourhood of Greenwood, known as the "Black Wall Street", with guns and explosives. About 1,000 businesses and homes were also 

Why is Juneteenth significant?

Juneteenth is not a federal holiday, but is widely celebrated by African Americans.

It celebrates the reading of the Emancipation Proclamation to enslaved African Americans in Texas.

Texas was the last state of the Confederacy - the slaveholding southern states that seceded, triggering the Civil War - to receive the proclamation, on 19 June 1865, months after the end of the war

President Trump initially defended the timing of his rally, telling Fox News: "Think about it as a celebration. My rally is a celebration. In the history of politics, I think I can say there's never been any group or any person that's had rallies like I do."

But critics accused him of disrespecting the date and the significance of Tulsa to US history.

"This isn't just a wink to white supremacists - he's throwing them a welcome home party," said Democratic Senator Kamala Harris 

Explaining the decision to move his rally, Mr Trump tweeted: "Many of my African American friends and supporters have reached out to suggest that we consider changing the date out of respect for this Holiday, and in observance of this important occasion and all that it represents. I have therefore decided to move our rally to Saturday, June 20th, in order to honor their requests..."

America Great Again" rally in Tulsa will be the president's first campaign event since 2 March, when the coronavirus pandemic put a halt to mass gatherings.

Mr Trump is seeking re-election in November 2020, but polls show him lagging behind his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.

Campaign rallies are seen as a key method of energising his base, and Oklahoma is traditionally a Republican-voting state. 

event will proceed against a backdrop of ongoing protests against racial inequality and police brutality, triggered by the death of African American man George Floyd on 25 May. Mr Floyd, who was unarmed, died in police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota after a policeman knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes.


The rally is being held in a 19,000-seat indoor arena, and concerns have been raised about the potential risks.

The US has the world's highest official death toll from coronavirus. More than 114,600 people have died there with the virus, according to data from Johns Hopkins University, and there have been more than two million confirmed infections.

Oklahoma has one of the country's lowest infection rates, and businesses are reopening - but the state's Governor Kevin Stitt has urged residents to keep social distancing and to "minimise time spent in crowded environments".

People buying tickets for the Tulsa rally online have to click on a waiver confirming that they "voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to Covid-19" and will not hold the president's campaign responsible for "any illness or injury".

Correspondents say that while the virus remains a threat, Mr Trump's campaign considers that large crowds at the recent protests will make it harder for his opponents to criticise his rallies.

The president has said he plans to hold further events in Florida, Texas, North Carolina and 


Is Donald Trump's re-election bid in peril?

Polls indicate that the president is trailing Joe Biden - by double digits in some surveys. A recent Economist magazine analysis gives Biden a five in six chance of winning by an electoral margin reminiscent of Barack Obama's comfortable win in 2008.

Trump is running with the same strategy as in 2016, but his struggles suggest that this year the national mood may be different. The American public, grappling with more than 100,000 deaths from the coronavirus pandemic, a resulting economic slump and now nationwide protests about racial injustice and policing, may have no stomach for further confrontation. The president's bellicosity and bravado, which has served him in the past, at times seems out of step with a public that wants empathy, healing and reconciliation.

The president is touting "law and order" at a time when public opinion has dramatically shifted in favour of the Black Lives Matter movement and toward the belief that racial and ethnic discrimination is a real problem that will be a priority when voting in November.

6G TECHNOLOGY: JAPAN PLANS TO ACHIEVE 6G BY 2030


According to Nikkei, various countries have begun to target the next generation of communication technologies after 5G. Japan plans official-civilian cooperation to formulate a comprehensive strategy for “post-5G” (6G technology). It plans to achieve communication speeds that are 10 times faster than 5G by 2030. China, South Korea, and Finland have also started research, development, and investment. If you have patents related to communication standards, you can make huge profits through the sale of equipment and software. Japan, which is slowing down in 5G development, strives to catch up. 

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan will set up a government-civilian research society in January. Representatives from NTT Docomo and Toshiba will summarize comprehensive strategies such as 6G performance goals and policy support by June. Japan will promote the development of 6G technology using the government budget.

Japan will promote the development of 6G technology using the government budget.


Using “post-5G” (6G) high-speed communication technology, many unimaginable things will be possible. The speed of 6G must be at least 10 times faster than 5G. This is the plan of the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. The research will center on network speeds that can instantly transfer large amounts of data instantly. This technology is suitable for transmitting large amounts of data. Unused high-frequency radio waves will also be used for communication.

6G technology – research and development is on the way

In order to achieve 6G technology by 2030, countries have begun to take action. The Chinese government announced in November 2019 that it will establish two 6G R & D institutions. Finnish universities and government-affiliated institutions have also launched 6G R & D projects. In South Korea, Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics each set up research centers in 2019.

a top investment pick amid decoupling with the US, says CITIC Capital CEO

Chinese consumption is growing faster than GDP, making the sector a bright spot for investing in, said Zhang Yichen, Chairman and CEO at CITIC Capital, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Health care is also an important sector as the Chinese society is aging rapidly, so there's robust demand for good health-care services, Zhang said.
Another potential area to invest in is technology services due to the potential decoupling with the U.S. in that area, Zhang said.



Consumption, healthcare and technology are three sector picks for investing in China, said CITIC Capital's top executive on Tuesday.

"For us, the top priority ... is still on consumption, because it's still growing at a higher rate than GDP growth," said Zhang Yichen, chairman and CEO at CITIC Capital, the flagship investment arm of Chinese state-owned conglomerate CITIC Group.

China's GDP growth was 6.1%, down from 6.6% in 2018 as the economy took a hit from its bitter trade war with the U.S.

Speaking to CNBC at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Zhang said health care is also an important sector as the Chinese society is aging rapidly, so there's robust demand for good health-care services.

Another potential area for investment is technology services due to the potential decoupling with the U.S. in that area, Zhang said.

In the area of database software, "nobody in China will think of against competing with Oracle because that's the international, the industry standard," he said. But now, "decoupling could happen any minute, you cannot possibly run that risk, so there will be domestic competitors in that field as well."

Beijing has been managing a transition of its economy from an export-driven manufacturing giant to one lead by domestic consumption.


Zhang said CITIC Capital has been focusing on "a lot of" buyouts in China over the last several years to deal with the consequences that come with overcapacity in "almost every" industry in China.

"Consolidation was needed to improve the return on capital, hence reducing the leverage through the improvement in cashflow, so buyout is clearly on the rise," he said.

Going forward, "most Chinese businesses need to improve themselves through expanding internationally," Zhang said.

However, "given the overall trade tensions, all the protectionism on the rise, we're clearly cautious on that front as well," he added.

Can Microsoft's 'moonshot' carbon goal succeed?



Tech giant Microsoft has announced two bold ambitions: firstly, to become carbon negative by the year 2030 - meaning it will be removing more carbon from the air than it emits - and secondly, to have removed more carbon by 2050 than it has emitted, in total, in its entire history.

In an interview with the BBC's Chris Fox, Microsoft president Brad Smith admitted that the plan was a "moonshot" - a very big idea with no guaranteed outcome or profitability - for the company.

He stressed there was simultaneously a sense of urgency and a need to take the time to do the job properly.

He also said that the tools required don't entirely exist yet.

Mr Smith talked about tree planting, and direct air capture - a way of removing carbon from the air and returning it to the soil - as examples of available options.

"Ultimately we need better technology," he said.

But don't expect Microsoft to roll up its sleeves: "That's not a business we will ever be in but it's a business we want to benefit from," he added, announcing a $1bn Climate Innovation Fund, established with the intention of helping others develop in this space.

Microsoft makes 'carbon negative' pledge

He expects support from the wider tech sector, he said, "because it's a sector that's doing well, it can afford to make these investments and it should."

But historically, isn't it also one of the worst offenders?

CES in Las Vegas, the huge consumer tech show, has just ended. It was attended by 180,000 people most of whom probably flew there, to look at mountains of plastic devices clamouring to be the Next Big Thing.

From gas-guzzling cars and power-hungry data centres to difficult-to-recycle devices and the constant consumer push to upgrade to new shiny plastic gadgets - the tech sector's green credentials are not exactly a blueprint for environmental friendliness despite much-publicised occasional projects.

There was no immediate announcement from fellow tech giants about any collaborations with Microsoft, or indeed similar initiatives of their own - but the aim is ahead of the current ambitions of many, including Facebook, Google and Apple, which have not (yet) made a "carbon negative" commitment.

That said, software-maker Intuit has pledged to be carbon negative by 2030, and Jeff Bezos announced in September 2019 that Amazon would be carbon neutral by 2040.

Mr Smith made an open offer to share Microsoft's carbon-monitoring tools.

"Competition can make each of us better," he said of the notoriously rivalry-fuelled industry.

"If we make each other better the world is going to be better off and we should applaud each other as we take these new steps."

Mr Smith agreed that "the switching on of an Xbox", Microsoft's games console, was as much part of the firm's carbon footprint as the carbon that went into creating the cement used in its buildings.

However, he did not suggest scaling back on collaborations with the big energy firms - on the contrary, we are going to need more power rather than less in the coming decades, he said - and that has troubled campaigner Greenpeace.

"While there is a lot to celebrate in Microsoft's announcement, a gaping hole remains unaddressed - Microsoft's expanding efforts to help fossil fuel companies drill more oil and gas with machine-learning and other AI technologies," commented senior campaigner Elizabeth Jardim.

Environmental awareness, especially among the under-30s, will ultimately prove to be a big driver for market change, Mr Smith believes.

"I think it's interesting to think about a future where buying a product and understanding how much carbon was emitted to create it is like going to the supermarket and looking at what's on the shelf and seeing how many calories it contains," he said.
