Blackheads

[Aquilah]

Don't those Biore strips work on these? I've never had a lot of blackheads, so I'm not sure, but I realized the other night John has a lot of them!

I've never had blackheads maybe I am just lucky?  I find a good facial mask get's rid of nasty things like blackheads really well if you can try and find one with clay. I think the Body Shop may sell them at an affordable price I have never tried them for myself. 

My favourite mask is Express Flower Gel by Sisley, I also like L’Occitane's Spring Clean Cooling Clay Mask and Lancôme Hydra Intense.  When I am in London I hear that Simple Deep Cleansing Facial Mask is also good and it's only £3.

I've been having the same problem. I use Clean & Clear's Blackhead Clearing Scrub... it works pretty well for me.

Alpha Hydrox!!! and make sure the foundation / primer you use is non-comedogenic. And make sure the moisturizer you use is oil free, mineral oil free, etc.

A little piece of duct tape works pretty well.  I don't think there's a great way to get rid of them permanently, though.  Thanks, genetics!

Hi

I understand what you are going through. There is a simple remedy to ease up and get rid off blackheads.

Wash your face with gentle face wash. take 1 T-spoon of olive oil and 1/2 T spoon of honey. mix and apply on your face and massage in a circular motion.

after 2/3 minutes of massage , take a steam on your face. If you do not have a steamer, you can use any pot. Heat the water., remove pot from the stove....keep your face over the steaming hot water and cover the head with a towel. as you sweat, the pores will be open.and the blackheads will be loosen.after about 10 minutes of steam, remove the towel. clean sweat with paper towel.look into mirror and press slowly around the blackhead. It will come out without damaging your skin.

repeat 2/3 times a week.your face will clear out. Good luck.
