I feel like a blackhead freak =_=;;
It's making me go crazy! I don't have problems with pimples as much as I do with my stupid blackheads *cries*
I wonder how these girls at my school and some of my friends have such a clean and nice face T^T I asked one of my friends how she did it and she says she uses aveeno scrubbing or foam cleanser or something, but I went to Target and had no idea what exactly she was talking about. I mean, they didn't have an "exact" thing for blackheads so I wasn't sure. Instead, I brought home Clean & Clear Blackhead scrubbing thing, and it's not even really working -__-;; I mean, I don't want to squeeze the blackheads out by hand, I'm sick of it cause it hurts and plus it keeps growing back too And there's wayyyy too much to get rid of by hand. It's mostly on my chin and most of all my nose and the side areas near my nose . . .

anyone has ANY way I can fix this problem?
thank youuu~

wash ur face before you sleep and when you wake up , for the face, i think you'll have to use that blackhead tool.. which is a pain :'(, it will hurt less , if you wash ur face with warm water, or fill ur sink up with hot water, and let the steam, steam up ur face .. then start removing them, i haven't tried any products , but i dont have much blackheads , except on my nose, which is even harder to remove . just remember to wash ur face daily. good hygenie!

products made especially for blackheads never work for me. (except biore nose strips)

just wash your face every day with warm water and cleanser using a small towel to scrub the blackhead-prone areas. it does get rid of the blackheads after a while because your exfoliating.
i always use astringent afterwards, and then apply moisturizer.
if u don't moisturize, ur skin will produce even more oil which = more blackheads.
and i use the biore nose strips every week or so.

exfoliating constantly is bad for you, i think you only do it 1 or 2 times a week? or a month? lol forgot.

^my mom does facials and i believe she says u should only exfoliate once or a max of 2 times a week . . .

i'm not sure how you'd get rid of blackheads . . . but i see my cuzin sit infront of her mirror and pluck them with her tweezers all the time and i gotta say . . . if she's doin it almost everyday, it probably doesn't work . . .

however i think you can somehow prevent it by stop touching ur face cuz ur hands got like soim oil on it too (or at least thats what my cousin told me) and try to use oil-free lotion . . . thats usually how i keep my skin clean

My entire nose used to be covered with blackheads
So I went in for a facial since blackhead removing products never worked for me

And afterwards the skin on my nose started peeling
and now I have virtually no blackheads

It might be a little expensive but it's worth it...especially if it works after just one facial. Give it a try?

thank you everyone that replied ^^

*lovedarlingJ* where can I get a facial like that? ;___;

yeah my blackheads are REALLY bad though TT^TT *dies*

[joolee.]

I've been wondering also because before when I squeeze it out by hand, it usually clears up but now it doesn't even work anymore. It's so gross!! I have so many on my nose.
