But then I found out what blackheads look like on google images. Mine aren't as bad as those pictures though. They're basically really small black dots on the tip of my nose. You can't really see them unless you're up really close to my face, but if I have a bf now, and when he gets close to me to kiss me, I don't want him to see them.
They can't be popped. They are way too small for that. What can I do?
Noelle - Buy biore blackhead nose pads, they have a box of 8 for 10$ at walmart in the face wash aisle and you place it on your nose for like three minutes and when you peel it off all the blackheads come off I even bought some at forever21 in a pack of 8 for 3.80$ and they work as good as biore, they are amazing! They work so good too
ReplyDeleteNadee - They make adhesive strips to remove those. I think one brand is Biore. However, you can just use a strip of tape. Press it down over your nose then yank it off kind of like waxing. Or just exfoliate with a loofa.
ReplyDeleteENOON - You never get rid of white/blackheads "for good". You have to get rid of them, then maintain a regimen to minimize their recurrence. You have a few options that I've used- Pore Strips, Blackheadmask-Before you use any method, I would recommend that you STEAM your face first. Be careful though. Get a pot, fill it half way with hot water, get it to boil. SHUT OFF the stove, and place your face above the steam. Again, be careful. You can also get a towel, soak it in hot water, and cover your face with it. Just make sure it's not hot enough to burn your skin. Then, do whatever treatment you want to do. After the treatment/strip/mask- Rinse your face with COLD WATER, then close your pores with either 1.salicylic Acid, or 2. Benzoyl Peroxide/acne medication 3. Sulfur ( I use de la cruz 10% but it is very drying) 4. Tea Tree oil (I'm going to be trying this one soon) to kill the bacteria that causes them in the first place. Go to www.blackheadmask.com if you'd like to purchase the mask (20$) but shipping takes a couple of weeks. Hope this helps. Good luck!!!
