What is a good over-the-counter solution to blackheads?

Help needed with blackheads!?

  • Alright, so im an 18 year old guy and I've been working pretty hard to get into shape and start caring about what i look like. My problem is, ive got alot of blackheads that cover the majority of my nose, I have tried biore strips (blackhead strip removers), and I wash my face every morning with soap and water. I have also tried clearasil face scrubbing pads, but they do nothing. When I try to manually get rid of my blackheads it works well, but there are way too many, and every time I remove one the area gets blemished and red for a few days. Im open to all options! and anything that could help even if its a long term solution!

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!!!
