What is a home remedy to get rid of blackheads?

The first answerer says it all. Good luck!

Best way to remove blackheads is an area of contention, the most common method for getting rid of blackheads is to gently squeeze them. Removing the “stuff” inside of the blackhead helps the skin because you are relieving the pressure which causes the damage. We know it can be nearly impossible to leave a blemish alone so here are some tips for gentle blackhead removal: Use a mild scrub or skin exfoliant to remove any dead cells and expose the blackhead. Pat your face dry. Place a slightly warm compress on your face for approximately 10-15 minutes in order to soften the blackhead, making it easier to remove. Pat your face dry again. Place a piece of tissue on the tip of each finger to avoid slipping, which could tear the skin and cause further damage. Gently apply even pressure to both sides of the blackhead by pushing down, then up around the blemish. You’re trying to apply the pressure from *underneath* the blackhead. Only attempt this once or twice. If it does not “pop”, you may bruise the skin, make the blackhead worse, and could cause scarring. PORE STRIPS: Using pore strips to remove blackheads is not recommended for many reasons: The warnings on the box tell you not to use them on swollen, irritated, sunburned skin; not to use them on excessively dry skin; and not to use them on any area other than the nose. Also, the warnings state that if the strip is too difficult to remove, you should add water and remove carefully. Removing the superficial blackheads, along with some healthy skin, will only help temporarily. Repeated use of pore strips can cause irritation and future breakouts. The adhesive on the strips can tear or injure the skin, especially if you are using an acne medication such as those listed above, or if you naturally have thin skin due to psoriasis, rosacea, or seborrhea. Vacuum blackhead removers and blackhead extractors are not recommended for the same reasons as the pore strips. Because blacheads are caused by excessive oil production clogging the pores, the most effective way to get rid of blackheads is to control oil on the face by using mild cleansers and by balancing your hormones.

first, pop them. most people will tell you not to but you need to get that **** out of your face. its like dirt build up. anywhoo then, wash your face a lot. its apparently a myth but it worked for me. i started getting all my blackheads out and then washing my face more often (before and after school, before i went to sleep, sometimes random times if i felt gross) and now i barely get any. good luckk

NEVER "squeeze" anything on your skin. use salicylic acid and see your dermatologist.

Personally, i'm a big fan of the mustard gas treatment. douse those ******* in mustard gas and they'll be gone in no time!
