Blackheads? help!?

I have tiny little blackheads on my nose...they are not visible to other people but I KNOW theyre there! Ive tried st. ives blackhead scrub, clean and clear scrub, biore strips (they remove a few), and i wash my face twice a day!!!!!! what else is there to do?? i cant afford to go to a dermatologist : (Blackheads? help!?
Look, no one is perfect. Granted, genes make some people look like pepperoni pizzas whilst other look like the stepped off the cover of ';Vogue';, but its not your fault you have pimples. Always remember your true friends don't care what you look like, and that inner beauty is more important, whether your a girl or guy. There's a site for young girls; www.freewebs .com/reelbeauty11 , but it has great tips on there that can work for anyone.





Check your habits. Do you prop up your chin with your hands? Thats asking for chin zits. Clean your specs often so you won't get pimples on the bridge of your nose.





Don't pop them! If you want them to go away, make a paste of baking soda and water and dab it on the zit, then go to sleep. In the morning it should be dried up. Also, toothpaste or honey works for some people, but its not recommended.





Every other day, use normal table salt and water to wash your face. The salt will scratch the dead skin off your face, and help prevent pimples. Don't scrub too hard, or it'll hurt.





My brother gets zits all the time, so I'm somewhat of an 'expert', lol! Let me know if it works and if you need more help!Blackheads? help!?
gat a facial!!! works wonders removes all blackheads!! LUV IT
Try neutrogena's oil free acne wash, i use to have a blackhead problem too, i would touch my nose and feel the bumps, gross. I used alot of products but only this one was able to kill my blackheads, when i touch my nose i feel smoothness, i recomment using this only once a day and apply lots of moisturizer on those areas that dont produce any oil like your cheeks, goodluck!
go with a more natural strategy that costs less money and results are more promising. Cut a tomato and rub it in your problem areas with in a day you will see an improvement. GOod luck
one word





EXFOLIATE!!!!





different things work on different peoples skin, you could try tea tree oil or lavender oil to calm the skin,


wash your face twice daily, keep your fringe and hair off your face as much as possible. also sleep with a towel wrapped around your pillow; to absorb any oils or grease from your face.





I liked the St ives apricot its very natural, smells good and gives a deep clean, if your not familiar with an expholiator be aware that some dont find it a pleasent experience(it doesnt hurt) (you can make a similar mixture at home with oatmeal...


1 Cup Rose Petals


1 Cup Lavender Flowers


1 Cup Whole Oatmeal


1/2 Cup Chopped Almonds


%26amp;


Coffee Grinder, Food Processor or Blender





1. Grind together all the ingredients until the texture is quite fine. Store in an air tight container.


2. To use the scrub, rub a handful gently onto damp skin in small, circular motions. Allow it to dry on the skin for a minute or so, then rinse off.)





for me different products work at different times, i find witch hazel has generally been the best http://www.witchskincare.com/products.as鈥?/a> i use the foaming wash three times a day and the expholiating gel wash about three times a week (using it too often will make your skin more greay and prone to spots) and the witch stick is perfect for quick treatments to calm blemishes, i like to use this before i go to bed and leave it on over night.


as for scars, i dont get any deep scaring with witch! but i do like to use http://www.boots.com/shop/product_detail鈥?/a> no7 from boots, if you buy it at the right time you can save a lot of money (they have 3 for 2 atm!) and that covers any light scars and blemishes and it doesnt effect my skin, even if i forget to take it off at night!


i find the best was to prevent scars is to just avoid temptation to pop or touch the pimples, if you are tempted, try washing your face. i find it helps stop the urge! if you really feel that you have to, take a shower and let the steam open your pores, that should make it easier to pop and reduce scarring. if you have any aloe vera or tea tree oil this will also help.








*if a product burns your face STOP USING IT IMMEDIATLY!!!!





*TOOTHEPASTE does NOT work, it only burns and dries out the skin* it will just leave a red sore on your skin, making it more noticable! and leave scars





A facial is more likely to give you MORE spots as it brings bacteria to the surface, so you will need to give it a couple of days.





concealor will cover it but i always thinks that it makes spots more noticable so try not to use too much! also be aware that this could irritate the spot more!!!





good luck
