Blackheads help ???

i have got blackheads i have tryed clean and clear blackhead toner and it dont work some one help plz !!!!!!!Blackheads help ???
I have the same problem. I also tried the cleanser you mention, expecting that it would actually do something but it had zero effect. I accidentally came across something that seems to keep them less obtrusive: tea tree oil facial wipes. I dont know how it works but my blackheads are much improved. The other thing I did was get a facial done that was aimed at removing them. The beautician smeared on some lotion stuff, and then used steam treatment to open the pores, and then squeezed them out....it hurt like hell but it did the trick for a few months.Blackheads help ???
Nose-Stips, try T-zone.
Despite what everyone says, actually squeezing them is the fastest and effective way of getting them out. Yeah, do steam do open your pores, then have a go at popping the lil suckers out. The thing is, its actually your nails, cutting into your skin that cause nearly all the damage. Using a special tool, or squeezing the skin around the area with your fingertips, will eventually break the pressure. you should be left with little hard nucleas of dirt, with some stringy white stuff, just grab that between your fingernails and pull, just pull all the dirt out. Less than a day later, should be no redness, or swelling, if youve done it right.
Try those blackhead strips by Ponds. You put them on and they actually pull the blackheads out.
Use blackhead and pore clearing strips. They will pull all the little sods out and are easy to use. I recommend the brand t-zone. Good luck x
Use something with an active ingredient Benzyol Peroxide. Proactive's products have it in there's. I recommend Clinique's Emergency Gel it has 5% and Proactive has only 2.5% as you build your strength up you can use Glytone's 10% (which is the strongest) I use Clinique's 3-Step twice a day and put my Emergency Gel just on my nose and I am Blackhead Free.
A blackhead is a plug of dry, dehydrated sebum (your skin's natural lubricant) that gets ';stuck in your pores on the way out of your skin due to several reasons:





1. Lack of water in your system


2. Excess dead cells blocking the opening to the pore


3. Excess Oil being Produced by you


4. Improper cleansing routine, oil not being removed


5. Products / makeup you are using (or not using)!.

Believe it or not, gently squeezing blackheads is an effective method of removal. Before you squeeze, you’ve got to loosen the blackheads to make removal easier. Heat is a good way to loosen up the blackhead. Either steam the face, or hold a warm compress against the blackheads. If using a compress, first prepare a mixture of warm water, iodine and Epsom salt and then use the mixture to moisten the compress. Once the blackheads are loosened, press the compress gently against the loosened blackheads until the pus pulls free.





If using fingers, wrap them in tissue or gauze and then squeeze. If you’d rather, you can use a blackhead remover. This is a specially-designed tool with a different-sized opening at each end. Place one of the open ends atop the blackhead and push lightly. The pus should come right out.





However, an even better way to deal with blackheads is to keep them from developing in the first place. Wash acne-prone areas twice daily using soap and warm water. Use a product containing benzyl peroxide if your skin can handle it. In addition to washing blackhead-prone areas, also use a mud mask to deep clean your pores.





Exfoliating your skin is also an effective way of keeping blackheads under control. This removes the dead skin cells so they can’t clog the pores. Exfoliate several times a week, if your skin can tolerate this. And finally, keep hands and hair away from areas prone to blackheads. The dirt will only make matters worse.

hope this helps
try Biore pore strips...they work really well. they pull the black heads right out.





when cleaning your face....use warm water to open up your pores and get the dirt out. when you are done, finish with a splash of cold water to close your pores and prevent dirt from getting in.
use something with salicylic acid in it. it will take about a year for them to all go away, but just use concealer in the meantime.
I use biore nose/face strips every week. You can see the blackheads it pulls out... kinda gross but it works. I also like proactiv... it works great! I would also suggest finding a scrub and mask that you like... i personally use biore but that's up to you. Before using the strips or whatever product you choose, put a hot washcloth over your face, the steam will open up your pores. Then use the strips or other products to clean out your pores. Then use an ice cube or cold washcloth on your face to close your pores up temporarily. It takes time but a consistent schedule will be your best bet in the long run. I used proactiv for about 2 weeks straight (morning and night) before my face actually got completely clear and stayed that way! Good Luck! :)
DOVE SOAP AND FACIAL CLEANSERS!!
Pore strips really help to reduce the size of the pores..I think wash that contains sand helps a lot along with the pore strips that reduce the pore size.White heads are a different thing
Buy a blackhead remover from the Body Shop to squeeze them out.
try proactive it works really really good!!!!!me and all my friends used it and all my blackheads and acne disappeared and it never came back.
proactive solution 20 bucks worked for me
all you really need to do is exfoliate properly and regularly and you shouldnt have any problems. i have them too and it helps me :)
i have them to use a blackhead removal strip once a week or put spot cream on the effected area for a few days that might work
Agree with Emmylou. Dermalogica is fantastic. I started having spots at the age of 30---yes 30, after never having had teenage spots. I couldn't find anything that helped and then I read about one of the soap stars using Dermalogica. I have never looked back. I also treat myself once a month to a facial and the beautician uses all their range. I love the Special Cleasing Gel and Active Moist moisturiser. You could try their facial scrub aswell and also try a steam treatment to open up your pores and try and gently squeeze the little blighters out. Half fill a bowl with HOT water and put your head over it under a towel. Stay there for about 10 minutes to open your pores and then have a gentle squeeze. Not too hard or you will scar. Some of them will come out easily but you might have to invest in something like Dermalogica for the stubborn ones. Try www.youbeauty.net for cheaper prices than shopping on the high street. Good luck!
Hi, I actually read this really good article about natural tips for blackhead removal, you'll find more useful information there I'm sure, I did

Use Oil Cleansing Method [OCM].





With OCM most people start with a 50:50 mix of Extra Virgin Olive Oil : Castor Oil, which most people have in their homes already. The EVOO is moisturizing where as Castor Oil is cleansing – some people will use other oils (I personally use nothing but Jojoba oil, similar to skins natural oils and healing) and will change the mix to perhaps 75:25 or 25:75 depending on their skin type (i.e. if your prone to blackheads use more caster oil to cleanse), and some will also add essential oils such as lavender or tea tree oil (both help prevent and treat spots) – one advantage of OCM is that it is totally customisable so if your skin type changes, as it does very often, you can change the mix to suit your skin.





You put the oil onto your face, then take a facecloth that has been into hot water and rung out and put the facecloth onto your face, leave the facecloth on your face for a minute so it is similar to steaming your face to open up your pores, then wipe off the oil – follow with a toner to help clean off any small excess oil and tighten your pores after they have been opened by the heat of the facecloth.





Reason it works is because it does not strip your skin of it's natural oils – when you wash your face with washes or soap it strips the natural oils that help keep your skin healthy and help keep your pores clean, so your skin is not only not as healthy as it should be but your skin also produces a load more oil to make up for all it has lost.





Reason for OCM being so good is not only is it VERY good for your skin, but it is also very customisable, cheap, easy to get a hold of, easy to use, does not support animal testing (as many commercial products do) and does not contain a load of toxic chemicals (as many commercial products do).

I personally use OCM to help with hormonal break-outs and bad blackheads, spot treatments did nothing in fact if anything they made my spots worse and did nothing for my black heads, I switched to using jojoba oil rather than the EVOO:CO mix as I discovered jojoba oil is closer to the skins natural sebum also a lot lighter than EVOO, I also found on switching that the jojoba oil works better for healing existing acne scaring.





Before using OCM not only were my spots a lot worse but my skin was very oily around my nose and prone to flaking, I also had blackheads around my mouth that seemed to have been there for decades and were very deep. OCM stopped the flaking and made my face feel like a baby's bottom rather than an oil slick, my skin improved within just a week of using OCM and I now have no black heads at all – I promise OCM works wonders!





A steam is also really good, all you need is some really hot water and a towel; stick your head over the steaming hot water with the towel over your head for ten minutes – this will help open up pores making it easier for the dirt and oil to come out, preventing black heads and making it easier for you to remove black heads.





The pore clearing strips are fantastic as well, these are strips you wet and put onto your face, after a few minutes you pull them off and they pull the dirt and blackheads out of the pores – I'd recommend steaming your face first to open pores and make it easier for the strips to do their job. I would also recommend buying Bioré pore clearing strips as well, they are expensive but worth it, where as the cheaper brands tend not to work as well and leave sticky stuff on your skin. http://www.biore.com/usa/products/produc…





Another good idea is to get a blackhead removing tool, these make it a lot easier to remove the blackheads without causing them to become infected and turn into spots. If you do just remove them yourself then be sure that your skin is clean, steam your face before hand (this is also where OCM comes in very handy as it helps loosen the blackheads making them easier to remove) and put a single layer of toilet paper or tissue over your fingers to avoid adding to the oil or adding dirt to the skin. Squeeze gently and do not force them or try to dig them out.





Homemade face packs are also a good idea; pineapple is a good one to use, as is banana, homemade are best because unlike mask you buy in stores these do not contain harmful chemicals that can harm your skin.

Make sure to exfoliate, a cheap way of doing this is using apple cider vinegar or using baking soda in small amounts to scrub without drying out the skin, moisturiser is also vital as a lot of people with spots miss out on this under the impression that it will make things worse, but a moisturiser is a good thing!
use a brand called dermalogica, there cleanser called dermal clay cleanser is very good for blackheads and they also do a gel called medicated clearing gel that you put on at night. Always make sure thet you remove all makep and do a double cleanse morning and night. try to use non-comedogenic makeup which means it doesnt block the pores. 2 brands that do this make up are bare escentuals and jane iredale. dermalogica also do a non-comedogenic foundation.
