Those strips don't work at all, if anything you just come out in more blackheads!  |

Yes you are right. The strips tear out not only the dirt and germs but also your natural facial oils. They just leave big, open pores that fill up with...dirt and germs. Then you have to buy more strips.
Think of it this way, if the strips stopped blackheads too well, the company would lose money because people wouldn't need to buy more strips!
Squeezing them out with your fingernails is much better for your skin because it leaves the natual oils in place. |

If you didn't squeeze them properly, you might get acnes and all..so becareful.
I would goto a beautician for extraction, as she would also close the pores and do a deep cleansing for you to reduce blackhead.
Also Vitamin A, BHA, and AHA cream would help too.
good luck.  |

Listen guys .. At night before you go to bed, or just when you have some time .. squeeze your blackheads out .. be pateint at first because it will hurt more, but as time goes by they will squueze out easier. Your face may get very blochy and red, and look aweful and sore after, but i find that if you wash your face with hot water before and after then you apply a good mud mask as soon as your done.. it will get into your pores and after your done with the mask your face will look like it was never touched!!! believe me guys its workes!!!  |

Hi,
having had hundreds of tiny blackheads around the sides of my nose since I can remember (despite squeezing, nose strips, eve lom cleanser etc) in the last month I have noticed they have suddenly gone. Not sure why - the only things I've done differently are
1) Take Milkthistle tablets twice a day (for headaches caused by toxins)
2) Cut down on coffee and replaced it with White Tea
Dont know whats fixing them, but I'm not changing either of the above - they are almost totally gone and with no squeezing |
