What is the best way to get rid of blackheads?

I Know – Pick ME asked:


I was never one to have more than the occassional pimple once in awhile. I guess I was lucky. That was until I started college. It’s like my face was catching up for all it forgot to torture me with in high school. Now I am 27 and dealing with not so much pimples, but blackheads that turn into pimples. I’ve tried proactiv and all sorts of stuff. Any suggestions on products or remedies?

    Cut down on coke and chocolate (if you consume them). Wash 2x daily with very hot water and a cotton washcloth (but don’t burn your face)

    First of all, drink plenty of water. Then in addition to that, develop a routine for cleansing your face. Invest in a good cleanser, toner, and moisturizer. Most make up lines carry these, but if you would like a cheaper route, try Neutrogena products. Gently wash your face and then rinse with cool water each morning. Pat dry and apply your moisturizer, and you’re done. Each night, wash your face gently and pat dry. Then, apply toner to a cotton swab to remove any leftover residue and gently rub across your entire face. Then apply your moisturizer. In addition to that, get you a really good exfoliater.(My absolute favorite is St.Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub…. it’s the one in the orange container.) Simply follow the directions on the label and exfoliate your face at least 2-3 times a week. Hopefully, this will help you.

    The thing is that you must be under stress because stress is one of the factors and causes of pimples. The only thing I can think of in the moment is to keep your face moisturised…drink water often isntead of things hi in sugar(sugar also HELPS cause them), SLEEP!!!! Pretty much it for now but I’ll let you know if anything.

    Fill your sink with cold cold cold water (lots of ice) and dunk your face into it for about 30 seconds. Yes, It will be cold, but it will cleanse and refresh your pores. Have a warm washcloth or towel nearby, to avoid being really cold and getting a headache.

    Trust my answer. I’ve had blackheads all my life, mostly on my nose. They don’t turn into pimples, but they’re unsightly if you get too close.

    My solution is to turn on your sink to HOT until it starts steaming. Put your head near the steam and cover your head and the rest of the sink with a towel (this will keep the steam from escaping). Keep your face there for 5 minutes. Immediately after, use a facial scrub (any kind will do) to exfoliate the skin cells that you loosened with the steam. Then, with extremely clean hands, squeeze the blackheads out. Not too hard though. Don’t damage the skin. Just make sure that your nails are clean too, to prevent infection. This is what I’ve done for years and nothing else works for me.

    Good luck!!

    This is going to sound radically extreme, but I tried this for three months and my complexion was almost flawless. My family has a history of bad acne, so if it works for me, it can probably work for anybody. Cut out all forms of food that contains yeast, enriched flour, excess grease, sugar, etc.. This would include pastries, breads, pastas (except for whole wheat), potato chips etc. If you omit these items from your diet, the yeast does not have a chance to start multiplying its bacteria in your colon. Think about what yeast does when it is not inside your body. If you have ever made homemade bread dough, you let the dough sit for a little while and then it rises to almost double in size. This is similar to what is happening in your colon when yeast gets in there. The bacteria spreads toxins throughout your body and has to find a way to get rid of it somehow. Often this occurs not only through your bowels, but through your skin.

    I’d say you need an exfoliating scrub several times a week, followed by a pore refiner and moisturizer.

    If your skin has a tendency to develop blackheads, you must watch your diet above all else. Avoid sugars like the plague…no chocolates. Avoid greasy foods too…nothing fried – just broiled, boiled or baked.

    A good facial once a week will be helpful too. Please do not pick at your skin. This causes more bacteria to enter and form into even more blackheads….and eventually will become scars.

    Follow a good skin care regime and in no time the problem will disappear. If it doesn’t, check with a dermatologist to see if there is an underlying problem.

    I agree with phillygirl984…I’ve never had a serious problem with pimples or blackheads, because when I was in my teens, I learned in health class that if you open your pores with hot steam or water, you can exfoliate with a facial scrub or cleanser. Clean it off your face with warm water, then rinse your face again with cold water to close the pores. It’s worked well for me, because I used to get an occasional pimple, but it wasn’t horrible. I believe that most of the expensive products out there today are just somebodys way of getting a quick buck from someone. Good luck!

    DONT POP THEM!!! It’s a quick fix, but will cause unsightly pock marks later on in life. Plus…it won’t prevent them. I think your best bet is to go to a dermatoligist…they can often give you good advice or maybe even prescribe something to use. OTC stuff that’s worked for me: Biore pore strips, GENTLE facial scrubs (Neutrogena is my fave), and plenty of water! Also, make sure you ALWAYS wash your face before going to bed, especially if you wear make-up. Even just a little make-up left on your face can cause bacteria build-up in your pores which causes blackheads. Good luck!

    First of all once you have them getting rid of them takes time. You need to start a skin care line that gives you all the benefits and stick to it.
    1. Cleanse (Mary Kay has 3 in 1 for the 1st 3 steps)
    2. Exfoiliate
    3. Freshen/Tone
    4. Moisturize
    5. Protect (foundation)
    Most skin care programs take 8 weeks to give the full benefit. Microdermabrasion ($55) gives immediate results and can be used up to 3 times a week but it depends on your skin. You should still use regular skin care with Microdermabrasion. The biggest thing that people don’t realize is step five is part of skin care. Use a foundation even if you wear no other makeup. All the dirt and contaminants that fly through the air all day will stick to the foundation and wash off when you wash that evening before bed. (Don’t wear foundation to bed apply it in the morning after you do steps 1-4) Without foundation the contaminants get into your skin and form blackheads or cause irritation. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me.

    I had the same exact problem. I also tried using proactiv, which did work very well! There were 2 problems with that – 1 if you don’t use on a regular basis, then the blackheads would start to come back – 2nd it became very EXSPENSIVE! So i tried an over the counter facial wash that has worked well for me. It is called “Clean & Clear Blackhead clearing SCRUB”! Wash your face twice a day, and after a couple days you should see results. I hope this works for you as it did for me!

    and moisturize 2 times a day (overly dry skin can cause acne as well).

    Drink plenty of water to hydrate your skin from the inside.
