ok so new year in 2 days and i have blackheads all over my nose, is there any way of gettin rid of them in 2 days? if so, how??Blackheads and how to remove them?
Get a heavy duty exfoliater, like St. Ives apricot scrub. I'd use that in the shower, make sure the water is nice and hot to open your pores. Then use a Biore nose strip or something. Those nose strips are supposed to stick to blackheads and dirt for quick removal.Blackheads and how to remove them?

Homemade masks for blemishes/blackheads and pimples?

i need a homemade mask 4 my blemishes and i try claening my face wit cleansers and nottin works!!! any homemade masks or cleansers u recommend???Homemade masks for blemishes/blackheads and pimples?
This is all from personal experience!








I at one time used a nutmeg and honey mask. You mix 1 teaspoon of nutmeg with 1 tablespoon of honey. Then just apply it over a lightly cleansed, non-moisturized face. wait 25 minutes, then gently wash it off in a circular motion. Personal experience: This masked sucked for me. I have combo skin with bad scars on my chin, and was hoping this would rid of it. Instead, it did nothing for my scars, and actually caused me to have a bad breakout on my forehead. Also, the smell of the nutmeg was nausiating (sp?) so I ended up washing it off 10 minutes too soon, lol. But we all have different skins and different things break us out so try it!





Another one I tried was the famous aspirin mask. Cut a tablet of non-coated aspirin and cut it in half. Mix one half with a tad bit of water; just enough to allow it to dissolve into a white crunchy paste. Now, just dab and apply to scared/acne-fied areas, and scrub in a circular motion. You can also use a whole tablet to make a very thin facial mask. Don't make a mask with like 3 aspirins though; you just want enough so blemished areas have ';crunchies'; on them, because the ';crunchies'; are what exfoliate and do the job. Afterwards, wash off with warm water and moisturized with whatever you use. Personal experience: This one was GREAT. Luckily aspirin doesnt smell strongly. It felt great and it was gentle. Of course, you'll need to be sure your not allergic to aspirin. Only use Aspirin, because it contains acetylsalicylic acid, Advil and Tylenol does not.Homemade masks for blemishes/blackheads and pimples?

  • How do i remove blackheads and pimples?

    Try steaming your face when you wake and before bed. This opens pores and gets the bacteria out- Adding lemon and honey to this process helps purify the pores, and calm your irritated skin. Soap isn't that good for the skin. Benz. Peroxide is a proven method of ridding the skin of pimples, but it can be harsh. Before I spend tons of $ on Proactive I would try Clean and Clear Continuous Control. It has more of the active ingredient and is more soothing than Proactive. And much cheaper. Steaming the face is very helpful in ridding the skin of crud. You should try it.How do i remove blackheads and pimples?

    http://ladythreadz.com/search/How+do+i+r鈥?/a>
    how you tried washing your fce everyday, and using skin care products that will not casuse irritation or drying out.
    you can do extractions on blackheads and squeeze the oil out like they do during a facial, you put a kleenex on each index finger and squeeze the pore from both sides. it hurts like hell and I would only let a professional do it. for whitehead zits, wet a facecloth with hot hot water and press it on the zit, this brings it to a head quicker so you can pop it.
    Lol. I once had the same problem. That was until i washed my face with brake fluid. And now im finally free. It has also boosted my self confidence. Try it, but first consult your doctor
    Proactive!!! LoL It Works
    First:


    *Put some steaming hot water in a bowl


    *If you have any add some tea tree oil (its great for spots)


    *put your head over the bowl and a towel over your head


    *Try and keep your head under it for as long as possible


    *When your done, with clean hands and some tissue you should be able to squeeze the blackheads out


    *Do this 2-3 times a week


    p.s i hope i helped!

    Neutrogena Wave work on blackheads?

    ?Neutrogena Wave work on blackheads?
    I have the wave, but I don't get blackheads, but I'm 99% sure that it would work on blackheads because it treats everything else (like multiple causes of acne), and it also leaves my skin smooth, silky, and under-control. And the wave is about $15- not that much because it has great quality. And in that 1% chance that it doesn't work try the Clean %26amp; Clear blackhead eraser. I'm sure it is not highly priced.Neutrogena Wave work on blackheads?
    I have the wave, and it absolutely does work on blackheads. It always leaves my skin feeling smooth and flawless. I definitely recommend getting this product to treat blackheads. Hope I helped a bit. :)
    Nope. The Neutrogena Wave doesn't really work for anything. It makes your face clean, but it doesn't get rid of acne or blackheads.
    it's not work on Blackheads but work in your feeling which no one knows?
    i don't think so, i think it just cleanses your face

    or do you know any ways or any tips on how to get rid of balckheads, acne etc.Does anyone know a website were i can get tips on how to get rid of blackheads etc.?

    the strips to remove the black heads they word goodDoes anyone know a website were i can get tips on how to get rid of blackheads etc.?
    I don't know of a site but here is something that me and my boyfriend do: 1. Take a really hot wash cloth and soak it where your blackheads are. 2. Then use lemon juice and rub the area. It should work.
    You know one, super easy, cheap way? Taking baking soda (the Arm and Hammer kind), dump some in your palm. Add a little water...to make a runny paste.





    Wet your face, then use the baking soda paste gently on your face for 1-2 minutes. Be gentle, don't scrub hard: but give yourself a gentle facial. Try 1 minute to start with. Do this every other night, and apply oily free moisture after you use the baking soda scrubs. Works great!

    Getting rid of blackheads?

    Over all i have pretty good skin as i dont get many spots and it is not very greasy. The only thing is that i ave blackheads all over my nose and they are really geting me down. Do you have any idea how i could get rid of them? thanx xGetting rid of blackheads?
    go and have a facial they wil open your pores and removr your black heads with a special tool they have! remember cleanse tone and moisturise aswel that will helpGetting rid of blackheads?
    If you use Biore blackhead products, they'll help. Wash your face with them daily and you'll find yourself looking better within a week or two. Even washing your face twice a day is great.
    after taking a shower you can push gently with your finger nail aroung your nose to get rid of some of the blackheads...If you want the sell strips that you can put on and then pull off after a certain amount of time to get rid of some. Or wash thats specifide for that....But if you buy the strips make sure your pores are open. So i suggest to do one of those strips after you take a shower!!! Hope this helps!
    try biore pore strips they work really well and also reguralary exfoiliate your skin and try an exfoiliating mask once a week..hope that helps...=)
    The Biore pore strips will only work on your skin if you never pop your blackheads. They're made more for blackheads that are ready to burst, not so much the small ones. I have small ones and I've used the strips many times...I counted one time at the most 6 blackheads that it removed, and it didn't even get all of what were in the 6.





    Try steaming your face (not scalding) to open up your pores and then exfoliate. Equate and St. Ives both make a medicated apricot scrub to help blackheads. I use it everyday and it keeps them small and minimal.





    You can try popping them (after steaming), although many people think popping will cause scarring. It does yes, but usually on pimples, not blackheads, that have formed a yellow crust or a scab. Picking this away will give you a scar and so will not doing anything about it. Just make sure your nails are short when you go at it, otherwise you'll be left with nail indentations on your nose for an hour. Popping them will also leave the area red for about a day, but it will not cause scarring. Trust me...I do it all the time.
    There is a special tool... I think its made by Sally Hansen, that gets rid of them. But after you get rid of the dirt, wash well! There are also scrubs made for it that work really well.
    wash yer face
    Use a mild scrub or 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.








    or





    Method 5


    Rinse your face with hot water to open your pores.


    Generously saturate a section of washcloth with olive or almond oil.


    Place a dab of toothpaste (not the gel kind) on the oily washcloth.


    Gently and thoroughly rub the toothpaste over your nose with the oily cloth. Do it twice if you have a lot of blackheads.


    Massage it into your whole face if you like. Add more oil or toothpaste as necessary.


    Wait about 5 minutes, then rinse your face thoroughly with hot water and a clean washcloth.


    Splash your face with cold water (preferable iced) to close the pores. Pat dry with a clean towel.
    i don't know!! i have the same problem so if you find something that works let me know . Good Luck!!!

    Cellulite is dimples in the fatty tissue of the thighs and can also occur on underside of arms. Blackheads are dirt filled pores. And those weird bumps on the back of your arms are just like pimples and they are caused by inflamed hair follicles and can be treated with topical acne meds. I have a product from Avon especially for the bumps on your arms.Whats cellulite? and blackheads? and those weird bumps on your arms?
    I've got weird bumps on the backs of my upper arms. Is this what you mean? I don't know that there's a name for them. I think it's dry skin areas that are raised for some reason but I can't really see them, just feel them. I deal with them by doing a good exfoliation of the area; they stay gone for a long time.

  • Hydrogen peroxide for blackheads?

    if i put hydrogen peroxide on my nose;


    would it take away the blackheads?


    idk, i just had an idea, and i don't want to burn my nose


    or something.Hydrogen peroxide for blackheads?
    Using hydrogen peroxide won't take away your blackheads. You should try Nuetrigina Blackheads Eliminating Daily Scrub . I also use to have blackheads on my nose I started to use that daily scrub it has helped me a lot. Use it everyday once a day is fine or could use it day and night. You could get it at any store CVS, TARGET, WAlMART etc..Hydrogen peroxide for blackheads?
    it might dry out the skin on your nose to the point that it gets really flaky and peels off (i have the same problem w/ my nose and any harsh products like peroxide or tea tree oil has that effect.) If you do try it, i would recommend doing it on a weekend when you don't have to really go out or anything, just in case you get a reaction! Maybe just try a small area of your nose at first.
    I don't think it will remove the blackheads, but it might make your skin white for a minute or two. Don't worry, it won't harm you, it just won't be effective.
    its benzyol peroxide you use for spots hydrogen peroxide is in hair dye.... yes if you get a cream containing bonzyol peroxide it will take away spots slightly quicker
    It will help dry it out. Shouldn't burn your nose off though!! I use peroxide on zits on my face to help dry them up! I haven't had any problems.

    Before you wash, exfoliate you need to get a facial to actually have all the black heads removed. After they are removed you need to wash, mosturize and exfoliate. The best products for the skin are from the following brand: Philosophy. I had troubled skin, I started using these products and my face cleared up completely, you still need to get a facial to remove all the impurities in the pores. If this doesnt work out contact a dermatologist, he will prescribe you Anti-Biotics, such as Accutane.
    Use an exfoliator every week. or you could steam you face over a pot of boiled water with a towel over your head. that seems to work for me..please be careful..and then rinse it with cold water.
    if u go to the pharmacy like cvs, rideaid or someplace like that in the makeup section u will find a blackhead removal tool. It looks like a micromini spoon with a eye hole on it. This helps so that u dont get reddness. Just put directly over the blackheads and push into the skin this make for even distrubution of pressure around the blackhead. They come out in 1-2-3 yay! :D good luck

    the old way,pop em
    By far the best is Neutrogeno Anti-Black Head Scrub. Use daily in the morning. Nothing else.
    The best thing I've found for blackheads in Biore' Pore Perfect Strips.





    Gently wash and place a wet, warm cloth over the area for about a minute. With the area still moist/wet, place the strip(s) and leave them on for 10-15 minutes (until dry). Peel off from the outer-sides toward center. You can even SEE the blackheads on the strips. It's gross, but it really works.





    Do NOT skip the step where you leave the cloth on your face; this opens your pores and allows the strips to adhere to the blackheads. Good luck!
    I doubt anyone uses this anymore, but try using some witch hazel. It may dry out your skin, so i wouldn't advise using this daily. You can pick some up at any pharmacy, good luck!
    you have to squeeze them out then use all those products, if you do not squeeze them they will NEVER go away, and do it gently as possible.......i know you have heard a million times not to, but that is cause the companies want to sell you all there fancy stuff, just sqeeze em out and apply rubbubg alcohol on a cotton ball to the spots you squeezed......cheap and effective
    If you have a lot, and continue to get them I'd try a doctor.





    good luck

    Without a prescription - salicylic acid. With one - Retin-A. I am 34 and have had them since puberty. The salicylic acid / Retin-A both make the little plugs ';roll'; out on their own. The Biore strips will help pull them out as well. None of the other tools or products work and I am never rid of them all. For large ones, sterilize a needle and gently loosen the pore entrance. Do not insert the needle very far.

    BANISH BLACKHEADS -





    Blackheads are caused by pores blocked with oil. We tend to believe that the black appearance is due to dirt, but in fact, it is simply oil or sebum which has turned black due to the oxidizing effect.??





    While it is easy to clean the surface of our face, making sure that our pores are clean takes a little more work than just a perfunctory splash of water.?


    ?





    Removal strips?





    Blackhead removal strips are readily available at all major departmental stores. All you need to do is to wet the strip, place the strip on your nose, which is where blackheads are very likely to form, leave it on till it dries completely, and peel it off.?


    ?





    Steam





    You could also try removing blackheads yourself, but make sure you are gentle, or you may cause scarring. Steam your face for around ten minutes with a steamer, or by placing your face over a vessel of boiling water if you do not have a steamer. Form a tent with your towel over your head and around the bowl, to trap the steam. This opens and softens pores, and makes the blackheads easier to remove. Then take a wad of cotton in both hands, and use the cotton to gently squeeze out the blackheads.?


    ?





    Exfoliate





    Make sure the blackheads don?t reappear by exfoliate your skin with a face scrub, to get rid of dead skin so they do not block pores. Use it on your nose, or wherever you have blackheads. Scrub the area gently. Do not be too harsh as you may cause further damage.?





    While you need exfoliate your face only twice a week, many women have reported that their blackheads on their nose have totally disappeared after they started using a face scrub on their nose on a daily basis.?


    ?





    Homemade face scrub





    You could purchase a face scrub from the market, or make one at home. Beat up the white of an egg, and add a tablespoon of salt. Apply to your face with your fingertips, massaging gently. Wait for it to dry, and wash off with warm water.?





    You could also make a scrub by adding salt to a lemon and honey mixture. After scrubbing your face, apply a little yogurt to soothe your complexion and balance the pH level.?


    ?





    Prevention





    These are temporary remedies, and blackheads will keep re-appearing unless you target the source. Make sure you keep your skin clean, by cleansing, toning and moisturizing it twice a day.?


    Do not apply make up if your face is sweating. Always clean your face before applying make-up.?


    Make sure you wash off all traces of makeup before turning in for the night. Never, ever go to bed with make-up still on, as it contributes to blocking pores, and will lead to pimples and blackheads.?


    Avoid using oil-based make-up if you have oily skin and are prone to developing blackheads.

    Face Masks that help get rid of blackheads? :o)?

    I only have a few blackheads on my nose, chin and cheeks. And if I try to pop them, my face just gets all red...


    So it can be a homemade or store bought face mask that helps get rid of blackheads.... Also if it could help with dry skin. (I use Pro Active, so it dries my skin up...)








    Thankyou so much if you could help :]Face Masks that help get rid of blackheads? :o)?
    lol this might be weird coming from a guy, but the BIORE self heating mask works great ...it heats up when u massaging it on your face,and after it dries and you peel is your face gets very clean.and it has aloe vera so it keeps you moisturized too. Try it out!Face Masks that help get rid of blackheads? :o)?
    I have good skin so i dont get pimples as much. like 1-5 every month. and they usually go away after a month. I just wash my face in the morning and night and i take a hot shower at night so my skin gets all dry especially on my face. So when i look in the mirror after i wash my face like the skins so dry it looks like its peeling. Eventually my face oils itself up, and the dryness look is gone. After 2 weeks the pimples seem to peel off slowly, and then its gone.





    Never pop just leave it alone. Thats the best, get your hair out of your face. Dont touch your face with your hands. Keep clean. And dryness is the point of acne treatments. To dry out the pimple. Thats how it gets rid of them.





    Why do u think hardcore guys use toothpaste to get rid of their pimples. Cause it dries it out...
    pore strips work but they can get expensive. If you boil water in a pot, stick your head over it for about 5 minutes, the steam opens up the pores which makes it easier to get it out. Rub a dry wash cloth over the place where black heads are and you should see them start to roll of some. The best thing to do after is rub lemon juice- real lemon juice from a bottle, on your entire face. It tightens the face and makes the pores smaller. Do it every night to every other night, not too much or you'll dry out your skin. I haven't seen a black head in months!!
    Biore (Be-Or-Ay) works really well.





    Just paste 'em on, wait, peel 'em off.





    I use them all the time - and, they're very inexpensive.
    Clay masks work well! I used Proactive before and I had similar issues. I don't think their product exfoliates enough. You might want to try that more to help, too! Good luck!

    get a facial, if you cant afford one right now, give yourself a at home faical, exfoliate, with a fine scrub,( maybe a sugar scrub) the ponds face strips really work, try that.How do i get rid of my blackheads?
    By getting a professional facial and having them do something called ';extractions.'; They use a small device that literally extracts them. Over the counter stuff doesn't seem to be effective.
    go get a facial, they will take care of it for you.


    Or you can just steam your face for a half hour, then try getting them.
    We know it can be nearly impossible to leave a blemish alone so here are some tips for gentle blackhead removal:





    1. Use a mild scrub or exfoliant to remove any dead cells and expose the blackhead.


    2. Pat your face dry.


    3. Place a slightly warm compress on your face for approximately 10-15 minutes in order to soften the blackhead, making it easier to remove.


    4. Pat your face dry again.


    5. Place a piece of tissue on the tip of each finger to avoid slipping, which could tear the skin and cause further damage.


    6. 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.
    Neutrogena makes these little mitt like things to wash your face with...they are inexpensive and work great...they have a bumpy side thats great for exfoliating! Took care of my black heads!
    first of all every black head u squeeze increases ur chance of scarring. there is a medical instrument u can buy at walmart or even some beauty supply stores called a komado extractor it's what the dermatologist used.u just put it on the bump where the black head can be seen thru the hole and apply firm even pressure. and don't scrub ur face not good for be gentle with it when u wash ur face just use ur finger tips. a microdermabrassion would work also it removes the top layer of skin. no it doesn't hurt. but u will have to manually remove them what ever u choose, cause they won't just go away/

    BANISH BLACKHEADS -





    Blackheads are caused by pores blocked with oil. We tend to believe that the black appearance is due to dirt, but in fact, it is simply oil or sebum which has turned black due to the oxidizing effect.??





    While it is easy to clean the surface of our face, making sure that our pores are clean takes a little more work than just a perfunctory splash of water.?


    ?





    Removal strips?





    Blackhead removal strips are readily available at all major departmental stores. All you need to do is to wet the strip, place the strip on your nose, which is where blackheads are very likely to form, leave it on till it dries completely, and peel it off.?


    ?





    Steam





    You could also try removing blackheads yourself, but make sure you are gentle, or you may cause scarring. Steam your face for around ten minutes with a steamer, or by placing your face over a vessel of boiling water if you do not have a steamer. Form a tent with your towel over your head and around the bowl, to trap the steam. This opens and softens pores, and makes the blackheads easier to remove. Then take a wad of cotton in both hands, and use the cotton to gently squeeze out the blackheads.?


    ?





    Exfoliate





    Make sure the blackheads don?t reappear by exfoliate your skin with a face scrub, to get rid of dead skin so they do not block pores. Use it on your nose, or wherever you have blackheads. Scrub the area gently. Do not be too harsh as you may cause further damage.?





    While you need exfoliate your face only twice a week, many women have reported that their blackheads on their nose have totally disappeared after they started using a face scrub on their nose on a daily basis.?


    ?





    Homemade face scrub





    You could purchase a face scrub from the market, or make one at home. Beat up the white of an egg, and add a tablespoon of salt. Apply to your face with your fingertips, massaging gently. Wait for it to dry, and wash off with warm water.?





    You could also make a scrub by adding salt to a lemon and honey mixture. After scrubbing your face, apply a little yogurt to soothe your complexion and balance the pH level.?


    ?





    Prevention





    These are temporary remedies, and blackheads will keep re-appearing unless you target the source. Make sure you keep your skin clean, by cleansing, toning and moisturizing it twice a day.?


    Do not apply make up if your face is sweating. Always clean your face before applying make-up.?


    Make sure you wash off all traces of makeup before turning in for the night. Never, ever go to bed with make-up still on, as it contributes to blocking pores, and will lead to pimples and blackheads.?


    Avoid using oil-based make-up if you have oily skin and are prone to developing blackheads.

    I only have a few blackheads on my nose, chin and cheeks. And if I try to pop them, my face just gets all red...


    So it can be a homemade or store bought face mask that helps get rid of blackheads.... Also if it could help with dry skin. (I use Pro Active, so it dries my skin up...)

Try it out!Face Masks that help get rid of blackheads? :o)?
    I have good skin so i dont get pimples as much. like 1-5 every month. and they usually go away after a month. I just wash my face in the morning and night and i take a hot shower at night so my skin gets all dry especially on my face. So when i look in the mirror after i wash my face like the skins so dry it looks like its peeling. Eventually my face oils itself up, and the dryness look is gone. After 2 weeks the pimples seem to peel off slowly, and then its gone.





    Never pop just leave it alone. Thats the best, get your hair out of your face. Dont touch your face with your hands. Keep clean. And dryness is the point of acne treatments. To dry out the pimple. Thats how it gets rid of them.





    Why do u think hardcore guys use toothpaste to get rid of their pimples. Cause it dries it out...
    pore strips work but they can get expensive. If you boil water in a pot, stick your head over it for about 5 minutes, the steam opens up the pores which makes it easier to get it out. Rub a dry wash cloth over the place where black heads are and you should see them start to roll of some. The best thing to do after is rub lemon juice- real lemon juice from a bottle, on your entire face. It tightens the face and makes the pores smaller. Do it every night to every other night, not too much or you'll dry out your skin. I haven't seen a black head in months!!
    Biore (Be-Or-Ay) works really well.





    Just paste 'em on, wait, peel 'em off.





    I use them all the time - and, they're very inexpensive.
    Clay masks work well! I used Proactive before and I had similar issues. I don't think their product exfoliates enough. You might want to try that more to help, too! Good luck!

    You would be fine to leave them alone. It is a bit embarrassing to go to a dermatologist for penis blackheads. If you are brave, you could consider trying to squeeze them, but if you run into problems, it could be embarrassing.

    Try using Nivea Men's Energizing Face scrub. It has scrubbing granules in the exfoliator and reduces oil on your face and nose. The less oil on your face, the less blackheads will show up and the ones already there will start to disappear and become less noticeable after a while. If the blackheads are just on your nose, you can use nose strips that contain charcoal powder because the charcoal reduces the sebum(oil) on your face. Best of luck to you.

    You can use some low potency benzoyl peroxide exfoliating product for removing dead skin cells. It is very effective on the blackheads and is mild to your skin as well. In this way you can remove even the most stubborn blackheads. Also, microdermabrasion can be used to remove stubborn blackheads. There are kits available in discount stores. They make your skin very smooth, and need only be used every couple of weeks. In between use an exfoliator or blackhead removal strips.


    If your blackheads are large and visible you can do some gentle home extraction.


    Wash your face and use a wet warm cloth over the area to soften the top. Next use two damp swabs and press gently on both sides. There are also extractors that consist of a small hollow tube which is pressed over the blackhead so that it is squeezed into the hollow center. Do not use fingernails or anything sharp as it will injure skin.
    you should try going to olayforyou.com they help you choose products especifically for your skin type.
    The brand Shiseido has a line called ';Pureness'; that is all for problem skin (acne/blemish prone/blackheads). You can find Shiseido at Macy's, Lord and Taylor, or Bloomingdales..it's a bit pricey but the Pureness line itself isn't too bad and it's worth it for good stuff.. Everyone that has ever tried it says it's the best they've ever used..Shiseido's Purness line has a specific scrub called ';Pore Warming Scrub'; that is specifically for blackheads..it really smooths the area out well and eventually reduces them significantly...just make sure you don't use it every day and make sure your face is clean and dry before you massage it onto the blackhead prone area (only) for about 30 seconds.

    Is it ok to squeeze blackheads?

    I have blackheads on my nose and sometimes they get sp irriating so i squeeze them out but it kinda leaves a hole in my nose, is that normal and safe??Is it ok to squeeze blackheads?
    Either go to a reputable spa to have them steamed out and extracted, or see a dermatologist.





    Simply squeezing at them the way you are will only scar you. Nor clean out the pores entirely.





    In the meantime, use a good facial scrub.Is it ok to squeeze blackheads?
    yeah it leaves a hole because you popped the blackhead out.


    i've noticed with me that if i pop a blackhead and it comes out all the way, then it's fine. put if not the whole blackhead came out and some is still left, then it develops into a zit.


    also make sure you wash your face after you remove blackheads.
    I wouldn't recommend squeezing them out like that because you will make those poc holes in your nose larger and permanent. Buy those Biore face patches. They pull all that crap out of your face, it's scary!



    No don't do that clay masks used regularly helps pull out trapped oil and dead skin.Check out http://useinfo-blackhead.blogspot.com/ for more useful tips to control blackheads.

    I use Clean %26amp; Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub. You can get it at Walgreens and it runs about $5. It lasts a long time because there are so many of the little scrubbers in it. It works really well for me.
    First, get a really thorough facial from a pro, hurts like hell, but she'll get rid of them.





    Then keep on top of it w/cleansing %26amp; Biore nose strips.

    What's wrong with squeezing blackheads?

    blackheads/whiteheads,etc..





    why shouldnt I squeeze them?What's wrong with squeezing blackheads?
    Anytime you drain or squeeze a blackhead or pimple it leaves a cavity where the pus has been. If bacteria get into the cavity and it seals it could cause you to have an infection or an abscess. Either one can get much larger than a pimple or blackhead and require medical treatment.What's wrong with squeezing blackheads?
    When you squeeze them, you actually spread the bacteria under your skin causing more pimples or an infection to start. Also, you'll get large pores and scares that you'll regret later in life.
    depending on the size, it can scar. I sterilize a needle and stick it in a zit because its tiny and scabs less

    Blackheads (How to conceal)?

    OK Im a man and I got a few blackheads around the knose and upper cheeks. Its p*ssing me off. I want them gone or covered up. I have just learn a friend, thats a man friend uses make-up to cover those beasts.

    Don't put make-up on them cox the chances are might make it work, use a face wash (OXI, Clean and Clear, Clearasil) to help prevent black-heads.





    Hope that Helps!Blackheads (How to conceal)?
    Covering up blackheads is the worst thing you could possibly do.


    They are blocked pours that have got bacteria caught in them so although rubbing greasy foundation over them will cover them in the short term, it will just make them worse.


    Use tea tree oil on them. This stuff is amazing at getting rid of spots and blackheads.
    i had blackheads when i was at school..


    the only and best way to get rid of them is to pick them.. i know it sounds horrible but it's the best way..


    use your fingers like if you where picking a spot. and it just comes out like a tiny black thing.. It will leave a like hole,,depending on how big it is. but it will be gone, and no one won't see it..


    Best way trust me..


    It will hurt but it will go straight away..
    Biore Strips ....I am a man and have used these. They are like dry piece of tape. Wet it and plaster it ...say across your nose. Let it dry and peel it off and whammo the blackheads stick to the tape and come out.





    This is an ongoing regimen because you continue to fill your pores with that crappy oily stuff that turns into blackheads
    yea dont cover them up because a blackhead is dirt in your open pores - clean them using strips or cleanser. You can get pore minimising lotion which can help reduce the size of your pores and then the blackheads may not appear so regularly. Keep cleaning that face of yours!
    Well if you put stuff on top of them they will just get worse. Trust me. But if you are determined to get rid use a dark foundation and just dab it on top of the blackheads.
    Use biore strips.

    probablly not....term for blackheads is ';comedomes';......for severe ones, you may need to ask at a beauty supply store about a comedome extractor, or a salon that specializes in facials....improper washing may be a cause ( clogged pores).....use face wash, not soap or detergents %26amp; preferrably fragrance free...wet with warm water (opens the pores) gently wash %26amp; rinse thoroughly...follow with a splash of cold water (closes the pores).....before applying anything to the face ( moisturizers, cosmetics, etc) splash with cold water to assure the pores are closed to help prevent any of it from clogging up the pores
    You may have blemishes, you can try something especially made for that. They have so much stuff in the stores now to fix any acne problem. Just take your time and find the one that best fits your problem
    Go see a Dermatologist or Esthetician. They have special products and tools to get rid of Black heads. As far as over the counter products im not to sure. I have sensitive skin so I use Neutrogena they have a scrub too thats really good I forgot what it's called but it is blue and they have micro-beads in it.

    No, but it works on closed ones.

    How can i reduce my blackheads n contract my pores?

    Use blackhead strips and benzoyl peroxide. Pore minimizer cream will shrink pores.How can i reduce my blackheads n contract my pores?
    Reduce Blackheads


    Step 1 - Cleanse the face thoroughly with a good cleanser meant for oily skin. Preferrably use a salicylic acid cleanser





    Step 2 - Apply an astringent. It helps reduce oiliness. If its a bit harsh mix a bit of rose water in it.





    Step 3 - Apply a good quality medicated cream or gel containing resorcinol, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. This helps is soaking the oil and helps in peeling away the blackheads








    Effective Tips to get rid of blackheads





    -Exfoliate the blackhead prone area 3-4 times a week using facial exfoliators and scrubs.


    -Use creams containing AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Fruit acids) like glyco-creams that will clear away any dead skin cells and ';expose'; the blackhead. Use the AHA's every 3 days or so.


    -Keep your hair away from your face. Greasy hair and skin go together, and hair can spread infection.


    -Sunshine or ultra-violet light encourages skin peeling, and so helps to clear blocked pores. So sunbathing or use of sun-beds in moderation can be helpful.


    -Avoid washing the face with soaps more than twice a day. Instead wash your face often with plain water splashes.


    -Often use a mask with a clay base.








    About pores


    What purpose do the pores serve? Pores are the passageways for oil to be released onto the skin. Our body temperature is in part controlled by the release of sweat through the pores too. Pores always follow a hair follicle, so wherever there is hair, there will be a pore. They are barely visible on those prone to drier skin, but individuals with oily or thicker skin tend to have larger, more noticeable pores.





    Why do you have enlarged pores? Genetics may certainly be to blame. A tendency to have glaborous skin (thicker, oilier skin with larger pores) is often a familial trait. Sun damage is another cause. As we age, one of the ways sun damage shows is through the enlargement of the pores.





    The pores may be more visible simply due to lack of good skin grooming and poor exfoliation. Too much surface oil and remnant naturally shed skin cells clinging to the pores can create the illusion of the pores being larger than they really are. Blackheads also draw the eye to the pores, regardless of their true size. Enlarged pores are not the same as having blackheads, although the 2 can certainly be present simultaneously. Pores are a natural part of the skin; blackheads are the plugs that can occur through issues related to poor natural skin exfoliation. Contact with air causes a chemical reaction known as oxidation that in turn causes the part of the plug that is contacting the air to look black and makes them noticeable.





    While no one can truly change the physical diameter of a pore, their appearance can certainly be minimized. Skin care is going to be your mainstay for minimizing the visibility of those large pores. These are the steps you need to take if you find yourself afflicted by large pores that you just haven鈥檛 been able to fix:


    Remove excessive surface oils


    Use oil-free skin care products


    Unplug any blackheads


    Smooth out the edges


    Reduce sun damage





    Remove The Oils





    Too much oil causes the skin to look shiny, drawing attention to any imperfections including pore size. A good cleanser is the first step in ridding the skin of this unwanted oil and preventing the overgrowth of problem-causing bacteria. Cleansers should be thorough, but gentle.


    If you have COMBINATION SKIN, I recommend cleansers that won鈥檛 dry out the normal areas.


    For truly OILY SKIN, you will need more oil-busting power.


    excessive shine draws attention to the pores. You are walking a fine line when reducing oiliness. Oils protect and lubricate our skin and create a more youthful glow. Too little oil may lead to dehydration and irritation of the skin.How can i reduce my blackheads n contract my pores?
    Get a facial first to remove existing blackheads and so that your face is cleaned already. They will steam your face, extract the blackheads, moisturize and close your pores. You can get this service at your dermatologist (better there if you have acne or pimples) or at any facial salon. After that, whenever you wash your face, wash with warm water to open pores. You can also steam your face at home to open the pores and get the dirt out before you wash then rinse off with cold water. You can also run ice cubes over your face to close your pores.
    well I suffer from such things and here is what I do:


    1- wash you face frequently with water (keep your face moist a little)





    2- I use clean and clear lotion for blackheads whenever they are much and it works
    Use an exfoliating wash weekly and follow up with toner/astringent (witch hazel is just fine) daily.
    Go to Wal-Mart or Walgreens and buy some Purpose soap and an exfoliating sponge. Use this to wash your face twice a day. If your skin is getting too dry, use an oil free lotion to keep it moisturized.
    Use a Biore Ultra Deep Cleansing pore strip once a week. You can actually see the blackheads it pulls out. Then use Neutrogena Pore Refining Cream daily. You will notice an immediate improvement and the cream will keep them away. It was voted best product by readers of Cosmo.
    In all honesty, your pores will never really shrink. A pore minimizer actually causes slight swelling around the pores to make them look smaller. Use the wrong kind or a cream that is too strong and you'll look ';puffy';.





    As far as Blackheads, pore strips are good, and multiple daily face washings.





    A facial skin buffer is a good idea, it'll keep the pore edges smooth and in the longrun it will reduce wrinkling, which occurs from pore crease to pore crease.
    Pore mimimizer takes forever to work, and then you only see slight changes in your pores.Use a toner after you wash your face it will get the dirt out of your pores and reduce your risk of blackeads.





    Good Luck





    * Clean and Clear Toner, Neutrogena produts are wonderful
    Go in for regular facials.Wash face with warm water to open pores ,use clean and clear lotion for blackheads whenever they are much and it works

    How to get rid and to remove pimple scars and blackheads on face? give me also some beauty tips...?

    can you give me some tips? or some soaps or medicines on how to prevent this ones..my skin is oily and sensitive..hope you can answer this one..How to get rid and to remove pimple scars and blackheads on face? give me also some beauty tips...?
    To get rid of scars you need to let them heal or if you have a type of skin problem like myself yuo need to you special plasters and for beauty tips ask your friends but also try things out for yourself as only you know what you like and don't.

    Help with zits and blackheads?

    I have tried almost every product out there to try and get rid of zits and blackheads. Does anyone have any advice on getting rid of them...the zits aren't a big problem but the blackheads drive me crazy...any help?Help with zits and blackheads?
    Try not to touch the affected areas during the day. This is to prevent germs from entering your skin and creating blackheads. Drink a lot of water and eat as healthily as you can. Wash your face twice a day if you have oily skin. If you have blackheads that you can see on the surface of your skin, you can use the rounded end of a bobby pin (hair pin) to press the blackheads out. Put the round end of the pin around the blackhead then press down and in towards the blackhead. Usually, it should pop right out. If it doesn't, wait for a couple days before trying again.Help with zits and blackheads?
    You should probably go to the dermatologist and get medicine like I did. My acne has really gone down.





    But if your looking for something to get rid of them at a lower cost, and you want to do it at home, here are some things...





    When you get into some steam, get those blachead-poppers, and get the blackheads out. Another thing is you can wash your face with an oatmeal soap bar twice a day. Once before you go to bed, and once when you wake up.





    Hope that helped.

  • Pushed a bunch of blackheads out with tweezers now there are red areas on it....GONE by tomarrow morning??

    Im applying vitamin e cream to the areas as much as possible and tomarrow is pretty important...will the redness be gone by tomarrow morning??Pushed a bunch of blackheads out with tweezers now there are red areas on it....GONE by tomarrow morning??
    DONT use creams that have oil in them !!! Use something that's oil-free. And don't push out black heads with tweezers :S use q tips. Take two q tips and work your way around the black heads with the q tips to gradually push it out, but be gentle because it can cause scarring. It's best to do this after a shower so it's easier for you to push them out and it wouldn't hurt as much. Make sure you wash your face with warm then with cold water to close your pores to prevent your pores from getting clogged.Pushed a bunch of blackheads out with tweezers now there are red areas on it....GONE by tomarrow morning??
    Go out to walmart and get clearisle. I do not remember what the product is called but it is a aluminum tube in a plastic container and is about $6-$7 and typically works over-night.





    If you stress about it however you will simply get pimples over-night so be calm about it. Also when removing black heads do it when you just got out of the hot shower so your pore are big a soft, its less irritating to the skin and takes less time/effort!
    that happens to me and it usually goes away by next morning
    Im not sure but be carful pickin and plucking at your face. You dont wanna look like crater face from grease do u ?


    Use the blackhead peels or something.
    icccceeeeee just in case, but most likely yea
    To help it, put some eye drops on it. Its a little trick i know. It helpss sooo much. In like 5 minutes it will be gone. If not, add anothe drop. HOPE I HELPED!
    Definitely! When I pop pimples or squeeze out blackheads (eww, haha), the redness disappears within a few hours, if not minutes. The redness from blackheads may seem to last for a long time, but then will be gone by tomorrow. Don't worry!
    most likely but next time buy the strips you can just easily pull off. And maybe some cooling jel.

    Please help! i have oily(ish) skin and LOADS of blackheads and some spots. I have tried so many creams......?

    .... but none of them work. Any recommendations?Please help! i have oily(ish) skin and LOADS of blackheads and some spots. I have tried so many creams......?
    i had the same problem!!


    here are some things i started doing/using.





    this product gets your blackheads out like THAT: terminator 10


    it's cheap and really works.





    then, once a week, i use a clay face mask.





    i also use neutrogena's pore refining cream/face wash.


    you can get all of these items from walmart or target. possibly even your local drugstore.





    i also started excepting myself the way i am. i can't change it, so why live in the misery?


    i use to hate myself, but now i love myself just the way I am. i know it sounds corny and cheesy, but it's true.





    you can also go to a dermatologist for help on your skin. try some blotting paper if your skin is a bothersome type of oily.





    Love yourself for who you are. Good luck!!Please help! i have oily(ish) skin and LOADS of blackheads and some spots. I have tried so many creams......?
    go to the body shop!! they have the best skin care products!





    use the tea tree oil line


    get the cleanser, the toner, and the fight and fade moisturizer use all three every morning and night they also have blemish sticks in the line to help get rid of blemishes on the spot it works really well. and if you tend to get dry skin everyonce in a while then also get the vitamin e moisturizer and use that instead of the tea tree moisturizer to help with the dryness.





    also get the exfoliater use it once or twice a week.





    doing all that should help with your problem.
    maybe you are using products that are too harsh


    you could try liz earle products but they are quite expensive


    otherwise you could try amie skincare,, it is specially made for young skin but that doesn't really matter it still works :)


    i like the exfoliator its good

    clean ur face wth no dirt at all. blackhead r removed by specialist n not at home. apply fruit crushed on face like banana,apple ,papaya etc.apply multani mitti. chandan or oatmeal pwd
    GO see a dermatoligist

    Since i was a young teenager ive had problems w/ blackheads?

    is there something out there that really helps? i use the Biore blackhead strips from time to time but it never seems to get most of the blackheads. i want something that really worksSince i was a young teenager ive had problems w/ blackheads?
    Try the nuetrogena.com skinID thing. it will tell you the kind of product that you personally need (you have to fill out a questionaire) and even if you don't use the skin iD then you can still use the same ingredient in a different product.





    i needed salclayic acid, and i went out and bought another brand w/ salclayic acid.Since i was a young teenager ive had problems w/ blackheads?
    Everyone says that there is something out there that will remove your pimples and your face with be smooth. Well, that is not true. Pimples, blackheads, whatever you want to call them they are all apart of puberty.





    I do use skin products though....i mostly use clean and clear just because it is not as expensive as any other brand and because it works for small pimples that are easy to get rid of. But if you have large problems just wash your face and try your best not to touch your face. The germs and dirt on your hands will create pimples and fast.
    make sure you're using them right cuz i was an idiot and went and used them wrong the way cuz i didn't read the directions lol XD





    i suggest reeeeally watching where you put your hands if you're like...sitting in class or something. I usually pull my jacket sleeves over my hands if i want to hold my head on my hands. don't over-wash your face, just in the morning and at night. Use toner and lotion(FACE LOTION ONLY!) make sure your hands are clean anyway in case you forget and touch your face for too long.





    hope it helped...if this doesn't help (which it unfortunately doesn't for me), it might just run in your genes so theres nothing to do besides really expensive facials and crap like that...
    This is going to sound weird, but use those microfibre cloths you can get from the cleaning section of the supermarket. Be careful you don't scrub too hard, and just use them with water. It always makes my skin look fantastic.
    Use clean and clear blackhead scrub thing. Then wash face with warm water and use a cleanser. Make sure that you wash your face everyday with a blackhead wash or scrub! And moisturize when you get out of the shower!
    i use Differin, its really great! but you have to use it everyday, or they'll come baq!
    Use St. Ive's Scrub and see a dermatologist.

    look, the best way to get rid of them and not get them back is not to touch them. if you squeeze or pop pimples and blackheads, it prolongs them for up to 10 days. besides, popping pimples leaves scars and craters in your face
    wash your face more for the pimples. All pimples come from built up dirt. For the blackheads I think you should get the blackhead strips and take care of them now.

    wash, keep clean
    Never use that stuff on your face, tears the skin... Talk to a pro in that area. Get facials, they cure that, I do...
    Wash with benzoyl peroxide liquid. To reduce the amount of bacteria that can cause acne, gently wash your face with a benzoyl peroxide cleanser or a mild salicylic acid liquid every morning, says Susan C. Taylor, MD, assistant clinical professor of medicine in the Department of Dermatology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in Philadelphia.








    If you also break out on your back and chest, use the liquid to wash these areas as well, says D'Anne Kleinsmith, MD, a staff dermatologist at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan.








    Employ glycolic acid. Pat your face completely dry, then smooth on a gel, cream, or lotion containing 8 percent glycolic acid over your entire face, says Dr. Taylor. Available at drugstores under a variety of brand names, glycolic acid gels, creams, and lotions prevent the clogged pores characteristic of acne by preventing older cells from piling up on the skin and blocking pores. In addition, these products leave skin soft and smooth and may decrease discolorations and fine wrinkles.








    Use a gel or a noncomedogenic (non-acne-forming) cream or lotion, says Dr. Kleinsmith. Add OTC medication. After a week, use medication containing benzoyl peroxide to kill acne-causing bacteria, says Dr. Kleinsmith. If your skin is either sensitive or dry, start with a 5 percent solution of benzoyl peroxide medication and dab it on problem areas after you've washed your face. If your skin is oily, start with a 10 percent solution and spread it over your entire face, except for the eyelids and area within an eyelash length of your eyes.








    Use an oil-free moisturizer. Although many women who have acne will never need a moisturizer, says Dr. Kleinsmith, there is a small group of women who have oily skin only on their forehead and nose, while their cheeks and jaw are actually dry. These women should apply an oil-free, noncomedogenic moisturizer to the dry areas of the face.








    Look for oil-free makeup. If you wear makeup, use only oil-free products that are labeled ';noncomedogenic'; or ';non-acne-forming,'; so that they won't clog your pores, says Dr. Kleinsmith.
    apply a face pack..dey cover d opn pores
    Whoever said not to use those products because it tears your skin is incorrect.





    In fact, using something to exfoliate is necessary to remove dead skin. In nearly all forms of facials, they use an exfoliant.





    The best thing you can do is use something that prevents the bacteria that causes acne. Benzoyl Peroxide. You can get a wash from a dermatologist or even your primary care physician. Or you can get it store bought, but in a much smaller size and probably more expensive. I use the 5 percent Benzoyl Peroxide as a wash in the shower, and a 10 percent cream for spot treatment.





    There really is no way to completely prevent blackheads or white heads. The pores become clogged by your body's natural oils and dirt from typical every day activities. The Benzoyl Peroxide is pretty much the best thing you can do to minimize it.
    u can never get over them, even after u've removed them once....the things u can do are:


    keep away from pollution


    wash ur face with scrub face wash atleast 4-6 times in a day


    never let ur skin become oily


    scrub ur face gently after every week

    That stuff works well.

    Which should i put on my face to clear blackheads and pimples, BENZOYL PEROXIDE or RUBBING ALCOHOL????

    You should probably see a dermatologist first but I wouldn't recommend using alcohol on your face because it may dry your skin too much making your face more irritated than before, although the benzoyl peroxide can dry/irritate your skin also.





    I've tried using rubbing alcohol on my face before and my skin started producing more oil because I was drying it out too much.





    Most of the over the counter products did not work for me but the one that I've had the most success with is Oxy.





    Sometimes you just have to try different products (not all at one time!) but I wouldn't suggest using alcohol on your face.Which should i put on my face to clear blackheads and pimples, BENZOYL PEROXIDE or RUBBING ALCOHOL????
    BP is much less likely to dry out the skin than alcohol. You might need to go on an antibiotic.Which should i put on my face to clear blackheads and pimples, BENZOYL PEROXIDE or RUBBING ALCOHOL????
    Peroxide...


    I asked the pharmacist about this and this is what he said to use...peroxide
    In order to clear your face, you need to use products that contain Salicylic acid. It will unclog and tighten your pores.
    certainly benzoyl perozide because rubbing alcohol is more irritating for your pimples especially it's in the face.
    NO= Put vaseoline intensive loation all over and a extra amount on specific sores twice a day. If you have blackheads squeez it out then put this lotion on . If you wash yourself with soap-n-water a little more you should'nt have this problem. On the other hand even if its natural that you have this problem. So I suggest you buy and use this lotion and after your problem is gone I suggest you use this lotion once a day their after.
    Try using a mixture of one third apple cider vinegar, one third witch hazel, and one third water. It works really well, but stinks at first. to get rid of the smell just put your moisturizer on top of it.

    Try a cleansing face wash, day and night, (i recommend neutrogena) and rinse with warm water to open up your pores and then cold water to close your pores,and i know this sounds disgusting but try and squeeze them, to get the head out
    when you wash ur face u should use really hot water n scrub ur face with some kind of face wash. then rinse with cold water. u shouldnt pop them because it makes ur face red n puts oles inur face. n u could put proxide on them. it helps 4 me!
    You should go to the dermatologist. He can give you special medicine that is much better than the cheap stuff you buy at the drugstore.
    put on night cream and when your showering use a glove that has scrubby stuff and scrub for about 1-2 minutes. It really works
    get biore deep cleansing pads...


    you put them on the area with black heads and then it like suck the dirt off your face and you can see it on the pad..

    To remove a large unsightly blackhead, here is the technique you need.





    First remove the inner ink tube of a pen. Then press the transparent end over the top of the spot or blackhead and twist from left to right. Hey Presto the blackhead pops out. Now place a bag of frozen peas (or anything else cold) over the hole that has been left to make it close up.

    Home made face masks for oily/dry skin & blackheads?

    Hi, i was looking for some info for homemade skin products, i have blackheads on my nose that don't seem to go away with facial scrubs %26amp; what not, my skin is in pretty good condition im just a skin freak and would like to try to make my own masks/ lotions that are not to expensiveHome made face masks for oily/dry skin %26amp; blackheads?
    The only mask I know of for blackheads is geared to people with oily skin.


    It would be a baking soda and salt mask. Fill a container with three fourths backing soda one fourth salt and mix it. Wet your face the message the powder onto your wet face. It can dry out your skin so don't leave it on for anymore than ten minutes, and try not to get it in your eyes.





    That is the only mask I know of specifically geared towards blackheads.





    I can give you some more masks for both oily and dry skin but I figured it would be a waste of time if you were only concerned about blackheads.





    Just don't let any idiots convince you that a blackhead is dirt. Generally it isn't. Most of the time it's oxidized oil that is unable to leave the pore either because it is too thick or the pore is too small. Sooo now that I think of it. Before you do the scrub you may want to open up your pores with a steam. Boil some water, put it in a bowl, and put your face over it with a towel over your head. Obviously think about it and don't go and steam burn your face off :P If you want you can add an essential oil to the water of the steam. Tea Tree oil is best, it has anti fungal and bacterial properties which will help with skin issues in general.





    Addition:


    Clay Masks - Sometimes you can find fairly clean clay at clean beaches (I try to avoid this one and by clay masks from the drugstore. Don't use clay from a craft store... They usually add stuff to those.) - Clay will absorb oils, temporarily tighten skin and shrink pores.





    Egg White - Works like a hydroxy mask. It tightens the skin and helps unclog pores without overly drying out the skin. Wait till the white dries in your face and then peel it off.





    Both peroxide or rubbing alcohol cane make a fantastic alternative for a toner. They both dry the skin out, kill bacteria, minimize pores and tighten skin; rubbing Alcohol more so than peroxide.





    Calamine lotion can be applied to the face and will work like a clay mask.





    Mashed up avocado and glycerin - glycerin can be bought at a pharmacy and should only be used on dry skin. The combination will soften and moisturize the skin.





    Milk soaks - Have anti inflammatory properties. vary good for sunburns, allergic reactions and other skin irritations. Obviously it's no substitute for a doctors prescription.





    Toothpaste - Gets rid of zits. - This ones kind of up in the air for me. I don't get how it would work and have seen evidence from both sides of the fence as to whether or not it works so... no promises with this one.





    Allergy Drops - contain substances that constrict blood vessels to make the blood flow out of the capillaries and reduce redness. My opinion, it works but it's a waste of money.





    Plain yogurt and oatmeal - combined together they make a great hydrating mask.





    Lemon rind and juice (of the lemon) - combine juice and grated rind of one lemon, cover and let stand for 8 HOURS (a little crazy, I know, but this is considered a PEEL which has unique benefits faster masks don't have) remove gently with washcloth. The results are not as dramatic as a chemical peel but, over time, this will reduce the appearance of scars (except icepick and scars under the skin). This peel will also help with acne. May cause some lightening of the skin.





    Sorry but I'm getting kind of bored for the time being lol so... there are many more masks and jazz. If you really want them just e-mail me and I can give you Lemon scrubber, a vegetable mix mask, egg and honey moisturizer and egg and peanut oil. There are sooo many of these things out there it's insane. If you can't find anything reputable online try the library. Old-school but lots of info.





    The best thing you can do is drink lots of water, eat healthy and keep your stress down. Also, for many people, refined white flower and sugar can cause breakouts. Avoid getting hairspray on your face and don't touch your face if you can help it. When it comes to acne or oily skin keep in mind that excessively washing your face can cause your body to make more oil and not really help you at all, plus, it can just irritate the skin. I only mention this because you said you were a skin freak. Do everything in moderation. Too much cleaning can be just as harm full as too little.

    Don't pick it or overwash them. Use products which are suitable for your skin type. You could visit a dermatologist for this matter. And beware of facial centers. . some unexperienced/unqualified ones will leave you with a permanent scar. Most importantly, drink lots of water! =)
