How do you get rid of stupid blackheads?

I have some blackheads on my nose and around it. They're so annoying! What is the best over the counter scrub/wash/lotion to get rid of them? How do you get rid of stupid blackheads?
A great over the counter line is Cetaphil. Also the Aveeno line is great. Dermalogica is an amazing professional brand but is very expensive. I am a licensed Esthetician. Wash your face twice in a row in the morning. The first washing loosens up all the oils and dirt and the second actually washes it away. It is very important to exfoliate about once or twice a week depending on your skin. If you have dry skin don't use anything harsh and only exfoliate once a week. Be sure to finish with a moisturizer even if you feel your skin is oily. Use an oil free moisturizer. As for getting the black heads out, put steam on your face either by using a hot towel or by just being in the shower. Right after you have softened the sebum (oil) with the warmth of the steam or towel, that your two index fingers and get UNDER the black head. Push up (not with your nails) but with your actual fingers. The more often you use steam or hot towels the easier the oil will come out. It should lool like butter coming out of the holes. (Eww, I know!)How do you get rid of stupid blackheads?
You can't really. You can use the pore strips and they do help...but you will still have blackheads. I know you can go to a beautician and have a facial and blackhead extraction..but they have to be good at what they do otherwise you can have gigantic pores as a result. A prescription cream called differin can help by peeling the skin and therefore unplugging the pores. When your hormones even out the blackheads will minimise. They are caused by oil (sebum) blockages in the pore that oxidise(turn black) at the surface of the skin. Just ride them out..they will eventually get nudged out on their own accord.



Its almost impossible to remove blackheads the right way without scarring [you have to apply the right amount of pressure at the correct angle.] Get a facial once a month to have them extracted or use facial strips.



This should help for blackheads. Rub oatmeal paste on face,leave it to dry for 15 minutes and scrub well before washing off with cold water. Check out http://useinfo-blackhead.blogspot.com/ for more useful tips to control blackheads.
