they form when you do not wash often enough - like 2 times a day at least

This is going to sound really stupid, but hear me out:
Elmer's Glue. On your face. Seriously.
Spread a thin layer of glue on your face, and let it dry. It'll act just like the Biore strips (except on your whole face, and cheaper). After it's dry, just peel it off. Make sure you wash your face after you're done to pull out any residue.
My cosmetologist recommended this, and it works great for me.

You need to use them on a weekly basis. Black heads come from build up of dirt and natural skin waxes stuck in your pores. Use a blackhead scrub daily.

first scrub your face with baking soda and water...very gently in circular motions. after cleanse with mild cleanser like cetaphyl. Then tone with witch hazle...rinse and make sure you moisturize with a good moisurizer that doesn't have polyben polymers....aka wax in it...nothing with poly or mineral oil, petrol etc should ever be used on your face....check your foundation to make sure it doesn't have them....they can be the culperate in most cases of black head build up. Also, Revlon has a long metal implement that helps extract the buggers...about $12 but worth every penny...just remember not to share it and if you must pls wash it well with soapy water and then soak it in alcohol. Good luck!

they never worked for me.. i have combination skin.. so my nose is extreemly oily... ur derm can prescribe you benzoyl peroxide 2 and a half percent... or u can try to use loreal pure zone.. it has 3 steps and it really minimized my blackheads on my nose.. i've tried so many other things to get rid of the blackheads but so far that has worked best lol

omg haha i use those the work you just have to use them consistanly and after you use it find a product that seals your pores so you cant get dirt in there cause when you use the biore strips they open your pores and clean them but you need them sealed directly after you take them off so try a product that has a rubbing alcohol base in it. hope that helps :)

try using a Mint Julep facial masque weekly (this is what they use in salons), as it dries it will pull the impurities out of the skin and shrink the pores so more impurities can't get in. also use witch hazel (an astringent) daily too keep the pores small.

go sit in a sauna for twenty minute then wash your face. Another trick i learned for clear skin while modeling was to eat a bowel of cool whip with mixed berries or blueberries! its tastey and it gives you soft skin blueberries have alot of vitamin e&a in them which is what gives you clear skin!

Treat them the same way you would a pimple, pinch them and the ick will come out and they will go away.
