how 2 remove blackheads!!!!
Try not to touch your face...it's a hard habit to break but dirt, oil, and germs will get into your face and block your pores.
A common myth is that if you have oily skin, you should not moisturise it. This is wrong. If you have oily skin, you need to moisturize it, because if you do not, your skin will produce more oil to compensate. Try a good oil-free moisturizer, or Enzymion (from Lush). This is fast-acting and the fruit enzymes in it break down oil on the skin's surface- no more shiny noses!
Biore and Clean & Clear are good products. Try Clean & Clear Black head scrub and Biore nose strips.
When you use a nose strip wet your nose with a clean face cloth and then dry your hands.
After that open the packet that the nose strip is in, and rip the little tabs for a better fit on your nose.
Put the sticky side on your nose and wait for around 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes (I suggest that timing) the nose strip should be hard paper mache. Remove it.
tips:
Only use the strips once a week.I suggest 10-minute timing because if you keep it on for too long the sticky stuff sticks to your nose and your blackheads don't come off with it.
Do not pick at them or probe with needles, this only invites irritation and infection. Only touch blackheads with clean hands, if at all.

Beauty supply stores sell little tools called comedo extractors (comedo is the medical name for a blackhead) that you can use. Basically, they are little tools with a sort of spoon shaped depression at the end and with a hole in the middle. You steam your face to open the pores, and then you use this little tool. It's sort of like picking at them, but the difference is the pressure is applied equally from all sides, and the stuff comes out the hole in the center. That keeps it from damaging the skin around the area. There is another kind that is slightly different in design, and looks like a little tapered loop, but it is used the same way.
To keep your face from getting them in the first place, use the proper cleanser, as well as a topical solution of some sort. Salicylic acid is the main ingredient in most acne face cleansers, and it helps keep your face nice and clean. It can take a while when you first start using it, but the effects are cumulative, and if you have a lot of blackheads, you will notice a difference in a week or two. I really recommend you use a cleanser containing it, and then also use an exfoliating scrub with Salicylic acid in it several times a week. One of the things it does when you wash with it is dry your skin out, so the scrub helps remove that built up dead skin.
Topical applications are creams or gels or even patches that are applied right to the area. My favorite is some stuff I get from a beauty supply store. It is Salicylic acid and Tea Tree Oil, and it is a liquid, and there's a little rollerball appplicator. I have also used Clearasil sticks that have basically the same thing in them, but which have a different type of applicator. That stuff works great for me now, but when I was in high school, I needed a bit more, so I just got Clearasil cream, and put it on my problem areas at night.
I wash my face twice a day, but as I am getting older, I don't always use a Salicylic acid wash. I use another kind of acid which is better for older skin. I do use my little stick every night though, on my problem areas. That twice a day stuff works well for me, but I know that some people have a lot more oil production, and need help during the middle of the day, as well. I used to work with a woman who has had really bad skin problems her whole life, but you would never guess it from looking at her. One time I went into the ladies room at lunchtime, and she was in doing her midday ritual. She washes the makeup off her T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), which is her trouble spot, and then just uses a Clearasil pad on the area. She waits a few minutes, then just puts powder back on the cleaned off areas. She doesn't look any different afterwards, but she told me it's absolutely necessary for her to get that middle-of-the-day cleaning in, or she has terrible breakouts.
Hope that helps!

1. You can try to go for a facial wash. Hot steam will be directed to your face to let the pores open up. Then the beautician will squeeze the pores. Then after, there will be a cold mask treatment to close up the pores.
2. D-I-Y method. Use facial scrubs, two to three times a week. It will be useful if you had little amount of pores that is gotten recently.
3. I heard that using the water melon's white portion, the part where after you have eaten the flesh, to scrub your face. ;]

There's a little tool to kind of press them out. Or you can probably find some kind of face cream.

use clean and clear for black heads and pimples. never pop them as they will leave marks and scars all over your face. always keep it oil free and dont touch your face much after you cleans it otherwise youll leave lots of oil on your face.
