You can find blackheads on your nose, chin or forehead. Removing a blackhead is a difficult task and its frustrating.Given below are a few tips to remove blackheads:·
Do not use harsh soaps or lotions, which could the face oily.
Use cleansers and try to keep the skin less oily.
Try to keep the dead cells away from the skin, by cleaning your face.
Do not squeeze the blackheads. Too much squeezing could damage the skin and make the pores large.
Applying warm water on the face and gently putting pressure with a little cotton could clear the clogs.
You can use “blackhead strips” which are available in the markets. These strips only remove the upper portion on the blackheads and not its root.

The device is called a comdone extractor. Someone previously said The Body Shop has 'em. Sally beauty supply does too. Wash your face, exfoliate, riinse, and either use the CE right out of the shower or in it if you have a fog free mirror or fold up a hand towel & run hot water into it & then apply that over your face like int eh old gangster movies in the barber shop. This is like a ministeam treatment. THEN you nose is ready for the CE because your pores will be open. It will be tempting to use the CE right out of the box. Don't. Your skin needs to be prepared to most effectively remove the sebacious oils that have hardened to creat "blackheads."
In addition, you may want to try the Biore strips for use when you don't have time for the longer ritual.

Two remedies, POP EM as already suggested, a red mark is no better than a great big pimple. After popping treat with a piece of raw lemon or lime. Try not to wash with soap, use instead clean boiled water with half of lemon squeezed into. wait to water has cooled of course.
Other remedy buy some washing soda and take a crystal wet it and apply to spot, keep doing it every day. This remedy also good for bee stings and bites

Get a black marker, draw concentric circles on the bathroom mirror. The first circle about 12 inches in diameter, the next abt 8 inches, then 4 inches and then a solid dot.
Next, press the blackhead tightly between your index finger and your thumb.
You get 50 points for a bulls eye and 10 points anywhere else.
Make sure you clean up the mess :-)

Use blackhead remover, biore nose strips, regularly exfoliate your skin and moisturise it properly.
wash day and night, everyday
exfoliate 2 to 3 times a day
use nose strips once or twice a day?

There are tools ya can get but they aren't that great! If you went for a facial for extraction, they would literally squeeze them but ya have to pull the skin out and then go under if ya no what I mean to get the whole lot of it. They use gloves and all, ya can do it yourself but a facial would be more effective!!!

There is a tool you can use to remove them. I don't know how effective it is. Steaming is also apparently effective. And if you're really desperate try an internal permanent prevention.

Go and ask a pharmacist about a little tool you can buy to lift the stuff out - it's what you should do with them.
