it's a scab. when you push too hard on delicate face skin, it rubs off a tiny layer of it. there's really nothing to do but wait for it to fall off. you can always wash your face two times everyday (more than that and it irritates your skin) and cover it with a concealer that matches your skin color. there are also great ones from clinique that have benzoyl peroxide to get rid of acne while covering up your blemishes

You're never, ever, supposed to try an pop a zit/blackhead/whatever. It makes a tiny flare-up turn into something else that could leave a scar. As for right now, avoid wearing make-up over it. DONT POP IT. Try zit creams, for a couple days. Try to avoid touching it as much as possible as well. Hopefully it will go away. It MAY leave a scar as well. For now on, be kinder to your pores.

Next time, don't try to pop a blackhead, because it really won't work. Next time use Biore pore strips or just exfoliate with milk/brownsugar. I would put a spot of concealer on it, and brush your nose with some powder. I hope it helps you out!

i would say soak the area in warm water, use a washcloth or take a warm shower, for 15 minutes, then take your fingertips and pess down gently on each side of the area,, what you may be seeing is more of the blackhead that has come to the surface

Put an ice cube over it for a little while. It will bring down the swelling.

You could have broken a blood vessel. If that is the case, it will heal eventually. Just cover it with make-up for now.

Use hydrogen peroxide on the bump and then use Preparation H to shrink it down.
