Blackheads ,also known as open comedones ,are follicles that have a wider opening.They are filled with sebum and dead cells and have undergone a chemical reaction resulting in the oxidation of melanin.White heads are narrow openings.SINCE THE AIR CANNOT REACH THE FOLLICLE ,THE MATERIAL IS NOT OXIDISED ,AND REMAINS WHITE.They pop up along the sides of your nose and your chin and make your pretty nose look grubby and spotty.Here's how to get rid of them.

I think something that you're eating is causing them. Are you eating greasy food, drinking alcohol or soda? My guess is that you're eating something processed or something from a deep fryer.

You have to attack acne where it starts, with your diet. For me, diet was the cause and solution. Topical medications fight the symptoms. Start by eliminating trans fats and eating more fruits and vegetables. Once you start cleaning up the inside of your body, by eating properly, the outside of your body (your skin) will be get cleaned up too. I started a website to document my problem and solution.

You might find it helpful to read my story. Just remember to eat an all natural/organic diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. Stay away from processed foods. Use mild, all natural cleansers and don't pick at your face. Get lots of sleep and enough water for your body weight. Remember, clean body = clean skin. While you're waiting for your skin to clear, remind yourself that acne is a challenge that you will overcome soon. Once you're rid of it, tell all your friends how you did it. That's what I'm doing. God Bless.

Answer 4

White heads are cause by a build up of sebum under the skin. Any face wash w/ Benzoyl peroxide will help.

Answer 5

oil, dirt and dead skin

Don't pop em'....! You get rid of them by cleaning your face. Either soap w/ exfoliates in it, or a mask that you can peel away, dead skin on your face could be 2-3 layers deep, so yeah you need that healthy skin to show.

You don't have acne, so you won't need medications or whatever

Answer 6

Your eye area is really sensitive as you know. You should see a dermatologist about that one. Those may not be pimples.
