I have them all over my nose, and I have no clue what to do with them. I wash my face every night, as well as mornings (if I have time). I use Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Scrub, and although it works sometimes, it isn't completely efficient and reliable. Help!!!

Blackheads and whiteheads are a pain. But don't be discouraged. Even if your pores are larger, they can return to normal size and your skin can get clearer. Here are some remedies that have worked for me.
Home remedy for blackheads
Step 1: Get a small bowl
Step 2: Find some baking soda
Step 3: Pour ½ cup of baking soda in a bowl, mix it with crushed oatmeal, 1 tablespoon of water, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of olive oil
Step 4: Massage this gently over all skin that has blackheads. Scrub for 30-60 seconds.
This mixture works particularly well for blackheads on your nose. But, if you don't like oatmeal, or are allergic, try substituting apricot kernels. You can find them at your local health food store.
The other best option is to try an all natural, deep penetrating scrub. The best that I have discovered through personal use is No More Shame Scrub. It works extremely fast because it uses organic sugar cane and essential oils as its base. This exfoliates and smoothes the skin wonderfully and removes blackheads and whiteheads by controlling oil secretion and killing bacteria. Depending on how many blackheads or whiteheads you have, you can see significant results within 3 days to a week. It is found at wwwdiscoverb4acom.

've suffered with acne for awhile now, however, I think treating acne takes time. I got rid of of acne by drinking lots of water and eating very healthy, which was the best remedy by far. Also, washing my face twice daily. ,However, using natural cleansers made my face feel, look healthier, and clearer. Though, having a workout plan also takes a big impact on your skin, ALSO, NEVER TOUCH OR PICK AT YOUR FACE. But, if you absolutely have to, get two q-tips and squeeze the puss out gently. Then, put an ice cube on it so the redness will go away. Also, changing your pillowcases every other night helps too. I hope I helped. :)

The cheapest thing you can do (it's completely free!) is to boil a kettle and pour the boilng water into a large bowl. When the water is still hot but the steam is cool, put a tea towel over your head and hold your head over the steam - cleans out your pores brilliantly!
NB Be careful not to scald yourself - make sure the steam is cool!

you can get pore strips that you moisten, put on the affected area, leave for a few mins, then peel off taing the blackheads with it. not sure what exactly they are called, as managed to stop getting them now & not bought them for a while, but most good chemists should know if you ask for them

I'll bet just about anything sticky enough will have a similar effect as the name brand pore strips. I sometimes sleep wearing one of those Breathe Right springy nostril strips, and have noticed that they pull them as well.
LeeCee's facialist literally nauseated me. I had no idea. I thought pedicurists had it bad.

Try Biore pore perfect strips, at home...they really do pull them out. For best results, treat yourself to a deep cleansing facial and have the facialist do extractions (they use a little tool or their fingers to get them out).
....lol, it's gross, I know.
