neutrogena product??

Question

i saw this neutorgena thing and it says it works faster than proactiv... but my main problem is blackheads, the neutrogena package comes like how a proactiv package would and im wondering will it eliminate blackheads?? my mom says i should pop my blackheads cause the creams only prevent you from getting blackheads is that true or does the cream itself reduce it?? does anyone know a quicker product or way i can eliminate blackheads?

Answer 1

Do not "pop" or force black heads out - it stretches the pores.

The best thing to do is to prevent them by using an exfoliating product (e.g. a face scrub) & a product w/ either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.

I like Aveeno Positively Radiant Cleansing Pads for my sensitive, combination skin. The pads have a smooth side & a rough side. My favorite scrub is Avon's Microdermabrasion Scrub. It really takes off dead skin & rinses off easily. A little goes a long way.

Give the Neutrogena kit a try. If it doesn't help, see your doctor or a dermatologist. Acne can lead to scarring so it's important to keep it under control.

Another thing that will help eliminate blackheads is a steam facial. The steam will open your pores gently and naturally. Here's how to do it safely & effectively: http://www.ehow.com/how_2564_give-yourself-facial.html

Some good clay masks to use are:

1) Plain Milk of Magnesia applied in a thin layer.

2) Beauty w/o Cruelty clay mask

3) Origins charcoal mask

Answer 2

use clearisil face pads, but first pop all of your blackheads. don't touch your face too much because it makes it greasy and that is the worst thing

Answer 3

ur mom's right. Pop them, it works for me!
