I think I saw some of the above recipes in the "How to make guacamole" question.
Blackheads are also called "open comedones", and are the dilated opening of the follicular unit. Nothing removes the follicular unit completely, but there are things you can do to decrease their size and prominence.
1) Benzoyl peroxide is considered "comedolytic", which means it helps to free up the plugged pores.
2) Retin-A, Retinol containing products help decrease the production of sebum (the contents of the blackhead)
3) Facials, microdermabrasion, and biore strips help to free up the pores as well, and I do believe that together with benzoyl peroxide and retinol products this helps (and also makes the skin feel good).
I have never tried some of the other things above, but I am craving some tortilla chips and guacamole now.

Yes. I do have a good suggestion which you would definitely see and feel the effect after using this scrub. Try miho medicated bath salt (550g) (shampoo size bottle) (very fine texture) which can act as a body scrub and also face scrub. Spread a layer of miho cleansing milk and dab a reasonable amount of the medicated bath salt onto your face and neck area where you can find the blackheads or do a normal face scrub.
Afterwhich rinse it off and you will see your face has brighten and blackheads have cleared. Only this miho medicated bath salt can be used per the steps I have indicated.
Exclusive product sold online. The products worked well when you use as a set. You can email me bellrin8880@hotmail.com

Biore pore strips work great, but sometimes the blackhead is so deep they will not extract them! Try the strips first, get rid of the superficial ones first. The blackheads that are more deeply rooted can be extracted by a Dermatologist.

Biore strips do not work for everyone, me in particular. I would suggest Neutrogena daily face wash, daily (obviously) and Neutrogena deep cleansing scrub three times a week. Don't dry your face out by using it daily. Mask are nice and so are facials, but if you are looking for clear, fresh, blackhead free skin that looks great . . . this is an inexpensive and productive route to take. Good luck!

Wash your face with a gentle water-soluble cleanser. Apply a clay mask that does not contain ingredients such as mint or peppermint. It will absorb excess oil from the skin surface. If you have dry skin, use oil-absorbing papers to clean the face, you can find these at walgreens, or target. Apply exfoliant or a scrub that will help remove dead skin from your face, a good scrub that I use is burt's bee face scrub! Take hot steam on your face to soften the blackheads for easy removal.

Scrub your face GENTLY with plain white sugar mixed with a little water. It works better after you hold your face over a bowl of super hot water and steam your pores open. I do this all the time. It gets rid of blackheads and makes your skin glow.
