I've tried scrubbing, cleansing, exfoliating, facials, steaming... even all together. But the blackheads on my nose just won't go away!

1] quit wearing any skin makeup for a while. Apply acne cream or gel to any spots.
2] buy all makeup that is non comedogenic [ doesn't clog pores/cause zits ]
3] buy facewash, toner, sunscreen, and moisturizer for YOUR skin type [ also non comedogenic ]. Wash, tone, and sunscreen in AM; wash, tone, and moisturize in pm
4] try Biore pore strips after your shower [ pores are open ] - they work really well on my husband. Then use toner, and let it dry while you brush your teeth or something.
Then apply moisturizer to DRY areas of your face.
Repeat this once a week until pores are clear.
5] exfoliate with Aapri or St Ives apricot scrub - use small amount to gently scrub face with finger pads - it will remove top layers of dead skin, and sebum that clogs pores.
Repeat two or three times a week.
6] avoid fried, fast, and junk food - even diet junk food
7] drink 1/2 gallon of water a day
8] take a daily vitamin with minerals every day

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

If you want to tear all the skin off your nose, sure use the Biore Pore strips. Some people are born with large pores in their nose, and no matter how much you squeeze, poke and push them, they won’t go away. If you're looking for a short term fix, you can get a really fine sewing needle and sort of, scratch them out, but that can be kind of painful and make your nose turn red. If anyone asks you about them, just say, they're specially coloured freckles (:

Cleanse your face with unboiled milk, gently rub a coarse cloth dipped in milk to remove the blackheads. Steam your face with herbs like lavender, lemon peel and mint leaves added to the water and let the skin soak up its goodness.

Try steaming to open the pores and then gently squeeze the blackheads out. More home remedies posted at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/blackheads.html

Once they are there,they are there.You can take them out but they will come back all the time. YOu can only prevent other parts of your face from getting blackheads but the ones that are there will always be back. Scrub your skin once or twice a week and use a deep cleanseing mask once a week to throughly cleanse your face.
