How do you get rid of whiteheads and blackheads?

Removal strips





Blackhead removal strips are readily available at all major departmental stores. All you need to do is to wet the strip, place the strip on your nose, which is where blackheads are very likely to form, leave it on till it dries completely, and peel it off.





Exfoliate





Make sure the blackheads don鈥檛 reappear by exfoliate your skin with a face scrub, to get rid of dead skin so they do not block pores. Use it on your nose, or wherever you have blackheads. Scrub the area gently. Do not be too harsh as you may cause further damage.





While you need exfoliate your face only twice a week, many women have reported that their blackheads on their nose have totally disappeared after they started using a face scrub on their nose on a daily basis.

Do you like to pop pimples, (yours or other ppls) whiteheads, zits, blackheads?

Which of these is ur favorite?Do you like to pop pimples, (yours or other ppls) whiteheads, zits, blackheads?
noo. gross!Do you like to pop pimples, (yours or other ppls) whiteheads, zits, blackheads?
yep. its addicting. hahaha mine! not blackheads, to much scarring. white heads all the time. and just zits in general. occasionally i will pop a zit on my brothers nose (i dont want him leaving the house like that if people know we are related!)you dont really get scars from whiteheads and it faster then letting it heal. it doesnt hurt much either. i think it hurts less than having a sore spot for a longer time.
i like whiteheads th most then zits then blackheads. i like to on myself because i have long nails and i usually hurt people when i pop theirs.but yeah i think its fun.
its pretty disgusting to pop other peoples.





really bad whiteheads i would pop even though its pretty gross. but only on myself. and not with nails. eeeeuuugh.
Lmaooo.

sometimes but not on other people i like blackheads :)
No, it causes scarring that lasts for the rest of your life.
Eww. None. I leave all the work to Pro Active. Lolll.

eww pimples are gross =[
  • skin care
  • Do blackheads and whiteheads need to be squeezed or will they come out on there own?

    If blackheads look ready to pop out, you could try removing them gently by using a blackhead extractor. This is a neat little instrument with a hole at one end, available from chemists. Pressure around the blackhead helps it to pop out through the hole. Also, Pore cleanser strips are highly recommended for the treatment/removal of blackheads. Using them once per week will leave your pores cleaner and smaller.





    Otherwise use your fingers. Steam your face first to soften both the skin and the material blocking the pores. Then wrap the fingers in tissues and gently roll against either side of the blackhead. If it won't budge easily, leave well alone, as too much pressure will bruise and break the skin, making your face red and blotchy for days to come, and possibly leaving tiny broken veins. Finish by applying a medicated cream to the empty pore.





    Only ever squeeze a spot with a definite head that looks about to burst - pressure on an unready infected spot spreads bacteria below the skin's surface, infecting the surrounding tissue. Bad spots need a doctor's advice, and he may suggest antibiotic or even hormone therapy.





    Whiteheads are commonly removed using an extractor. Boil water in a pot and let it to steam. Steam your face in this water for about 6-8 minutes. Cover your head with a towel while you are steaming. Steaming the face allows all the pores to open up. Look into the mirror and place the extractor loop right on the whitehead to be removed and gently press; this will remove the whitehead completely. Apply either a small amount of alcohol or benzoyl peroxide on the treated area. This will keep bacteria away from the open pores.











    Many dermatologists opine that it may be better not to use extractors to remove whiteheads. Use of exfoliators can help in dealing with whiteheads. Use of gentle exfoliating scrubs or gentle peels may instead help in removing surplus surface debris on the skin, thereby tackling formation of whiteheads. Washing the face with warm water a couple of times a day might help dislodge the whiteheads. Alternatively you can place a towel dipped in warm water and squeezed dry on the face.

    DO NOT SQUEEZE THEM!!! iiF YOU DO, WiiLL JUST MAKE BLACK SPOTS ON YOUR FACE!!! iiTS REALLY BAD TO SQUEEZE THEM SO DONT!! TRUST ME, ii HAD ONE ON MY NOSE THE OTHER DAY AND ii DiiDN'T KNOW MY OWN STRENGTH AND ii ACCiiDENTLY POPPED iiT OUT....ii NOW HAVE A BLACK SPOT ON THAT PART OF MY FREAKiiN NOSE!!! SO DON'T SQUEEZE iiT...ii'M TELLiiNG YOU HUN!!!
    BLACKHEADS AND WHITEHEADS ARE EXACTLY THE SAME THINGS, PORES BLOCKED BY THE OIL IN THE SKIN. WHITEHEADS TURN BLACK WHEN THE ACID IN THEM MIX WITH THE AIR. THE BEST TIME TO SQUEEZE THEM IS AFTER A SHOWER AS THE STEAM OPENS UP THE PORES AND THEY COME OUT EASIER.


    NEVER SQUEEZE WITH OUT WASHING YOUR HANDS AS U CAN INFECT THEM. IF U FIND THAT THE BLACKHEAD SO NOT COMING OUT, LEAVE IT UNTIL YOUR NEXT SHOWER AND TRY AGAIN. SQUEEZING TOO HARD COULD DAMAGE THE SKIN AND THE TINY VAINS UNDER THE SKIN.

    What is a good treatment for oily skin, i have also pimples and whiteheads?

    With oily skin you have to be careful not to over wash it as you can end up drying it out causing it to secrete more oil to compensate. Avoid soaps as they dry the skin and cause a backlash of oil. Also avoid washing with hot water as this increases oil production. Try using a soap free wash once a day for your body and twice a day for your face. If you use a moisturiser, make sure it's oil free.





    Oily skin can be hormone related. If you are still in your teens/early 20s then hopefully you will grow out of it. You could try some kind of contraceptive pill if you're female. Perhaps ask your doctor.





    Products with salicylic acid in are good for spots.What is a good treatment for oily skin, i have also pimples and whiteheads?
    i think good old time ivory soap


    wash at least 2 times aday


    and dont get the one with moisturizer in itWhat is a good treatment for oily skin, i have also pimples and whiteheads?
    U will have to use alcohol base cleanser to remove excess oil from ur face better than just soap.

    What home products get rid of whiteheads?

    Steaming the face will soften up the skin, removing dirt and oil. Use a gentle facial scrub to remove the loosened gunk. Then, soak a cotton pad in hydrogen peroxide and swipe it around your face. Doing this twice a day will really help, but be careful because the HP can really dry out your face, so slap on a light moisturizer ~30 minutes after the hydrogen peroxide.


    Chamomile tea will help to smooth out your skin. Either in a toner, or just cool a cup of brewed tea, and store it in the fridge.What home products get rid of whiteheads?
    steaming with ordinary water, or water+iodine; u can also use radish juice on the blackheads

    Getting rid of facial whiteheads?

    How can I get rid of these stubborn facial whiteheads?I have tried to squeeze them out but that does not help.That makes the area Im squeezing swell up and hurt.Any useful suggestions would be great,thanks!Getting rid of facial whiteheads?
    Acne is a bacteria that needs to be killed. Witch Hazel is also works great.. it is a little smelly, but you can use a cotton ball or wash cloth. It will tke away the oiliness. `Tea Tree Oil will kill out the bacteria or weaken it enough not to bother you. Apply it to the effected areas with a q-tip or cotton ball after you have washed.





    You should get a good multivitamin(highly suggest) with vitamin a,c,e,d and zinc.. this should help tons! Eating carrots also helps.. there is beta-carotene (Vitamin A) in them which helps prevent acne and repair the skin. Take zinc, zinc is a antibacterial agent. Make sure to drink plenty of water and get good rest at night.





    Azelaic Acid is a great natural acid that reduces the growth of bacteria, restores the skins cells and reduces inflammation. Try using a topical with Azelaic Acid in it.. it is safe.





    Also, change/wash your pillow case and sheets every other day.





    There are ways to put moisture back into your skin and heal it, such as: drinking lots of water, making sure you are eating enough fat/omega-3 oils. Lotions with mineral oil can dry out the skin, use one with out it! Emu Oil ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_oil ) contains vitamin A and E, Sapogens ( makes skin softer), and Oleic acid (a skin cell regenerator, anti-wrinkel agent) - walgreens sells emu oil.. i would think walmart would as well.Getting rid of facial whiteheads?
    At Walgreen's I bought this tool it is metal has two little round ends on it I call it my pimple popper it is for black heads and white heads.





    When you squeeze them out with your fingers your breaking the blood vessels in the normal skin around and may accidental force the bacteria back into the skin.





    Before popping pimples wash your face use warm water it softens the skin and makes it easier to release the bacteria.





    you should be exfoliating your skin about once a week for normal for sensitive about once every other week and sometimes even with normal skin you might need to do it up to three times a week. Never use soap because some whiteheads are just soap buildup.





    Get a good cleanser with salcilic acid in it.

    Creams that really work to get rid of whiteheads?

    they are on my nose and in between my eyes and they wont ever go awayCreams that really work to get rid of whiteheads?
    Benzoyl Peroxide,dabbed on a Q-tip,pat on spot. Try a blackhead removing scrub,b/c they'll get out white heads too. Neautrogenas' black head scrub,Clean%26amp;Clears' continuous blackhead control. Or St.Ives blackhead apricot scrub. Also Buy a facial scrubbing pads,design for washing face,and getting into the pores deep. Look in the cosmetic,facial care aisle,or accessories/makeup,skin care, at any Walmart,CVS,WAlgreens,etc.Creams that really work to get rid of whiteheads?
    Try looking in Walmart for some black head cream and istringent and that should help!
    I would suggest doing a deep pore mask once a week. Do you use a scrub? I would suggest that as well.

    Or, you might could even use OraJel to deaden the area. I have a couple of those things and they are very painful to try to get out. Just about the only thing you can do is pick them out with a sterile needle.

    try wearing gloves. It sounds wierd, but often whitehead patterns will form where you touch your face. Do you rest your head in your chin a lot? It will help to just keep the area really clean. Not touching is a good first step, but if that doesn't do the trick, use witch hazel (like 97 cents a bottle) to clean the area a couple times a day. Good luck

    Whiteheads...what causes them and how do you get rid of them?

    I have a few around my eyes to include my eye lids so squeezing them is not an option. How do I get rid of them and keep them from coming back?Whiteheads...what causes them and how do you get rid of them?
    read tips on treating acne, skincare and home remedies on this siteWhiteheads...what causes them and how do you get rid of them?
    try using a facial deep cleanings fash wash. are you sure that they are whiteheads or are they dermial cysts. I get them under my eyes in the soft skin and a dermotolgist can remove them.
    This means your eyelids are extra greasy, around that area, which is normal... I would just begin to start washing your face with good old fashioned 'SOAP' and especially around your eyes, with them shut really good, to take care not to get soap in your eyes, and wash really good with warm water everyday.. And believe it or not, soap dries out the skin, so your eyes, should be back to normal before long! You'll see! I swear by this, and I have never used anything else for my face in my whole 44 years in my entire life!! I even tell my two teens to wash their faces, everyday before they use their ';Stridex-Pads'; and they have blemishes, but not near as bad, as they did, before I got on them about washing their faces, and using the stridex-pads.. good luck to you hun! smile, they'll be going away soon enough, you'll see!!! Dont listen to all of these people who will tell you this product works, and that, beccause they dont!! My sister's tried them all, only to find out that good old fashioned soap , is the only thing that helps her, now!! So forget what they all say!!! SOAP, everyday, tho!!! Smile!!!
    A whitehead (closed comedone) is a small, white lump in the skin where oil and skin cells clog and close a hair follicle (pore). Whitehead (closed comedone).


    go to answers.com and type the word Whiteheads and you will find out more information on the subject
    They may appear due to the cosmetics used on eye area ,such as makeup removers, which can increase the oiliness of the eye skin. You should keep such things away from your whiteheads. Also, you can make stream treatment on your eyes. i hope it will help.
    Depends, do you have oily or dry skin? If your skin is oily - to start with you can take a warm wash cloth on them to soften them so you can pop them gently to not break your skin and then wash with like a good soap like dial. Put on a hypoallergenic face lotion. Not sure about dry skin.

    How do you get rid of whiteheads?

    Any overnight solutions to help clear them up or at least reduce their appearance? ThanksHow do you get rid of whiteheads?
    soap and watter is the best remedy. A good rough washcloth helps as well.How do you get rid of whiteheads?
    I use salicylic acid %26amp; a scrub. Sometimes I squeeze them, but usually after I apply salicylic acid, the whitehead comes out more easily.
    Go with the first answer and stay with it!! But use water not watter! Good Luck !! ~:()+
    Use a 2% beta hydroxy solution and it will bring them to the surface and you can pick them out with a needle.
    actually, there is no one cure for getting rid of whiteheads permanently. you just need to learn how to live with it, while maintaining a clean and healthy face. soap and water are the basic. next you need to exfoliate. but you need to avoid the sun when using exfoliating/ chemical peels such as aha/bha or retinol based products. then when using retinol based products, you might want to use a whitening product, as it tends to discolor skin through time.
    Try to dry them out. Overnight remedy...put a dab of toothpaste on the spot.
    I recently purchased a product called Magic Mirror. I bought it at Cato's. It is a black/white head remover. It has wires on both ends, one for black heads %26amp; one for white heads. I know it sounds gross, but with a little pressure it pops those suckers right out. I don't have many clogged pores anymore. Seriously-It is AWESOME!!!





    It only costs @ $ 15.00. It also comes with a mirror that magnifies 10X, a heated eyelash curler %26amp; a cute pink bag to keep it in.





    It's worth checking into.

    I use this system off of TV called Murad it runs around 30.00 for their trial kit but I myself have noticed a difference in using it. I myself have used Proactiv with no luck I just got more breakouts and aggravation of paying too much for junk. Try it I am sure you'll like it too!





    Also Avon has that white head/ black head removal tool too! For a lot less I paid 2.00 for mine and yes it works too!

    How do you get rid of those stupid whiteheads?

    They are so annoying...How do you get rid of those stupid whiteheads?
    There is a dilemma. If you pop it, then in the medical sense, it is supposed to make things worse by pushing the oils/dirt into the skin further....





    From the nonscientific view, I also just give em' hell and pop them. But, I never have had them bad, and not many. So if you had alot, then I would think doing that could cause scaring in the future.





    You best bet would be prevention. Buy face cleanser and use it morning and night, and look into 10% benzode peroxide, that helps with acne problems.





    Hope that helps.How do you get rid of those stupid whiteheads?
    put toothpaste on it. that icy feeling will make it smaller - to nothing.
    squeeze your nose til pus comes out
    Always clean your face.
    Squeezing and popping will actually do nothing except widen the pore, making it easier to clog back up. Also, the pus is bacteria, and when it is squeezed out, it spreads to other pores. Good exfoliation will keep them to a minimum. Spa facials also help because there is a correct way to remove whiteheads to keep them from returning. Spa professionals will know how to do this with special tools.
    take a hot cloth and put it over your white heads so that they are easier to squeeze out--- and it won't scar. after that, use a scrub and scrub that area....
    lemon
    whiteheads strip from Walmart any brand will do the trick.
    Beat the battle before it has begun friend, try some products that treat misbehaving skin such as the products seen in the link that I have included as a source. Type in the search engine ';misbehaving';--there should be several products that appear.
    pop 'em.





    And wash your... wherever they pop up. every day.
    time, they heal the fastest and cleanest if they are left untouched. they won't scar that way either. They also are less likely to spread.
    just pop them!!


    thinking of them gives me the chills already loL!
    take fruit facial
    buy some Witch Hazel from the grocery store, cvs, wal mart, etc.





    put a little bit on a cotton ball and cleanse the area with it.





    it works really good, honestly.

    act neeeWhat is a good facial cleanser for killing whiteheads?
    Tried and True method from my dermatologist:


    Witch Hazel from your local grocery-Wipe with a cotton ball over areas daily, at least twice a day. The best time to do this if you want faster results is right after your shower, because the steam from your shower opens up your pores.
    Proactive, and Netrogena daily facial cleanser!!! Or St. Ives appricote scrub
    You might want to try ARbonne's ';Intelligence'; self balancing skin care products. My daughter, who's 21, was using proactive, but it didn't totally clear up her skin and dried out her face. I gave her a sample of ';Intelligence'; and it cleared her up in about 3 days! She said she loves how her face feels too. I have a sample packet I could send you. It comes with: Wash, Balancer, Thermal Mask, Eye Creme, and Moisturizer.

    Try getting a facial to clean out the impurities in your skin. Also, I've used Proactiv and Clean and Clear with Microbeads. Both have really worked for me but even when using those products I've noticed that if I don't wash my face at night I still sometimes get small whiteheads. If you still don't have any luck with these products or suggestions I would recommend seeing a dermatologist.

    No cleanser will ever get rid of whiteheads. You need a 1% beta salicylic acid lotion.How do I get rid of whiteheads that are so stubborn they won't seem to go away with any cleansers?
    THIS IS MY LONG ANSWER FOR ALL OILY SKIN/ACNE PROBS...TRYING TO COVER ALL I KNOW ABOUT ACNE/SPOT PROBLEMS FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE...SO HOPEFULLY THERE'LL BE SOMETHING HERE TO HELP!!! SOME MIGHT NOT BE RELEVANT DEPENDING ON YOUR SEX BUT I HOPE SOMETHING'LL BE HERE FOR YOU!





    I'm 35 and I still get spots/pimple clusters from time to time and even when they go, they leave reddish marks for ages and my skin looks blotchy.





    I use clean and clear or neutrogena clear skin - both contain salicylic acid which prevents breakouts and gradually evens the skin tone out too. And crazy as it sounds - the toothpaste things works! Put on a blob at night and put a bit of tissue over it so it doesn't make a mess. I dunno how it works but it does!





    Any female with spots I'd recommend trying dianette or yasmin contraceptive pills because if it's hormonal, that can sort out the kind of hormonal pimples you might get monthly!





    Be careful what products you use in your hair if it's long - certain conditioners have causes me to break out at times.





    Also I'd recommend taking a 100% multi vitamin/mineral complex and Omega 369 oils every day because that ensures you're getting the right nutrition and also, the omega oils improve blood flow.





    It's an 'old wives tale' type rememdy - but a spoonful of cider vinegar and honey in hot water 3 times a day is meant to help EVERYTHING. It tastes nice too...kinda like honey and lemon X





    Also...keep your hydration right by drinking plenty of water, avoiding caffeine and alcohol and too much salt!





    Another suggestion is the scrub you can get called 'resurface' or something like that - made by L'oreal. You only use it a couple of times a week (and use at night because it makes your face red!). It really works not just with the colouring but also the texture - smoothes it back out. It comes with it's own moisturiser which I don't use but I use the scrub at night a couple of times a week and put bio oil on which it supposed to help clear scarring and even skin tone.





    Don't use harsh scrubs and peroxide products daily like some people do; that can dry your skin and make produce MORE oil...just exaccerbating the problem.





    And my final suggestion is 'sheer cover' mineral foundation. You see it on infomercials a lot...tacky I know! But it really works. You can buy it on eBay too so it's easy for you to get some to try it out. You use the tiniest amount but because it doesn't settle into enlarged pores and it contains minerals that reflect light, it disguises any kind of 'scarring' and also it stops you getting spots because it doesn't block pores. The minerals in it reflect light a bit too which acts as a kind of concealer. It's hard to explain but it's fantastic. Just make sure not to use too much - and apply with a kabuki brush starting from the outside and working in so you don't end up with an over made up nose!





    I know people say make up's a no no - but because this doesn't block pores and has the added effect of stopping you touching your face too much, I think it's good. You can wear it on its own too and as long as you apply it minimally, it covers but doesn't look like you've got make up on.





    Good luck with it hun XX





    PS - if you can get them, clean %26amp; clear do these blotting paper things - in the uk I find I have to order them in from Hong Kong or somewhere cos they stopped doing them here - but they're REALLY good.





    And if your face gets really greasy, just blot with a tissue if you can't find those. Some tissues are to fluffy so I tend to carry around a few sheets of kitchen roll for the purpose!!!





    PPS - If you get your skin relatively under control, try using '21 days Fade Cream' (which I get from eBay) because it quickly clears up any scarring. I can only use it once a day though because otherwise (even though it's a 'cream-gel') it can make my skin a bit greasy again so I tend to use that at night but only during periods that my skin's doing 'good'!

    Let the water run until it's very hot, as hot as you can handle. Grab a towel and wet the corner. Press it to the whitehead for 30-60 seconds. Then, apply an acne cream. This way you won't get scars from picking. You might have to do this one or two times.How can i get rid of whiteheads on your chin fast?
    Use a clay mask. It brings the white heads close to the surface. Then, use sugar to scrub them off. Open your pores first with warm water for about 5 minutes.

    What I do, and I haven't had a whitehead in forever, is use Clean %26amp; Clear Continuous Control cleanser each morning and/or night, depending on your skin type. (If you're skin is really sensitive, you may not want to use this cleanser twice a day. If not, it really helps.) Anyhoo, after that I wipe an astringent containing salycylic acid in it (I use Clean %26amp; Clear Blackhead Clearing Astringent, though they have a lot), and then, if it's a whitehead, I dab on a cream containing benzoyl peroxide. This works better overnight, but as long as it's a clear cream, you can use it during the day. If you have a longer amount of time, I like to dab on some Mint Julep Mask made from Helene or Queen Helene or something. You can find it at wal-mart and drugstores. It's really cheap. Good luck.How do you get rid of whiteheads?
    white heads are closely related to black heads but are no where near the same, there are usually found around the eyes and nose area, they are caused by blocked pores where the skin is fine. They can usually be caused by make up or moisuriser. The best thing to do is avoid using products near these areas. If you are that bother use a tiny sterilie pin and pop them, but this can scar, so do only if your positive you want to do it!



    hot hot hot water. like out of the faucet hot, not boiling. soak a wash cloth put it on the white head.

    how to get rid of blackheads? Like pimples, blackheads are the result of an underlying skin problem 鈥?the over production of oil by glands contained in our skin, exacerbated by the improper shedding of old skin 鈥?and rather than removing blackheads by squeezing, the best way to get rid of them is by attacking the source of the problem. A good cleansing routine is one of the best ways to remove blackheads, as it will help wash away excess oil and dead skin particles. A gentle cleanser is a good choice as it won鈥檛 dry out the skin excessively (which results in the production of even more of that nasty sebum!). Combined with the use of a gentle exfoliant, which will help remove old skin cells, this is all you need to help keep your skin blackhead free.How do you remove blackheads and whiteheads?

    Neither blackheads nor whiteheads should be squeezed or picked open, unless extracted by a dermatologist under sterile conditions.

    Just wash your face daily with soap and water. It's been working for me for years.How can i prevent zits from breaking out and how can i prevent whiteheads and blackheads?
    woah..ive heard of faces breaking out but zits breaking out..thatz just nasty..lol
    use noxema facial cleanser
    Tetracycline. It's been used for years, and actually works. You'll have to guard your skin from the sun during treatment, because you'll be more prone to burn.
    Get enough sleep. Do not eat hot or spicy food.
    OK I'm going to tell you i know someone who had severe acne,


    i did not see them for like a month than one day when i did see them i didn't recognize them because they had almost no acne! so i was like what did you do to get rid of your acne and he said that he used a cotton ball with some rubbing alcohol and rubbed it all over his face then followed wih neutrogena (I'm not sure how to spell that word) and it really worked for him i couldn't believe how much smother and cleaner his face looked! try it i hope it works for you :) p.s he did say it is going to burn but it is real inportant that you put the cream on afterwords and depending on how severe your acne problem is like if it is mild than once a day before bedtime if it is out of control try twice a day:0
    I used to get a lot of zits so bad i went to the doctor and asked whats good for spots, He said ';your face, by the looks of it';





    Biactol face wash worked for me.
    Any dermatologist will tell you your skin will get worse before it gets better. There are prescription drugs that your dermatologist can give you to take orally to help clear your skin. Acne will cause scaring so the sooner you take care of the problem the less scaring you will experience. Please be careful and good luck.
    i used proactiv too and at first it seemed like it didnt work it just takes sum time. tha basic kit they send you dont help everything..they have other products for problems lyke scarring. products u buy in tha store usually dont work so you could go to a beauty supply place and they could tell you about them. if you dont think they will work then you can go see a dermatologist and ask about differin cream.
    wash your face daily. dont eat chocolate.
    you should go to a dermatologist or your regular doctor, they can perscribe you some medicine and strong cream that will clear it up.
    Try going to the dermatologist and asking for Accutane or Differin Gel.

    okay wellll i think you should find a good cleanser, toner and moistoriser that works good for your skin. At the moment im using neutrogena rapid clear and it seems to be working. But drink lots of water change pillow slips regulary but not every night now thats OCD! but also at least once or twice a week scrub your face and use a mask. Get a face washer and soak it in hot water then put it on your face and its like a mini sauna then keep splashing your face with icy cold water to close the pores. If you have an aloe vera plant in your yard its fun to chop it up and put the goo green stuff on your face and its also very good for your acne as well. Keep cleaning your face and keep a positive attitude (:
    dont touch your skin at all if you can help it. cleanse tone and moistureise ever day, and change your pillow slip every night


    if your going to have pimples, theres not much you can do (i would know) but keeping your skin clean is very important, it will stop excessive breakouts


    dirt on your skin is what causes most pimples, so do everything you can to avoid it.
    Baking soda? Ouch?! I bet you got more spots afterwards! You shouldn't overclean your face, the more you clean the more oil will be produced by the skin to compensate for what you remove. I've struggled for years with congested skin, and I have tried all sorts in my time. The worst I found the medicated products, stuff like Clearasil. No matter what, spots just kept coming and coming. A friend of mine told me to wash with plain water because I may simply be overcleaning my skin, and use a good chemical free moisturiser or pure oil. I wasn't convinced at all, especially about oiling my face, but I am glad I listened. My spots went within a few weeks, and I've not had many (montly cycle excluded!) for a few years. Occasionally I use an antibacterial face wash from Handmade Naturals http://www.handmadenaturals.co.uk/shop/shop.php?action=full%26amp;id=58, that settles the odd outbreak and I moisturise with pure jojoba oil, from the same place. That's all! Good luck!
    u kno wat works dose clearacell and dose pimple creams dont work u kno wat works...u good soap bar wen u wake up just go to da bathroom soap ur face and rub thouragly den wash with nice hot water...also do it b4 u sleep it works better den dose creams srsly o and dont eat chips and junk food i cant stop my self but u gotta stop a bit and not eat as much srsly it works ur pimples would disapear in like a week or 2
    go buy a decent face soap, wash in the morning, and before bed, try not to touch your face with your hands. if you keep it up and dont slack off you should be clearing up by the end of the month.
    basic hygiene and a low fat diet. Also see a dermatologist for professional help
    use Clean and Clear! Haha!

    Biore pore strips, hands down. You can get them at any drugstore.

    I have lots of whiteheads and blackheads although I wash my face regularly.?

    I am currently using two products for my cleanser. Clinelle and B.Liv. Both are non-comedogenic and I use them alternately. However, my toner and moisturizer are both Clinelle. And I also scrub my face once or twice a week.





    I have obvious pores on my face and my skin in sort of oily, especially on the cheeks and nose.





    What could be the problem?I have lots of whiteheads and blackheads although I wash my face regularly.?
    I am not to sure of the brands you use.





    Sounds like you need to use a stronger acne wash


    toner and spot treat your area's.





    Black heads are easy to remove on the nose with a hot compress, repeat and gently push nose upwards.


    You can work them out of your face with your knuckles (not nails)


    and or a hot mask.





    scrubbing your face once or twice a week you mean exfoliate?





    Wash your face twice a day and stick with the same regime.


    (Brand) Am and PM wash, toner and spot treat.

    The white heads are alot less noticeable but i want to get rid of them too.

    Put some baking soda with a little water (just enough so you can rub it on your nose) and use it as a scrub for just a minute or less. It works! I promise! Just don't scrub too hard 'coz it might irritate your skin. Remember, moderation and consistency is the key. Try to do it every other day to clean your pores.How can I remove a million black heads and whiteheads off my nose ?
    biore has different products to help unclog pores but for the whiteheads there isnt realy any thing that helps it except not eating a lot of junk food. white heads you just have to live with them or press them until the white comes out.
    If you get a facial they can do blackhead extraction. Facialists know what they are doing and won't leave your skin red.
    use noxerum
    use acne cleanser
    use the clean and clear black head eraser
    boire pore strips work good....3 times a week.

    How do u get rid of whiteheads and blackheads? I have whiteheads all over my nose....how do i get rid of them?

    1.Use an oatmeal or almond mask throughly to cleanse your face. Mix either oatmeal or almond powder with enough rose water to make a soft paste that spreads easily on the skin. Rub it on your skin with your fingertips, paying special attention the problem areas. Leave to dry for about 15 minutes and then rinse off with cold water.





    2.Apply undiluted lemon juice, two to three times a day, on the affected areas.





    3.A solution made out of one and a half cups of hot water and half a tablespoon of boric powder is an ideal concoction for blackheads, Saturate a face napkin in this hot solution and press on to the skin, repeat twice. Extract blackheads carefully with a blackhead remover and sterilized cottonwool. Pat on an astrigent.

I have whiteheads all over my nose....how do i get rid of them?
    biore strips for the blackheads, proactive is great if you have acne... don't use bar soap on your face, use liquid.
    biore strips
    Biore strips work really well but they do cause overdrying of the surrounding skin area because after all you are ripping off a very small layer of skin. I always suggest that blackheads and whiteheads be dealt with manually because you are addressing the specific area and thats alll that matters. You can do this by wrapping your two index fingers with tissue or toilet paper and gently applying pressure inwards toward the blackhead or whitehead with your two fingers-its gross to watch but its good for you.
    i say pop der white heads and black heads but onli du dem if u r not goin out newhere
    I heard that if u get a bowl of boiling water and put you're face over it and a towel over your head. Stay for a few mins and the pores should open up and the blackheads easy to get rid of. Never tried it so not sure if it works
    i've had the same problem and tried a lot of expensive beauty products to try and get rid of them. Basically, there aren't any products that you can get at your local drugstore that do the job. Your only two options are retin-a (which sucks because you it makes your face red and you can't go out in the sun) or Differin Gel. Differin Gel requires a prescription from a dermatologist but is definitely the best product.

    Neutrogena Blackhead scrub. It works great.

    I started drinking 2litres water and ive come out with 1 or 2 whiteheads spots is this normal?

    i am spot prone so i do get them but not for a while, im thinking it because ive started a healthier deit and water it may be coming out...isnt that the opposite of whats meant to happen?I started drinking 2litres water and ive come out with 1 or 2 whiteheads spots is this normal?
    Thats a good thing. I studied biology, and what the water is doing is getting rid of the bad toxins in your body... ever hear 'It will get worse before it gets better'.. thats whats happening. Just grin and bare , because your body is cleaning itself out , So dont worry its a good thing , It will go in less than a weekI started drinking 2litres water and ive come out with 1 or 2 whiteheads spots is this normal?
    The water is flushing out all the impurities and toxins from your body.


    One of the main ways that the body does this is to eliminate the toxins through the skin so it is quite normal for you to get a spot or two.


    But no need to worry they will soon clear up.


    Keep up the good work and your body will thank you for it.


    The more water you drink the less likely you will be to get spots in the future / long-term.
    simply because you haven't had a spot or two for a while, doesn't mean you will never get them...water keeps you healthy and hydrated, but it cannot do anything for the environment you are in, air pollution, dirt, oils all contribute to the skin breakouts, not the water.

    How do you get rid of whiteheads ontop of spots quickly and easily?

    Mix Cornstarch With Vinegar, make a paste and apply on the area for 15-30 minutes; wash off with washcloth and warm water, this helps to get rid whiteheads.

    Gently rub corn meal on your face, this will pick up oil and gently exfoliate. Also I find that putting a equal part mixture of vinegar and honey onto my pimples helps clear them up faster. Apply like a mask or spot treat a couple times a day. This will help get rid of the acne and help repair your skin. Another remedy I use is witch hazel with added tea tree oil, this is the perfect toner that won't dry you out. Only use unadulterated Tea tree Oil, you can find a good one at Sally's beauty supply.

    Clean and Clear is the best...they have a lot of face washes for different things but if you get a cleansing face wash that has exfoliating beads and use it every mornin and night then it'll clear up your face and get rid of the white headsWhat over the counter treatment works really well for breakouts, blackheads and whiteheads?
    clean and clear
    try sea breeze astringents
    noxema and rubbing alcohol. or clean and clear products.
    I use Pond's or Biore face strips for nose, chin, and forehead for blackheads. They work great.
    try st. ives apricot scrub- blemish %26amp; blackhead control.


    i use it and it works really well and fast. i mean you can literally tell a difference within one day (at least i can). it gently exfoliates to remove dirt, oil and dead skin cells that can clog pores. the face wash is also a natural swiss formual..so you know it wont irritate your skin
    I use clearskin by avon. Its a great, cheap product that works wonderful. go to www.avon.com and look it up. You will like it.
    I also had mild acne- the important thing is to really deep clean, but also make sure your face is well moisturized so that your skin doesn't overcompensate by producing excess oil (hence the blackheads, whiteheads, etc.) Try a gentle face wash/scrub combo... Neutrogena and Clean and Clear both make them. I usually do this step in the shower in the morning. I focus on gently rubbing this on my face, focusing on the areas that need it most, like my T-zone. Then, if I have a couple of pimples that are starting to show, I will apply Neutrogena Spot Treatment (small white tube) to just those problem spots. After that dries, I use a tinted moisturizer as my foundation (Stila is GREAT) and it also gives me SPF 15 coverage, which is a plus. Always apply foundatio/tinted moisturizer with a good foundation brush. It helps with even coverage and also limits the amount of bacteria you put on your freshly cleaned face. In general, I avoid touching my face excessively, as that tends to add pore clogging dirt and germs from my fingertips. As this becomes a routine, you'll find you break out less and have clean, supple skin! Good luck!

    I hear the term a lot but I have no clue what it means or looks like. Any information will be helpful.What is the difference between whiteheads and blackheads...which one is worse?
    white heads are the white, blister looking pimples. Blackheads are little black dots that appear in pores. I believe it's whiteheads that are worse, because they are actually pus.What is the difference between whiteheads and blackheads...which one is worse?
    Black Heads
    Black heads are mostly caused by dirt. White heads are mostly caused by oil. Both are infections and both are gross. White heads are harder to get rid of. Black heads are usually more abundant. EWE!
    Theyre both caused by white blood cells rushing to the site of infection. A clogged pore is like an infection. A whitehead is when the surface of the skin is not broken and the white blood cells just sit there. A blackhead is when the surface of the skin is broken and air/environmental effects turns the white blood cells to black. I dont think one is technically worse than the other, but both can be solved by washing your face daily, not touching your face too much during the day, and/or medication.

    I have a bunch of whiteheads on my face I go to a dermatolagist and I am on the highest working stuff?

    the highest working stuff doest work and i have tried to put toothpaste on them but it doesnt help. I am starting school at the end of august and i would like to look pressentable. can anyone give me any tips on what to do about them???I have a bunch of whiteheads on my face I go to a dermatolagist and I am on the highest working stuff?
    what I do is steam my face and then take them out.





    it works like a charm





    or go to a salon and get a facial.





    I used to have a lot of white heads but after doing that and cleaning my face every other night, They are all gone!I have a bunch of whiteheads on my face I go to a dermatolagist and I am on the highest working stuff?
    put a hot cloth on them and pop them!
    Try mixing 2 tablespoons of table salt with 1 1/2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.


    then put it on your face for 2 minutes and rinse off.


    Only do that for a week. every night.


    You might have a tiny break out after 3 days because the oil sinks down into your pores and brings all the impurities up but that will go away within a day.


    All you have to do is give it a week, and your skin will be clear and soft.


    Then after that week of using it every day, continue to use it every other day.


    That mixture usually lasts 2-3 days then you have to make more.

    How to remove blackheads and whiteheads from face and avoid dark circles?

    If you have a problem with blackheads and whiteheads, you should not try to remove them yourself. There is a possibility that you will push them down and create an infection. If at all possible, you should get extractions done by a professional known as an aesthetician.


    If you can't see someone and want to do it at home, take a hot shower. Once the skin softens, take two Q-tips and work the area that has the problem. If you can feel a hard knot, then there is a bulb you need to get out of the skin.


    Do not use your fingernails or you could cause an infection. Also, always cleanse your hands before moving on to another area.


    You also need to get a routine of washing your face, toning and then moisterizing in the mornings and at night. Hope this helps!How to remove blackheads and whiteheads from face and avoid dark circles?

    What is a good, natural face mask for whiteheads/blackheads?

    I heard that using an egg yoke or an egg white would work.


    but isn't that basically all fat? wouldn't that just clog it up?








    what are some good face masks that i could make in my kitchen?


    thanks in advance!What is a good, natural face mask for whiteheads/blackheads?
    There are many good reviews from people who used egg mask. And, no i don't think it is basically all fat and will clog it up. Instead, egg masks works well because it contain highly of vitamin A and other nutrients that is really good for your skin. Maybe you should try it first as it is very simple to do. I've add the recipe and the steps on how to do the mask here:

    How to get rid of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, etc.?

    School starts in two days, and i have been trying to get clear skin all summer. i have been eating healthier, drinking water, stuff like that, but it just doesn't seem to help me. and today i just found a pimple right on my cheek. it's not like i have really bad skin, but a few places here and there need help. so if their is any scrubs, facial masks, or home remedies (preferred), it would help me out a lot. thanks!(:How to get rid of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, etc.?
    Stop popping the spots, also known as pimples and zits. This may make the pimple look worse due to inflammation and irritation. Popping a zit can spread infection under the skin and produce even more pimples than before. If you do pop a spot then immediately clean it with soap and water or rubbing alcohol in order to prevent infection. If a pimple erupts in a particularly bothersome place, learn how to target a single pimple. And if you're determined to pop, learn how to pop a pimple safely and properly. If you do pop a pimple and you want to avoid anything resembling Western medicine, one thing to try is put a mixture of honey and ground cinnamon on the spot. Put a band-aid on it also. You may also want to stay away from stress.


    # Use a mild soap for sensitive skin but it doesn't matter exactly what type of soap you use. It can be designed for acne-prone skin or not, but you will want to treat your skin gently. Harsh antibacterial soap may actually make your acne worse by irritating skin.


    # Remove dead skin cells regularly by exfoliating. Use a gentle scrub with natural defoliants like ground walnut shells, or use an over-the-counter chemical defoliant like salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Adding ground walnut shell to a thick moisturizer like cocoa butter can be effective too. Take caution, because over-exfoliating can actually increase the likelihood of acne by irritating the skin. Pat dry, rather than rubbing, since rubbing can cause irritation to the fresh skin you've just revealed.


    # Use a good toner. Spray onto face or wipe on with a cotton ball and wipe off with a clean, dry cotton ball. This gets rid of excess cleanser and tightens pores. Good, inexpensive choices include plain witch hazel for normal to dry skin, lemon juice, or 3% hydrogen peroxide for oily skin. 70% ethyl rubbing alcohol can also be used for severe oiliness, but it can really dry out your skin and irritate it more. Some toners are medicated, and this stage is the best for using a medicated product if you're only going to use one medication.


    # Dermabrasion removes the redness. A simple natural home remedy for this is to use the skin inside of an egg shell. Google ';dermabrasion with eggs';.


    # Bacteria in pores is one cause of spots. Reduce the amount of bacteria by using toners containing anti-bacterial agents like alcohol, peroxide and benzalkonium chloride, and by using creams that contain benzoyl peroxide (ask your doctor about benzaclin, with moisturizer if you have dry skin, as it works better than just plain benzoyl because benzoyl takes up to 8 weeks before improvement is seen) which kill bacteria as well as cause the skin to regenerate faster.


    # Maintain a routine. Most acne treatments take time to work. It usually takes between two and eight weeks before you see any significant improvement, so you are going to have to be patient. Once you've gotten your acne cleared up, it's important to continue with the treatment that's working so it does not return.


    # If all else fails, contact a doctor. Mild antibiotics that are available only by prescription can help reduce acne. Keep in mind though, that the widespread overuse (taking antibiotics when you really don't need them or for something they don't treat) and misuse (not taking medication for the specified amount of time) of antibiotics has led to the development of multiple antibiotic resistant bacteria. That means that the antibiotics won't work for the things they used to (including your acne).


    # Keep hair off of your face if at all possible. If you want to keep your bangs, then consider taking showers regularly or keeping your forehead clean with oil-dabbing cloths / clean tissues / etc.


    # Get good sleep. Stress increases your skin's oiliness, which, combined with sweat and dirt, can clog pores and cause pimples. (Change your pillowcase frequently.)


    # Acne medications may cause your skin to initially break out worse than before because all FDA-approved acne medications (benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and sulfur) are causing your skin to regenerate faster. This brings existing acne pimples already under your skin (but not visible yet) to the surface, which in turn causes a massive but fortunately temporary break out. Give the medications time to work -- about one to two weeks -- and you will notice a big difference in the quality of your skin.





    * See a dermatologist if over the counter remedies do not work. They specialize in skin care and can prescribe you medicines that help you improve it.


    * Drink plenty of water. Staying well hydrated can help your condition improve, because the ';waste management'; control system in your body requires a lot of water to do its job. Without enough water, the body has difficulty removing some waste products efficiently.


    * Look for face washes which contain the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide. This is the key ingredient in some of the best face washes. use a 5-10% benzoyl peroxide of mild to moderate acne andHow to get rid of pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, etc.?
    just put toothpaste on top of them before you go to bed and it will dry them out for you, they probably wont come back since youre taking healthy precautuions in your life.

    I want to buy a tool to pop whiteheads, but i know that in the long run it will only open up my pores even more and allow more whiteheads to come.


    Is there any way to get rid of whiteheads without this happening?


    If not, please recommend a whitehead removal tool that worked great for you, cheap if possibleHow to get rid of whiteheads safely?
    Use an extractor to remove the whitehead. After you remove it, put a band aid over where it was so it can't fill up again.How to get rid of whiteheads safely?
    Exfoliating twice a week is a good natural way of cleaning skin up, including ridding and preventing whiteheads. Whiteheads are caused by a build up of sebum in the pore. The skin secretes sebum through the pores, and if the pore gets blocked in any way (like tiny dead skin particles) the sebum can't escape and creates a ';whitehead';. Unless they are removed carefully they can puss up and be awful. Exfoliating twice a week helps keeps pores clear and allows the sebum to escape freely. Using a gentle facial wash every day will keep skin surface clear in between.
    It's fine to squeeze them as long as they don't get infected. squeeze them between cotton buds instead of your fingers as it's much more hygienic as less chance of infection, then put antiseptic cream on it
    What i do is use toilet paper over my fingers then squeeze it. It will be red and might bleed a little but it will then go in about a day.
    Mary, if I put a band aid on every whitehead I popped - my face would be covered in them.


    Best go to a beauty saloon and let them deal with them.

    okaaay..


    First thing you should do to your skin is drinking lots of water, which removes the toxins from the skin and keeps whiteheads at bay.





    Wash off your face with mild cleansers and use mild scrubbers on your skin at least thrice a week. If you apply scrubbers on the skin after taking mild steam in the skin, they go off sooner as it softens the skin and opens up the pores. But always apply skin toner after cleaning the skin to close the pores. You can even rub an ice cube on the skin wrapped in a cotton cloth to block the pored after steaming.


    Use creams and gels, which contain alpha Hydroxyl fruit acids. They help in unclogging the pores to remove the whiteheads.


    Never squeeze or forcibly remove the whiteheads otherwise you will get a scar or skin infection. Take professional help if the problem cannot be tackled by you.


    Apply homemade scrubbers made by fruit peels. Dry orange peels in the sun and make a powder of them by grinding them. Add rosewater and milk cream to this powder and apply on the skin. Wash it off while rubbing it in the wrong direction when it's half dried. It will make the skin clear, smooth and will remove the whiteheads.


    Rubbing lemon peel on the skin helps in reducing whiteheads. Use medicated soaps and cleansers on the skin and apply oil free moisturizers.


    Drink fresh fruit juices and drink a glass of warm water with some lemon juice into it first thing in the morning. It helps in detoxifying the skin.


    Soak almonds in the water overnight, in the morning grind them and make a paste. Add honey to it and massage it on the face for few minutes. Leave it on the skin for 5-10 minutes and then rinse off with lukewarm water. It cleans away the white heads to some extent.What exactly causes whiteheads? I keep getting them on my face and on my arms.?
    Whiteheads are caused by the accumulation of sebaceous matter beneath the skin. They occur on different parts of the face, neck, chest and the shoulders. Used green tea can be utilized by scrubbing your face with it. Do it twice a week and see the difference. Check out http://useinfo-whitehead.blogspot.com/ for more useful info on whiteheads.

If not 1 of these..then wahts the best way of getting rid of whiteheads from stuff at homeWhats the best way of getting rid of whiteheads?
    With what you have, I would say to use the cleanser, the toner, and the cream twice daily; morning and night. Use the scrub instead of the cleanser two to three times a week or use a washrag with the cleanser.





    Some other tips:


    Use a warm compress on your face before the cleanser.


    Ice your face for about two minutes after the cleanser. Use the ice especially on the actual whiteheads. These two steps will help you open the pores to clean them out and then close them again.





    DO NOT PICK AT YOUR SKIN! It can cause severe infections and scars. In fact, unless you're cleansing, you shouldn't really even be touching your face.





    Try changing shampoos and conditioners, too. A lot of them have comedogenic (pore clogging) ingredients.





    Be sure to use a clean washrag each time you wash your face.





    Do not use fabric softeners or detergents with perfumes especially on your pillowcase, as both are pore clogging.Whats the best way of getting rid of whiteheads?
    Put toothpaste on them! I find that if I pop it, then put toothpaste on it immediatly then it goes away faster! I know people say don't pop them, but who can resist? Just make sure you wash your hands before and after!

    Can i use biore pore strips for whiteheads?

    Hi i've been having trouble with removing whiteheads, mostly on my nose and chin. I wanted to know if biore pore strips will have the same effect if i used it because there's no product for just whiteheads. Also i went on a couple of websites that said egg white and tissue helps too. Is that true? What should i do?Can i use biore pore strips for whiteheads?
    No, it won't work, because whiteheads (comedones) are covered with a layer of skin, and the Biore strips cannot 'grab' onto the whitehead.


    The only way is to pierce the skin and then remove it. Best ot go to a skin salon or the dermatologist.


    You can do it yourself with a sterilized needle, but it isn't recommended.Can i use biore pore strips for whiteheads?
    Biore pore strips are mostly meant for blackheads, which is just dead skin cells that surface on the skin. A whitehead is more like an oil and bacteria clog within the ';infected'; pore. With that said, I don't think using that certain product will eliminate the problem. Use neosporin on it and the bacteria will eventually surface.
    aren't whiteheads just pimples? use acne medication for those. theres not a lot else you can do, unless you get birth control or some sort of intense acne medication.
    yup


    works for everything
    no. by some over the counter pimple cream.
