How to Remove Blackheads The Best Blackhead Removal Guide

Some people also say that makeup remover oil is better than olive oil for removing blackheads. However, since makeup remover oil contains synthetic esters and emulsifiers, it can easily penetrate into the pores. Although it can remove blackheads, it will also enlarge the pores. The comparison is not worth it.

Manually squeeze blackheads

You have tried this simple and crude method, right? But really don't squeeze it. Because external force puts pressure on the skin, blackheads will not only pop outwards, but may also move inwards. If you don't squeeze them properly, it may damage the skin, which is the same as not squeezing acne.

Some people are not so rough and choose to use tweezers or comedone needles to remove blackheads. Although we should congratulate them for learning how to use the tool, the principle is the same as squeezing blackheads with hands. Be careful not to cause skin inflammation due to improper operation! I didn't squeeze out the blackheads but got a bump instead. How frustrating...

Nose patch to remove blackheads

Nose patches are effective in removing blackheads in the short term, but they can cause sagging skin and enlarged pores. Nose patches rely on their strong adhesion to the skin and tearing force to pull out blackheads.

I tried the nose patch myself once, and it hurt so much that tears came to my eyes the moment I tore it off. I wonder what the difference is between this and sticking transparent tape on your skin and then suddenly tearing it off? Even if it is effective in removing blackheads, I will not use it again.
