How to get rid of blackheads?
I have problems with this too! Thanks for sharing. Learned new from this thread.First, understand exactly what blackheads are so you don't damage your skin by trying to scrub them away. Blackheads are just a mix of oil and dead skin cells that are sitting in pores. When exposure to air it causes them to oxidize and turn black. Having them is not a sign that you're too dirty, so don't cause more damage by being rough with your skin and scrubbing really hard.
Creme with Salicylic acid is a great option for dissolving those blackheads away, and it can be found in lots of over-the-counter skincare products. You can use a leave-on product or a cleanser or soap, but the longer the exposure to the active ingredient, the better it'll work hence leave-on is the best choice. After using a salicylic acid product for several weeks, many of the blackheads will resolve, but others will just loosen.
There are more things to do like masks or retinoid etc...
