How can I get rid of blackheads and keep them away? I use benzoyl peroxide wash in morning and salicylic acid wash at night along w retin a cream.

If its on the nose You can use biore pore strips I feel like it it really helps. You can see you blackheads on the paper & you can also peel off cream

Try a BHA or AHA exfoliant daily - I use the BHA exfoliant by Paula's choice and it works well for mine.

I tried this yesterday and it really helped me:
One part water
One part baking soda
One part non gel toothpaste
Mix together the apply to your nose with a toothbrush in a circular motion

Don't do that ^ that's super bad for the skin and will do more damage than good in the long run. Both baking soda and toothpaste can cause micro tears, dry out the skin, cause bad reactions and toothpaste can actually cause burns because of the antibacterial (usually a form of alcohol) aspects in it.

I agree with Alyx...don't! I use the Biore strips Cindy posted and they work really well:)

This may sound crazy but it worked great for the black heads on my nose and fore head. Try using Elmer's White school glue and apply a thin layer over the skin thT has black heads wait for it to dry or use a blow dryer till it's compleatly rdh then slowly peel it back from your face! This may sound gross but you'll be able to even see all the blackheads on the glue once it's peeled off!

Interesting Kenna. It makes total sense but wondering about any adverse effects as it is an adhesive.
