Hi guys, I have a lot of black heads on my nose, and a lot on my chin (you can hardly notice the ones on my chin) but do you guys know how to get rid of them?

I used to have all of these on a note on my phone but I got a new phone so pardon if I miss anything. Blackheads are dirt or oil clogged in your pores, so the best thing to work with that is salicylic acid. The way salicylic acid works is by basically deteriorating anything you apply it on, which is why it's perfect for getting deep into the pores. Purchasing a cleanser, toner and moisturizer with this ingredient will help keep blackheads away by getting rid of them and keeping your face clean, which of course reduces the chance of dirt clogging your pores. I also recommend buying a good scrub, to exfoliate your face once a week or once every two weeks. This is essentially another way to get deep into the pores. For a quick fix, you can get pore strips, but they do not remove all of your black heads, they usually only remove newer ones that aren't as deep or hard to remove. If you're desperate to get rid of them and pore strips have failed, you can buy extraction tools that essentially squeeze the dirt out, just be sure to exfoliate prior and prepare your skin. You can buy this at any beauty supply store and some drugstores by the tweezers and stuff. Once your skin is rid of your black heads, try and stick to a gentle cleanser, and stay moisturized to avoid the over production of oil which will give you the same problem once again. I recommend a milk cleanser a long with an oil free moisturizer.

Get pore strips! they don't work all the time, but for the most part they do. I recommend biore!

Try oil cleansing. Many people who have blackheads claim to be able to feel them literally rolling off in their hands during some of the first oil cleansing sessions. It will be like little granules when you are massaging in the Oil. Sounds gross, but whatever works is how I see it!

You spread Elmer's glue over your nose, let it dry, then peel it off

Okay so my skin use to be just like yours blackheads in the exact same places! I stopped by target & went to the facial area & bought the cheap exfoliating black head & blemish scrub right by the St.Ives kind & it worked like a charm! Gone in a week max! Love it & it's so cheap & works great.
