I have blackheads all over my nose. No matter I what I do I can't get rid of them. It's so irritating.

Try an egg mask.
You need 1 Egg white, 1 tissue, Small bowl
*Whisk the egg white in the small bowl till it fluffy
* cut the tissue to fit the area
* Dip the tissue in the egg white thn apply to the area.
Let it sit till it gets hard thn pill it off. Itll remove the white and black heads. Good luck girls:)

Blackheads an whiteheads are the same things white heads are closed comedones meaning no air has gotten to the sebum and dibre inside open comedones are blackheads were there is a tiny hole that air has dried up and oxidized the sebum they are both a form of acne

You can try a couple different things one would be a BHA cleanser containing salicylic acid ,or a AHA cleanser which is Alpha hydroxy acid ,or if your over 20 a retinol serum at night and or a clarisonic ,you have to remove your makeup at night and you can also use a tee tree toner and spot treatment.

I have recently tried this method and it works well. Mix equal amounts of gelatin and milk/water. heat it up a bit and then apply a very thin layer on your nose. Peal it off. There would be a visible difference.
