How can I clean the pores on my nose??

My nose has really badly clogged pores even though I wash my face every night with the clarisonic, and exfoliate 2-3x a week. It gets all flaky and gross when I use foundation also 😲 I was looking into the glamglow mask, but its super pricey.. Any ideas on what I should try ladies? I love lush products too, maybe a mask from them would work?

You might need to start exfoliating more than 2-3x a week. I need to exfoliate every night or my pores start clogging & I break out.
you can also try Biore pore strips. they used to not work for me until I started using them immediately after showers. don't even touch a towel, lol. get out, apply the pore strip, then dry off.
I also like using a deep cleaning pore mask once a week. it's a lemon & mint clay mask, & it has made a noticeable difference.

I have a sample of the youthmud.. Are you referring to that or the clearing mud?

If I could get 10 uses out of it, and it actually work I would totally spend the money! I will try my sample tonight and see how it works :) right now I'm battling cystic acne and its sooo frustrating.

If you're a lushie you need to try their toner tabs for deep cleansing and decongestion of the pores. they are a very underrated inexpensive product that is fantastic for pores. my suggestion would be to use tea tree toner tab followed either by cupcake fresh face mask or mask of magnaminty. finish off by using any of their toner waters followed by feathering grease lighting on your nose and then applying a light weight moisturizer like vanishing cream or full of grace :)

You could even use the glamglow mask in place of a lush one I recommended ;) I've heard amazing things about that mask.

Thanks kenzie :) I lovee lush. I always wanted to try the toner tabs and cupcake mask :) will the grease lightning dry my nose out?

If you feel like it would be too much then skip it. grease lighting is a great spot treatment but it can also me feathered onto the t zone and other oily areas to help keep the skin from looking shiny.

It really depends on what you choose for your other products. tea tree toner tab and water, mask of mag. and vanishing cream are going to be more intense than dream time toner tab, the BOFA and eau roma toner waters, cupcake, and full of grace.

Hi Brandy! If you are battling cystic acne I'm not too sure I would go with the Youth Mud (black tin)
That one is for exfoliating which is great BUT you raise a high chance of spreading the bacteria all over your face, that will cause you to break out more. Just be really careful if you are going to try the youthmud when you have an active breakout.
Plus the white GG is clearing so its going to help everything come out anyways.

I want to know more about your skin if you don't mind!! Do you have any other concerns? & what's your skin type?

Natalie; my skin is oily on my nose and chin, I tend to get the cysts mostly on my chin, sometimes my cheeks. The rest of my face is normal/dry. My skin is also pretty sensitive too, to different products. I am constantly trying new makeup/skincare to find what works for me. Another thing thats weird, is that usually during the summertime, my skin is absolutely perfect.. But as soon as it gets cold, I have issues. I'm seeing the dr today to try and figure out what's wrong. Blah 😕
