Wash your hands thoroughly and use a gentle cleanser on them (like Cetaphil).
Then moisturize with something like an oil-free moisturizer that doesn’t contain any fragrances or harmful ingredients. Also, avoid picking at the skin around your blackheads because this can lead to more breakouts in the future! Finally, try not to squeeze too hard when extracting these nasty little guys from under your nose—the pressure might make things worse instead of better!
Make sure to only pierce your blackheads
Don’t squeeze blackheads on the nose.
Don’t try to extract blackheads. Don’t use a needle or pincer to remove blackheads.
Don’t use a sharp object to remove blackheads
Use a tissue to clean up your skin before you start
Use a tissue to clean up your skin before you start. This will help prevent infection and irritation, which can reduce the chance of pimples forming.
