How can i get rid of these blackheads?

I have roughly hundreds of blackheads on my nose, and I can't seem to get rid of them. I've tried multiple blackhead products from pro-activ, biore, clean and clear, avon, facial bars, st. ives and more. But, no matter how religiously i stick to my cleansing, scrubbing, repairing routine, i can't seem to get rid of them.

Can anyone help me? Above is a picture. Also, does anyone know what the things are to the side of my nose, and how to treat those as well?How can i get rid of these blackheads?
I had the same problem! my nose looked almost the same.


Now I use Clean and Clear Blackhead Clearing Astringent and then nuetrogena pore refining toner.


But my best remedy for acne or blackheads is LOTS of fresh air. It makes your skin clearer and it TRULY helps!


best of luck!How can i get rid of these blackheads?
exfoliate your pores to shrink them and reduce the look of black heads. mix baking soda with water to make a microdremabrading paste. also sephora has a black head extractor tool that helps get rid of them. also blackheads are caused by oil, so using oil absorbing sheets can help prevent them
I heartily recommend ClearPores: http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickth鈥?/a>





Very effective.
Blackhead Prevention


There are many things that you can do to prevent blackheads from appearing on your face. Most involve cleansing and some require the use of medications.





Avoid using creamy, greasy, and thick (emollient) products. This alone will greatly lessen your chances of sprouting blackheads.


Use a gentle and water-soluble cleanser.


DO NOT use bar soap!!! The ingredients that hold soap in a bar form can clog the pores in your skin. They can also cause skin cells to flake off prematurely and clog the pores. If you have dry skin you will need to use a cleanser that has a bit of moisturizer in it, but be careful! The excess moisturizers can cause an increase in oil on your skin.


Exfoliate to eliminate skin cells. If there are no skin cells to clog the pores, the natural oil is able to flow through freely. Exfoliation also removes the built up cells from inside the pores that cause them to become misshapen and more-easily clogged. Using an exfoliant that contains 1% or 2% beta hydroxy acids (BHA or Salicylic Acid) will penetrate the lining of the pore. If you are unable to use BHAs, you could use products containing alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), however these acids are only good for surface exfoliation because they do not penetrate the pore lining.


Absorb excess oil. If you have oily skin, try using a clay mask that does not contain mint, peppermint or other irritating ingredients. This will absorb the oil that may clog the poor. If you have dry skin, this is not necessary because pimples on dry skin are caused by oil inside the pore, not on the surface of the skin. Also, oil-absorbing papers may help to reduce the oil in your pores.


Visit your dermatologist. Retinoids, which are a form of Vitamin A, can help regulate the pore shape which will keep oil flowing normally. The most common retinoids are tretinoin and adapalene, found in prescriptions such as Avita, Renova, Retin-A, Tazorac, and Differin.


Other medications. Hormone blockers and low-dose birth control pills can lower levels of androgens (the male hormone) and Accutane should be discussed with your physician in severe cases of oily skin and breakouts.
Beat white part of an egg. Add one teaspoon of honey and with a cotton swab, apply it on face. Keep it around half an hour and then scrub well and rinse with warm water. This is also good for blackheads and dark spots. Check out http://useinfo-blackhead.blogspot.com/ for more useful tips to control blackheads.
