Aside from pimples, blackheads are another form of unsightly ‘bumps’ on your skin. They usually appear on the side of the nose, which are caused by excess oils. Personally, the solution that I have for this skin problem is to use one of those acne cleansing strips which are readily available in drugstores.

Aside from this, you should have a strict skin care regimen to prevent not just blackheads but also pimples to appear on your skin. You should cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin before going to bed. Wash your face with medicated soap and lukewarm water so that the oiliness can be reduced. If you do not like using the pore cleansing strips, you can use a pore cleansing cream or facial wash so that blackheads can be prevented.

Using a deep cleansing mask regularly also helps keep your pores from grease.

Lastly, use a good moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated after using a cleansing product. By following these tips and using products which are suitable for the type of skin that you have, steering clear of blackheads is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
