    Better go to a beautition ,she can give you water steam and then remove your black heads with a loop.they got this loop,I once went to this salon to get my face steam and stuff,I had it there.
    Its effective .

    Blackheads are caused by partially blocked pores. The "black" appearance of them is not caused by dirt, but by the oxidizing effect of air on the sebum (oil) in a blocked pore and the melanin pigment from the dead skin cells.

    Use a gentle exfoliating cleanser every day to remove dead skin cells so they don't block the pores. Exfoliation will loosen blackheads. But if you have stubborn blackheads, try using pore strips. You can also use topical creams, such as beta hydroxy, alpha hydroxy or Retin-A to help remove blackheads.
