Step 1: You will need

Step 2: Daily exfoliator

In the morning, wash your face using a daily exfoliator and some warm water. Apply in a circular motion, emphasising the common problem areas. In men these are normally the nose and upper cheeks. When you're done, rinse your face with warm water.

Step 3: Apply cream

Apply a face cream especially designed to reduce enlarged pores. This will be specified on the packaging. Apply using upward strokes. You can also tap the skin to improve circulation.

Step 4: Apply toner

Dampen a cosmetic pad by running it under warm water, then squeezing the water out of the pad. Apply toner to the pad and run lightly over your nose and upper cheeks. Toner will close the pores after exfoliating.

Step 5: At night

Before you go to bed, wash your face with soap and warm water. Use a soap designed for oily or neutral skin. This will be clearly marked on the packaging. Finally run over your face with some toner before heading off for that all-important beauty sleep.

Step 6: A steam bath

If, despite these preventative measures you find yourself faced with a rogue blackhead, fill a bowl with hot, steaming water. Drape a towel over your head and lean over the bowl. Stay in the steam for 10 minutes. This will open the pores and soften the content of the blackhead.

Step 7: Extricate the blighter

Wrap a tissue around each of your index fingers, and apply gentle pressure on each side of the blackhead. Try to tease out the blackhead. Don't squeeze too hard, and if the blighter's stubborn back off - the last thing you want is to cause scarring. Never use your fingernails as they carry dirt and can cause further infection.

Step 8: Call in the professionals

For a flawless complexion, consider a regular facial once every 4 weeks or so.

    Correction blackheads are not caused by DIRT.. they are caused by excess oil in the sebaceous gland.

    If you have had skin problems for years and you need to get on top of them, there are a number of things you can do, especially in regards to how to remove whiteheads on nose. First of all, if you're someone who needs to know how to remove whiteheads on nose, realize that you're not alone. A lot of people have this problem, men and women alike. And because they can get worse during hormonal swings, they can strike at any time during your life. • Clean the skin with mild soap and water morning and evening. It is recommended that this routine is not carried more than four times a day, as it may dry out the skin significantly. • Dry the face, back or pressure affected areas with a towel, never carving. • Use the special cleaners for the face (astringent lotions) should have very oily skin, since only then is it possible to remove impurities that soap can not remove.

    All the products he is using are the WRONG ones for oily skin & breakouts, NEVER wash face with soap. It's too drying and can cause more congestion. Mix a solution of baking soda & water to a liquid-soak cotton pads in this solution and apply to facial areas to be extracted from. Leave on for 10 mins. If you can steam your face using a towel like a tent over your head -over the sink-with hot water running. The steam & solution combine will loosen blackheads-definately use tissues over finger tips. NEVER pinch the skin. Push skin together AROUND the clog to release. Good Luck!

    I find that instead of using a toner, splashing cold water onto the face closes the pores and is less harsh on your skin. Always finish with an appropriate moisturiser even if you have oily skin.

    you should apply toner after washing before applying cream...otherwise you will wipe off the cream...which needs to stay on the skin...
