What works to get rid of acne and blackheads?

Question:

Answers:
Blackheads can happen to anyone, no matter what your skin type. Blackheads are caused by oil in your skin that gets caught and expands in the pores. Oxidizing from exposure to the air, the oil actually turns black.

what works for some people might not work for everyone but here are some things that you can consider.~

First, stop the problem before it starts. Use noncomedogenic, oil-free, water-based skin-care products. (Noncomedogenic means the products were laboratory tested and approved by the FDA not to clog pores and cause blackheads.)

If you change your skin-care routine and still get blackheads, speak to a dermatologist about getting a prescription for Retin-A, which is a strong exfoliant that opens pores, sloughs off dead skin and cleans out blackheads.

If all else fails, a dermatologic facial performed at a dermatologist's office involves a prescription-strength acid that gets rid of dead layers of skin and the use of surgical instruments to extract the blackheads.

Blackheads are a problem that should be treated by a dermatologist. But, if you want to try an over-the-counter product, a lot of people rave about Biore Pore Perfect Strips, which are supposed to lift out blackheads on your nose, forehead and chin.

Hope this helps~

Cleanse and exfioliate the dead skin cells and use a healing mask with camomile to calm down any redness . You also need to use aloe vera to get rid of the inflammation and the acne will clear . With the Blackheads you need to draw out the trapped dirt with deep cleansing mask . You must take care not to aggitate to acne. Biore,Clearasil,Noxzema,Stride. can work to rid of acne and blackheads.

Pro-Active. If it is too costly for your wallet, may I suggest Clean & Clear facial wash, & MUDD clay mask, you can even wash with the Mudd clay mask stuff. I hope this helps.
