i heard that to get ride of blackheads, you can steam your face so it will make you sweat and open up your pores, then use a bobbypin to push them out or something [?]
my question is do u steam ur face over like a boiling pot of water or is there like a special technique that comes with it all? ![]() |

I've used this technique before. Wash and exfoliate your face. Boil some water, pour it into a bowl, put your head over the bowl with a towel over your head and the bowl. Sit there for about 5-10 minutes(depending on how your necks doing :p) and then use an astringent or blackhead strips.
DONT FORCE THEM OUT! When you "pop" them or force them out by yourself (apparently dermatologists can do it) you have a really high chance of spreading the dirt and bacteria stuff that causes them. In the end it hurts like hell, can scar your face, and usually makes it worse. |
