Cleanse the face thoroughly with a good cleanser meant for oily skin. Preferrably use a salicylic acid cleanser.
Apply an astringent like witch hazel. It helps reduce oiliness. If its a bit harsh mix a bit of rose water in it.
Apply a good quality medicated cream or gel containing resorcinol, salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. This helps is soaking the oil and helps in peeling away the blackheads. You can get creams or gels of Benzoyl Peroxide treating blackheads If benzoyl peroxide leaves your skin dry, apply an oil-free moisturizer after 10 mins of applying benzoyl peroxide.
Effective Tips to get rid of blackheads
鈥xfoliate the blackhead prone area 3-4 times a week using facial exfoliators and scrubs.
鈥se creams containing AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Fruit acids) like glyco-creams that will clear away any dead skin cells and ';expose'; the blackhead. Use the AHA's every 3 days or so.
鈥void washing the face with soaps more than twice a day. Instead wash your face often with plain water splashes.
鈥ften use a mask with a clay base.
If blackheads look ready to pop out, you could try removing them gently by using a blackhead extractor. Also, Pore cleanser strips (blackhead extractor) for removal of blackheads are highly recommended for the treatment/removal of blackheads. Using them once per week will leave your pores cleaner and smaller.
Steam your face to soften both the skin and the material blocking the pores.
=)Any home remedie zit and blackhead treatment?
this is good, but it's not a natural remedy...just saying... Report Abuse
Warm a little honey and apply on the blackhead areas. Wash off after 10-15 minutes.
use indian clay mud mask from the health food store to remove/prevent blackheads. if you have a horrible zit, cleanse well then use a band-aid to hold an uncoated aspirin {moistened with water} on the zit over night. it will bring it down alot as aspirin is an anti-inflammatory drug.
I bought a very effective piece of ';home beauty'; equipment a few years ago. It's a spa facial steamer - basically a small machine in which you put purified water. It heats the water to create steam which opens and unblocks your pores. It's great for eliminating blackheads!
Also, you can give yourself the spa treatment at home. Here's a good article on all the sorts of treatments people can use:

Best of luck for new, glowing skin! :)
A paste made out of cornstarch and water is great--it dries out zits and the very slight graininess of the starch will exfoliate your skin when you wash it off. Use it as a mask--apply and keep on until it turns completely white.
Blackheads are caused by pores blocked with oil. We tend to believe that the black appearance is due to dirt, but in fact, it is simply oil or sebum which has turned black due to the oxidizing effect.??
While it is easy to clean the surface of our face, making sure that our pores are clean takes a little more work than just a perfunctory splash of water.?
?
Removal strips?
Blackhead removal strips are readily available at all major departmental stores. All you need to do is to wet the strip, place the strip on your nose, which is where blackheads are very likely to form, leave it on till it dries completely, and peel it off.?
?
Steam
You could also try removing blackheads yourself, but make sure you are gentle, or you may cause scarring. Steam your face for around ten minutes with a steamer, or by placing your face over a vessel of boiling water if you do not have a steamer. Form a tent with your towel over your head and around the bowl, to trap the steam. This opens and softens pores, and makes the blackheads easier to remove. Then take a wad of cotton in both hands, and use the cotton to gently squeeze out the blackheads.?
?
Exfoliate
Make sure the blackheads don?t reappear by exfoliate your skin with a face scrub, to get rid of dead skin so they do not block pores. Use it on your nose, or wherever you have blackheads. Scrub the area gently. Do not be too harsh as you may cause further damage.?
While you need exfoliate your face only twice a week, many women have reported that their blackheads on their nose have totally disappeared after they started using a face scrub on their nose on a daily basis.?
?
Homemade face scrub
You could purchase a face scrub from the market, or make one at home. Beat up the white of an egg, and add a tablespoon of salt. Apply to your face with your fingertips, massaging gently. Wait for it to dry, and wash off with warm water.?
You could also make a scrub by adding salt to a lemon and honey mixture. After scrubbing your face, apply a little yogurt to soothe your complexion and balance the pH level.?
?
Prevention
These are temporary remedies, and blackheads will keep re-appearing unless you target the source. Make sure you keep your skin clean, by cleansing, toning and moisturizing it twice a day.?
Do not apply make up if your face is sweating. Always clean your face before applying make-up.?
Make sure you wash off all traces of makeup before turning in for the night. Never, ever go to bed with make-up still on, as it contributes to blocking pores, and will lead to pimples and blackheads.?
Avoid using oil-based make-up if you have oily skin and are prone to developing blackheads.
I've always heard that witch hazel works on blackheads. And I know this sounds funny, but if you put toothpaste on a zit overnight, that can help as long as it's not a really stubborn one.
If you're in a rush and your pimple is red and inflamed, you can put ice on it, which will decrease the swelling of the skin and reduce the redness. Just be careful not to burn your skin with the ice or you'll have more problems!
white toothpaste (not the gel kind) has drying agents that can clear up pimples fast. witch hazel will also do the trick!
I use clay. it pulls out all the impurities of your skin and is all natural no dyes or perfumes to aggravate the skin. There is also a recipe for a fruit and vegatable facial. Try them they work.
The recipes are at the web site below.
Good luck
Peace

how about better prevention, wash your face, stay away from chocolate, greasy foods, candy, etc.
duct tape will remove blackheads from your nose, other than that ,dunno.
pop zit push down you may also use q-tips. push until you see some blood just once or twice no more because u might irritate the area because a zit is an infection in the skin. After apply some toothpaste let it sit and the paste is to minimize size. Hope this helped As for black heads i have no idea sorry.
Cleanse your face with unboiled milk, gently rub a coarse cloth dipped in milk to remove the blackheads. Steam your face with herbs like lavender, lemon peel and mint leaves added to the water and let the skin soak up its goodness.
