Avoid squeezing

Whatever you do, never squeeze or pick your pimples. Popping or playing with the pimples no matter how careful and clean you are is a no. it always makes the pimples redder and bumpier for long. Not to mention it is also very painful. The mark left behind after squeezing isn’t permanent but it takes longer to fade.

 

Facials

Visit an esthetician who can professionally remove the blackheads during a facial. The facial helps open up the pores so they can be easily and painlessly removed. During a facial, your face is also clean which helps avoid infecting the open pores or spots where the blackheads were removed.

 

Skincare

When we talk of skincare, there is no one product for all. Use a mild cleanser for your face and avoid products with harsh chemicals. If you are allergic to a certain product, avoid it at all costs. Antibacterial cleaners such as benzoyl peroxide help reduce bacteria which sometimes cause acne.
