You never get rid of white/blackheads "for good". You have to get rid of them, then maintain a regimen to minimize their recurrence. You have a few options that I've used- Pore Strips, Blackheadmask-Before you use any method, I would recommend that you steam your face first. Be careful though. Get a pot, fill it half way with hot water, get it to boil.Shut off the stove, and place your face above the steam. Again, be careful. You can also get a towel, soak it in hot water, and cover your face with it. Just make sure it's not hot enough to burn your skin. Then, do whatever treatment you want to do. After the treatment/strip/mask- Rinse your face with cold water, then close your pores with either 1.salicylic Acid, or 2. Benzoyl Peroxide/acne medication 3. Sulfur ( I use de la cruz 10% but it is very drying) 4. Tea Tree oil (I'm going to be trying this one soon) to kill the bacteria that causes them in the first place. Hope this helps.

Individuals of any age may have issues with blackheads on their skin, but the majority of it is actually an issue during the young.
Natural remedies to remove blackheads on your skin:
Lemon Juice: It is one of the most effective ingredients for removing blackheads. Mix a few drops of lemon water with salt. Apply this mixture on black heads. After the 20 min wash your face with half heated water.
Tomato: Tomatoes have natural germ killing properties that dry up blackheads. Mash a small tomato and apply it on blackheads before going to sleep at night and wash your face with water in the morning.
Green tea: It is also helps you to remove blackheads. Make a mixture of 1 teaspoon of green tea and little water. Apply this paste on your affected area up to 2-3 min. Rinse it with half heated water.

I use sugar! And if you already have face wash you can mix some sugar into the wash to make a face scrub. Works great, don't scrub too hard. And when you go to the store you should pick up some Biore nose strips. I swear by them!
