A GREAT PROGRAM TO GET RID OF BLACKHEADS!

I have used tons of products for my blackheads, and trust me if you have seen my pictures in my other thread you know just how bad my problem is.

I have found that Dans Bp does help illuminate the blackheads and makes them lighter in appearance, lately i have been using Paulas choice 2% BHA right before i apply my Bp and it has been working great, but i still have those blackheads there! Some that i dont think anything can reach!!!

So i have made this program to fit my own needs, and i would really like people to help out and add products and just be there to give much needed advice, i really think this one might work really well!



So for my blackhead program you will need

- cleanser
- Dans Bp
- AhA/BHA toner or gel
- toothbrush or real exfoliating brush
- Deep Cleansing Pore Strips or The BLAKhead Masque or Elmer's white glue
- moisturizer

I like THE BLACKHEAD MASQUE..http://blackheadnomore.blogspot.com/2008/06/blakhead-masque.html

It does not get ALL of my blackheads, but it does get a bunch of the small ones and any bit helps!

some guy on yahooanswers said he uses elmers, might as well try...haha

"Believe or not, plain old Elmer's white glue. Spread a thin layer on your face an let it dry and peel it off and wash with a facial cleanser made for your skin type. I have been doing it twice a week for years and I rarely get a blackhead on my face. And I am over 50."

So basically just use the basic Dans Regimen tactics.

- Wash face with warm/hot water, then add cleanser and work into lather

- (KEY POINT)use the toothbrush or exfoliating brush to gently rub in a circular motion all over your face, and pay attention to the areas with blackheads.

- Rinse away, and let your face dry before applying the BHA/AHA

- Once dry apply the Bp

- once that is dry apply the moisturizer

this is a Am/Pm routine, and i would only use the brush once a day.

Use the pore strips/ masque 2 times a week....

i think this will generally work because of the key item...the brush exfoliating the skin is an important part. Dead skin cells shed naturally every 3 weeks, exfoliation with a body brush may help along the process and help rejuvenate the appearance of the skin.

what do you all think?

skin really oily on regimen

Does anyone else get oily skin on the regimen. Although my skin is improving, and i think Dans regimen is the BEST thing i have tried. I am getting oily skin, well my skin is naturally REALLY REALLY oily. Although i use Dans regimen 2 times a day; mornings around 7:00, and afternoons around 5 or 6pm. I can tolerate the oiliness and its not that bad...


do any of you guys use the regimen more than 2 times a day. I am thinking that using it 3 or even 4 times a day for people with really oily skin would be better than 2 times a day?

My blackheads...BIG PROBLEM PICS

Hey guys, i just wanna say this is a great site. Been looking around and saw tons of people getting the help they need.

Anyway, i just wanted to post my acne, and see if anyone can help me figure out what to do, and in turn maybe help someone else that comes along and has the same problem.

I am 19 years old, and have had these damn blackheads since i was 12 years old. During high school they peaked and you could really notice them. They keep staying the same size, and are just so hard to get rid of, they are really deep in the pores of my skin and all over my face. They also cause and sometimes turn into painful acne bumps and stuff.


- My skin is generally very oily, if i don't wash it regularly it can become oily within the hour. Almost like someone dropped a gallon of vegetable oil on my face...hahah I also have big pores, which i think is genetic because my parents (mother) also has big pores except she doesn't have blackheads.

right now i have stopped using any kind of acne cream or medication. I just wash my face with a oil free cleanser and it works great on keeping my skin in control and not breaking out allot, but i still do but not as much as i could have. I also use this blackhead masque that i got from Korea about 1-2 times a week.


it gets probably the easier smaller ones out, but cannot CANNOT get the other ones out.


I have tried proactive,clean and clear products, Clearasil, pads, and even those nose strips. these suckers are so hard to get rid of!
