Last night I applied some BP 2.5% as usual to my face but I had a whitehead on my nose so I applied BP all over my nose.

I woke up, washed it off etc. My skin was very tight and dry as usual but before I put on the moisturizer I saw a very dark, obvious blackhead on my nose.

I grabbed some tissue paper and squeezed it. To my surprise it came out effortlessly. I tried again on some more nose blackheads and with a slight squeeze they were all popping out. Usually when I try to get rid of blackheads on my nose its painful, difficult and only the tip of the sebum comes out.

Im not sure if the dryness (oil free) of my nose made it easier to grip or something but it was a hell of a lot easier. BP closes pores right? I'm not sure why this happened or if it was just luck.

I might try this again tonight/tomorrow and see what happens.

I find when my skin is dry blackheads are much, much easier to extract. Like you said, it's probably due to the pores being tighter.
