Biore nose strips! the one with tea tree oil and witch hazel. those work well. i've also noticed since i have been doing that, i have been blackhead free (thanks acctuane!) but they got alot out & thanks to acctuane threy haven't come back!

Exfoliating helps tons. I had really bad blackhead problem, then I exfoliated and now it's just plain....gone.

thanks for the replies guys

i heard nose strips actually made the problem worse as they opened up all the pores on your nose and so left more open to clogging

any thoughts on this?

Pore strips contain the same stuff as hairspray and we all know that hairspray clogs pores. So yes those strips pull the crap out but they cause more so you think you have to buy more strips and so on. You can use baking soda to exfoliate or one of those gentle scrubs on the market (not like ST. Ives crap)....don't do it too often or you'll aggravate the situation.
