effing blackheads

[HonestyBox]

What is the point of them? Does anyone have a solution to prevent them coming back after squeezing. My skin is much better in hotter weather than this or in winter.

oil cleansing method

flannel method

Is the flannel method just scrubbing with a flannel?

And what is the oil cleansing method?

How long does the ocm need before it takes effect Mrs B?
I tried it for 2 weeks but saw no difference - would love to hear it works.

Microdermabrasion.
Mine have all gone.
Not cheap or painless though.

flannel method is indeed taking cleanser off with a flannel. made a massive difference to my skin,. also Boots Time Delay microdermabrasion (but DIY not salon)

Food for thought, thanks. What is microdermabrasion? Is it like a chemical peel? I'm guessing it is a surgical procedure.

I do a combination of oil cleansing and flannel method but sometimes I still have a lot of blackheads.

You need to cleanse with a product called eau micellaire, which lots of the French brands do. It is fabulously successful in France. I have very sensitive skin and have found that eau micellaire both reduces blackheads and makes skin more moisturised/less wrinkled.

It's like being sanded- the intensity is increased each visit, which isn't unpleasant, but not exactly pleasant IYKWIM.
It lasts about 20 mins- and the difference in my skin after 6 sessions is amazing. More radiant, fewer visible lines and clear pores.

I've started using the Olay Regenerist range recently and the cleanser is a 2 sided cloth that lathers up, one side is rough for exfoliation and blackheads and the other is smoother so more gentle. I'm really chuffed with the way my skin looks, even the pores on my nose look much much better and they are usually awful ...
