Blackhead remover tool- How the fuck do I use this?

46 replies

summertimefeelings · 12/08/2015 16:11

My avon order has just arrived and I ordered a blackhead remover for the big fat blackhead on DH's back .

This is it: avonshop.co.uk/product/skincare/clearskin/clearskin-blackhead-remover.html

But it looks like an implement of torture and I have no idea how to use it. I've looked for an online tutorial but I can't find a good one.

MNers, please help me!

Oh my days! Those videos are amazing. I'm going to get one of these blackhead tools to have a go at DS's nose. And I'm going to show him these videos like a PP did. DP lets me pick over him regularly. It's very therapeutic and he enjoys it Grin.

Oh. God. Why.

Arghhhh.

Video...

Noooooo

WanderingTrolley1 · 14/08/2015 18:23

That video is awesome.

But, the Dr isn't wearing any kind of gloves, which is gross.

I live squeezing blackhead, in growing hairs, spots etc.

My phone won't let me view that video because it has inappropriate content!

After watching that my face has settled into the classic disgust setting normally reserved for changing the cat litter Shock

I can't help wondering if Sandra Lee's methods lead to a lot of unsightly scarring. The way she was slicing away at the person in the video upthread was quite disturbing.

I was toying with getting a remover tool thingy for my nose. But since changing my skin care routine I don't get anything like the blackheads I used to. Every silver lining has a cloud Sad

The Body shop sell a good blackhead tool

Georgethesecond · 15/08/2015 21:03

Closer - what's the new routine?

CloserToFiftyThanTwenty · 15/08/2015 21:14

At night - hot cloth cleanse with Pond's cucumber cleanser, followed by cleanser removed with cotton wool

In the morning - cleanser removed with cotton wool and Nivea oil free moisturizing fluid

It has calmed my irritable skin down no end and stopped my pores getting clogged and turning into blackheads

Georgethesecond · 15/08/2015 21:40

Ah thanks. So no moisturiser at night?

Elledouble · 15/08/2015 22:01

Oh man. I wish I had one of those tools and someone with a spotty back to use it on Envy

HemanOrSheRa · 16/08/2015 10:05

My blackhead removing tool arrived yesterday. I ordered it as soon as I'd finished watching the videos upthread Grin. DP let me at his face and back with it last night. It was lovely .

A sporner's idea of a romantic night in Heman Grin

HemanOrSheRa · 16/08/2015 10:27

Grin Val. We did have a minor spat when DP shouted "Use your nails, use your nails, that thing is going to leave weird marks all over me". I rapped him on the head with my tool and told him to settle down. It was lovely after that. So efficient and satisfying Grin.

MaryBerrysEyelashes · 16/08/2015 11:30

Have any of you looked at why you're all so prone to them? I don't think o know major people afflicted

Valsoldknickers · 16/08/2015 11:57

Mary I don't reckon we are all prone, that's why some of us have to satisfy our urges with Dr. Vikram and Sandra Lee videos!

HemanOrSheRa · 16/08/2015 12:44

Sadly I am not prone to blackheads or blocked pores. Apart from a PMS breakout of those horrible, painful whoppers that don't even have the good grace to come to a head Angry.

DP, on the other hand, is blessed with quite greasy, olive skin. Sort of swarthy looking Confused. And he's a builder/HGV driver atm so gets covered in all sorts of dust and dirt which block his pores and allows me to satisfy my sporning urges Grin.

CloserToFiftyThanTwenty · 16/08/2015 14:20

George - I'm not currently moisturizing at night, partly because it is so hot here that I was waking up with a face covered in goop..! But I think I need to re-introduce it at some point soon

Georgethesecond · 16/08/2015 18:25

I see. Not at all hot here
