🧖 Step-by-Step Blackhead Removal Guide
1. Cleanse & Prep
Start with a gentle, oil-balancing cleanser. Then steam your face for 5–10 minutes to soften pore obstructions.
2. Expert Extraction
Use metal extractors (loops or angled ends). After disinfecting, place the loop over a clog and apply gentle pressure until it releases. If it resists, don’t force it—re-steam and try again later.
3. Post-Extraction Care
Cleanse again, then apply products with niacinamide and green tea to soothe the skin and decrease redness.
4. Weekly Deep Care
Use a clay or charcoal mask to further purify pores, then apply a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF in the morning.
