my mom taught me this way to get rid of your blackheads/whiteheads quickly and it really works! What you do is heat up some water, and place your face near the pot of water so when the steam of the hot water goes up it will go on your face. Believe it really works and its fast too. If you need me to explain in more detail i will be more then happy to.

Heres some tips about whiteheads.

First of all, the best tip I can give you is to leave them alone..Really. Sometimes when you try everything such as proactive and toothpaste (especially) it dries your skin out and makes it worse. It helps to put hot water on the corner of a washcloth and press it gently to the spot

My skin doesn't break out often, but my doctor always tells me to drink a lot of water to have clearer skin...so you might wanna try that. And also, I use clarasel face wash and I guess it helps. But like I said, my skin doesn't break out, so I'm not totally sure. But you might wanna try those two things, definately the water.

heres some stuff that causes it so you will kno

CAUSE OF WHITEHEADS

» Excessive exfoliation of skin cells contributes to the growth of milia. The dead skin cells quickly clog up the sebaceous follicles


» Some skin specialists believe some individuals produce sebum that is drier than normal. This creates an environment conducive to the formation of firm plugs. Such individuals would be more prone and have frequent and multiple blackheads and whiteheads. Sebum contributes to skin oils and people with dry sebum may have dry skin and this may be especially true of people with chronic whiteheads.


Looking for ways to get rid of or remove whiteheads?

An OTC topical medication is usually recommended for those people with whiteheads or mild acne. Apply the topical medicine directly onto the whiteheds and any other affected area of the skin.

You can’t get rid of whiteheads or blackheads overnight. It takes time. If used regularly, OTC topical medicines can be reasonably effective. Be patient. It might take 8 weeks or more before you will notice any difference in your skin. Most treatments would several weeks or even months before you can see any noticeable change.
