What I usually do is steam my face over hot water for about five minutes. After you're done, pat your face dry and apply a clay masque like Queen Helen Mint Julep Masque (about $2.99 at any store) and wait until it dries, usually 10-15 minutes. Once it's dry, rinse it off with warm water and put the pore strip on your nose. They should come off. What happened was the steaming water opened your pores and the clay masque, as it dried, did a suction action on your skin, drawing the blackheads to the surface.

If all else fails, buy a blackhead extractor. However, this is (in most cases) a metal object, so you want to use it when your skin is soft and steamed, like while you're in the shower.

Whatever you do, don't force anything. You don't want permanent damage. Don't use your fingernails right against your skin (you can wrap your fingers in tissue or around a washcloth) and always, always try to do extractions after steaming your face or after a hot shower.

I mentioned it was alot of work, didn't I?

Best thing I've found is to pre-treat you skin by holding a hot flannel for a couple of minutes then carefully squeeze either side, don't keep on doing it if nothing happens as that what makes your skin look blotchy and red.

Hope this helps =)
