yea they are dumb. if you need to get rid of black heads, do this...



put a towel around your head and let it drape over you as you lean over a pot of boiling water. let the steam hit your face so that your pores open up real good. do that for a few minutes until your face is sweating and you can feel them opening up. then go to the sink and use St. Ives Apricot Scrub (like $4 at target) and scrub real good in the bad areas like in your nose cracks and stuff. then wash off with cold water to close up the pores. you can finish off with an astringent too to get ALL the the dirt and oil off your face. then put on a light moisturizer and voila'! you just got a facial.

I used to have some of the Apricot Scrub. That shit takes forever to get off your face. Works well though. I will try the face heating technique.

i actually prefer to sit on the bathroom counter in front of the medicine cabinet mirror and pick my blackheads instead. well that's how i start off...then i do that method. when u go to a spa for a facial it's actually painful. they pick your zits and your face is all blotchy and red when you leave. i think i'll do it myself and save the $90!

DO NOT use st ives apricot scrub on your face, it is way too harsh.
Also noxema is way too rich, and can actually cause breakouts.

Best thing for your face is to start with a professional facial. And i know that they are more expensive, but buy the facial cleanser, toner, exfoliant, and possibly a moisturizer at the salon, its not that bad spending more because you never need to use that much at one time, and they last a lot longer.

all those products available at the stores always contain perfumes, dyes, or other harsh crap that actually make your skin's condition worse.

Ive had the facial, have been using the products, and my skin has never been better than it is now.

thats just my advice

Originally posted by Orbax Nice skin: Get in warm shower. It opens up the pores. Shower for a few minutes for steam and water to take effect. Gentle cleanser such as Aveeno face wash to get surface layer of oils and stuff off. then I use Noxeema Facial scrub with microbeads to exfoliate (gently! too hard rubs off too much skin and itll clog pores more when pores cant close for a day and get filled with dirt and then skin grows back and they close!) then wash off with warm water. Get out of shower. Shave with Aveeno moisturizing shaving gel. Wash face with cold cold water to close up all the pores so dirt doesnt get in. use a SMALL amount of aveeno daily moisturizer and skin tone evener with some water and spread over face. pat dry with towel use Adidas aftershave on shaved parts. re apply moisturizer as needed during the day but remember to get excess off! also for better lips try some medicated lip balm! oh and if you have really oily skin try a nice St.Ives hydroxy peel off masque at night...not too often though like 2x a week

reminds me of that scene in American Psycho when he's in the shower.

great tips btw
