how to remove white/black heads?

[kwokwc]

Hi,


I am currently using a green tea masque that is for deep cleansing and I find it effective in controlling the black head at my nose. This product is by BeautiControl (under Tupperware Singapore). The retail price is S$42.00.

After putting a bit on the face, wet the hands and massage for about 2mins. It has a warming effect which is similar to the effect as that of a ‘facial steamer’. It deep cleanses and improve blood circulation. I also know of people who use it on other parts of the body like the tummy (for slimming) and areas with stretch marks.

Personally I like this product a lot. I let some of my friends tried and all comments are very good.

I used to have them before but they are gone after childbirth... :?

You can try applying egg white soaked up in a cotton pad over affected areas and wait for it to dry... Then peel the cotton upwards and whoala!

Yup, plain raw egg white..the smell sure not fantastic but do remember to do a small patch test first oki..

If you apply a thicker layer, the 'pulling power' will be better but will take a while to dry..I cheat by sitting in front of the fan..
Guess the nose patches for sale works the same way.. with much less hassle.. I prefer the egg patch cause it smooths the skin too..
Do remember to close those pores after you 'empty' them.. toner or ice water does the job..

auntie M, need to steam the face to open the pores first or not? :?

auntieM,

I’m tempted to try the eggwhite remedy! Do you see the white/black stuff stuck to the eggwhite after peeling it off?

[auntieM]

Yes, do steam your face first.. and wipe your face dry before application.

I guess results would vary.. It worked well for me and can see those yakky stuff all stuck to the cotton pad when you are done..
the cotton pad will end up really stiff when dry, so pull upwards and for those stubborn 'heads', use a tweezer and gently 'clip' out..

ya man! thank you very much! i will try that during the weekend!

[auntieM]

Hope it works for you ladies really.. ..do bear in mind the 'waiting' for cotton to dry can really test your patience...

Do hope to hear good news soon! Cheers!

Well Done auntieM. Impressive! :celebrate:


Really good way to do. Get to learn one more beauty knowledge.

I am just curious, after peeling out the cotton, will the smell of the egg still be lingering around the nose? Need to wash with water first before applying toner or ice to close the pores?

Just sharing and hope this works..

When the egg white's all dried up it would be easier washing off with ice water..since I cleanse my face before I start there is no need to use any cleanser. I don't recall any residue smell though..
It does make my skin smoother for a while quite like the aspirin mask people talk about. But some users complain about how aspirin is too strong and side effects of using that..so at least with the eggs it's safer..he hee..
