If battling blackheads is your ongoing struggle, you’re not alone! Personally, it feels like I’ve been dealing with blackheads forever. While I might be exaggerating a bit, the truth is I’ve been combating these pesky blemishes since my pre-teen years, and let me tell you, they’re not the easiest to bid farewell to. For those fortunate souls unfamiliar with blackheads, they are essentially hair follicles or pores clogged with a combination of dead skin cells and sebum—an oily substance naturally produced by the skin. Despite not wrestling with full-blown acne, aside from occasional breakouts, I haven’t been fortunate enough to escape the persistent presence of blackheads.
