Stop Squeezing! Here’s the Safer Way to Beat Blackheads

“Stop Squeezing! Here’s the Safer Way to Beat Blackheads”

We get it—the urge to squeeze that blackhead is real. But did you know improper extraction can damage skin, spread bacteria, and even leave scars?

Instead of popping, try chemical exfoliants like BHA (salicylic acid) that go deep into the pore and break up the debris gently. Use a warm compress or steam to soften skin before applying a treatment.

Pore strips can be satisfying, but use them sparingly—they may irritate sensitive skin. Better yet, opt for a clay or charcoal mask to gradually unclog pores over time.

And remember: if a blackhead won’t budge, don’t force it. Let skincare and patience do the work. Or visit a licensed professional for a safe extraction.
