Alright, let's get somethings straight first, I'm 15, male, and know nothing about skin care (so don't laugh). What the hell are these little black things on my nose? Black heads? How do I get em out?
How come I keep getting pimples? And how do I get rid of em? |

We're not laughing! Know that your questions are always welcome here on the Forum!
The "little balck things" on your nose are known as blackheads. They're caused by excess sebum (oil), dirt, & grime being trapped under the skin by dead skin cells.
No biggie.
First, let's recommend a good cleanser, keeping it simple! A few good ones: MD Formulations Cleanser with Glycolic Acid, Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic 3% Facial Wash, or Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel. I think that the cleansers with glycolic acid are great for skin such as your's, as they gently exfoliate on a dialy basis.
All skin needs moisture (even oily skin) - try Dermalogica's Oil Control Lotion, Active Moist, or Phytomer's Nutri-T Anti-Shine Moisturizing Fluid. For the occasional blemish, spot-treat the area with Dermalogica's Clearing Booster. |
