Question

I have blackheads in my t-zone and I can't get rid of them. Every time I use products to get rid of them my skin gets really sensitive dry and itchy. I don't have overly oily skin, in fact the oiliness doesn't bother me and I rarely get pimples.
— Holly

Answer

Try using a facial wash containing Glycolic Acid such as the Peter Thomas Roth Facial Wash. Glycolic Acid gently exfoliates and resurfaces skin and will instantly reduce blackheads.

Another great must-have is Joey New York Pure Pores Blackhead Remover and Pore Minimizer Gel. The fruit acids and organic botanicals gently remove blackheads, shrink and tighten large pores, and soak up surplus sebum. Finish with an oil-free moisturiser and you'll be good to go!

Both products are available at David Jones.
