Blackhead Extractor

You might have heard to use a "blackhead extractor" to get rid of your blackheads, but what is it?

It turns out that is quite simple. Good extractors are made out of stainless steel or a metal that does not rust or react with the oil on your face. That way it will last a long time and require little maintenance. It is shaped a bit like a pencil with a gripping surface in the middle.

At each end you will have two different kinds of loops. A wire-loop, and a flatter loop at the other end. The wire loop is used for getting rid of the blackheads and the flatter loop for whiteheads.

All you have to do for blackheads is position the wire loop AROUND the blackhead and press gently. The pressure created around the blackhead will cause it to simply 'pop' out! Very simple and efficient.
