Blackheads can be a persistent problem, affecting confidence and causing frustration. But fear not, as a popular Korean beauty blogger, MisoJeong, has shared a surprisingly easy solution.
Blackheads form when pores become clogged with dirt, dead skin cells, or excess makeup. Traditional treatments like acne patches can have drawbacks, such as premature aging and wrinkles.
MisoJeong’s method combines Vaseline and makeup remover oil to effectively remove blackheads. This hack has garnered over 12 million views.
Here’s how to try it:
To start, gather these ingredients:
5 cotton swabs
Vaseline (or alternative wax/fat moisturizer)
Cotton towel
Food wrap (15cm x 7cm)
Warm water
Makeup remover cotton pads soaked in rose water
Cleanser
Now, follow these steps:
Apply Vaseline to the affected area using a cotton swab.
Cover your nose with the pre-cut plastic wrap.
Dip the cotton towel in hot water, wring it dry, and apply it to your nose for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Remove the wrap and gently rub the area with a cotton swab to remove excess Vaseline.
Add makeup remover oil and massage the area to soften acne pores.
Emulsify with water and continue massaging.
Use a cotton swab to roll over the entire nose, removing blackheads.
Deeply cleanse your skin with a facial cleanser.
Use makeup remover cotton soaked in rose water to balance skin pH and tighten pores.
Some important notes:
Repeat the process as needed for severe blackheads.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent blackheads from returning.
Combine Vaseline with aloe vera gel for an alternative treatment.
