Blackheads can be frustrating and affect confidence. While acne patches are an option, long-term use can lead to wrinkles and aging. Thankfully, Korean beauty blogger MisoJeong has shared a surprisingly effective solution.
Blackheads form when pores clog with dirt, dead skin cells, or excess makeup. MisoJeong’s video, with over 12 million views, reveals a straightforward method using Vaseline and makeup remover oil.
Here’s what you’ll need:
5 cotton swabs
Vaseline or wax/fat moisturizer
Cotton towel
Food wrap (15cm x 7cm)
Warm water
Makeup remover cotton pads soaked in rose water
Cleanser
Follow these steps:
Apply Vaseline to the affected area using a cotton swab.
Cover with plastic wrap.
Dampen a cotton towel with hot water, wring it out, and apply 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 pores.
Emulsify with water and rub your nose to remove remaining Vaseline.
Use a cotton swab to roll over your nose, removing blackheads.
Deeply cleanse your skin with a facial cleanser.
Balance skin pH using makeup remover cotton soaked in rose water.
Some important notes:
This method may require multiple applications for severe blackheads.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including proper skin care, sunscreen, and a balanced diet, is crucial to prevent blackheads from returning.
Alternative combinations, such as Vaseline and aloe vera gel, can also be effective.
By following MisoJeong’s simple hack, you can effectively remove blackheads and regain radiant skin.
