Having blackheads is one common and annoying problem. They are unattractive and sometimes hard to get rid off. I’m not sure bout you guys but i think blackheads looove appear around the nose area. Correct me if i’m wrong but that’s how it is for me.

Anyway, i got these babies here a couple of weeks ago to try out.

Oxy has a whole range of products for blemish prevention. The ones i’ve got here is specially targeted for blackheads. Getting rid of blackheads takes some effort, and i believe these products can help.

First up, the oil control cleansing wipes. Pretty much like your average wet tissue, minus the strong fragrance some wet tissues have. However, what i like bout this one here is the ingredients. Menthol for that cool refreshing feel and aloe extracts to repair acne prone skin.

All focused on preventing blemishes and controlling excess sebum secreted by the skin.

It removes make up rather efficiently too. Always be gentle while removing make up, wouldn’t wanna rub the skin too hard and cause sagging and such. Ugh! Be patient :)

Next, cleanse face with the blackhead clearing wash. It has Jojoba microbeads to exfoliate the skin – clearing blackheads and preventing new ones from forming.

I have to admit that i kinda like this one here. It smells clean, fresh, and a little lemony. Though i don’t see any lemon listed in the ingredients. My face felt a lot cleaner and fresher after using this wash, not to mention that it doesn’t dry out the skin too.

Ohhh one thing bout blackheads. Here’s a tip, have a hot shower. The steam from the hot water will open up the pores. Then, use a nose pore strip to get rid of those disgusting buggers from the nose!

Cause when the pores are open, the easier it is to remove all the blackheads and dirt from the pores. Don’t forget to read the instructions on how to use the pore strip though.

It takes about 10 to 15 minutes, standard time. But DON’T fall asleep.. or get carried away with whatever you’re doing. Cause things might get ugly if you do. Trust me i’ve been there. And it wasn’t good.

Gulp.

The robe is from La Senza, by the way.

Anyway while waiting for that pore strip to dry, you can check out Oxy’s cute site. I’m liking the whole classroom thing. Makes me wanna scribble on a blackboard.

They have this game going on called the Class Attack.

I even created my own class room. Join me cause my class is nice and blue :)

Prizes to be won if you join my classroom, hehe

Had some spare time so i even customized my own wallpaper, haha

It kills time and rewards you. Two birds, one stone. Just don’t get too carried away, you still got that pore strip there! Finish off by applying toner and moisturizer after removing the pore strip. Oxy has them toner and moisturizer, one complete set!

Best part, it’s affordable and easily obtainable from any leading pharmacy. Now you’re good to go :)
