They are blackheads. Have you tried biore pore strips. I like those.

The brand is biore. They have all kinds of other products for pores now too. Kind of expensive though. They also have this metal thing. Hard to describe/explain idk exactly what it's called, but it helps you get rid of blackheads. It's a metal tool, fairly small, and has wholes on both ends. You push it on the blackheads to get them out. You could also just squeeze with your fingers. Gently though. Ewww, this stuff is so nasty...Lol.

Oh please. I don't believe that. Well, i'm lana, 25, I have 2 babies ages 2.5 and 11 mos, married 6 years. I used to be smart until I got too wrapped up in boys and messed up my school work. It's good that you won't be doing the same, I hope.

Hi
Well, boys probly wouldnt interfere with my school work, but I just get so jealous. My friends are so pretty and boys are attracted to them. But I guess its better that the boy I marry will like me for who I am. Its a bit early to talk about this now anyways. When I am older I will probly look back and thing about how dumb I was. (haha)

Yes you will. Plenty of time for that in the future. And you will have no regrets getting all your education out of the way, but may have regrets getting mixed up with boys. Well, i'm going to bed. Nice meeting you and talking with you. Take care. Ttyl.

Back to the original question.....

Get a pore vaccum. Strips only get rid of some of the blackheads only to reappear a couple of days later. I got a pore vaccum from panasonic, I cannot remember how much it was, but it was less than $50. It is awesome. If you use it once every couple of days, or like three times a week your nose will actually appear smaller. At least mine did, I know that sounds crazy, but if you think about it, it makes sense. I mean all of those little pores holding dirt and grime really can make your nose larger, swollen almost, but once you get it all cleaned out, it shrinks. Also, biore is expensive. Yeah the pore vaccum seems kind of expensive, but you only have to buy it once and keep using it, but the strips you have to keep buying. Give it a try. I think I got mine from drugstore.Com, but you could look on ebay too. Igia makes one, but most of their products are cheaply made, I trust panasonic. Plus, I have had mine for over a year now and have never had a problem with it.
