Hi dolls, my name is Megan. I'm a bit new on here, and I heard from a friend that this site is really great for all things beauty.

I have a lot of blackheads (I'm 12, and ever since age 11 I've noticed my skin gets rather oily, even though I wash it twice a day.) on my nose, and I've tried a few things (steaming my face, masks, exfoliating, even this stuff my aunt gave me called Fostril.), but nothing seems to work.

I don't really wear makeup, just a foundation, pressed powder, and lip balm.

What are some recommended facial cleansers? (I was using baking soda, which helped get rid of the occasional zit, but not to much with my blackheads. I've been using this one by Philosophy, I think it's called Purity?) Any moisturizers? (I'm currently using SPF 60 by Shiedso.) Face masks?

TY for taking the time to answer, it means a lot.

Have a great day! <3

Xx, Megan.

Try crushing uncoated aspirin in a cup and rubbing it on you face! Keep it there for 15-20 mins! Then wash it off! Then try something with benzecline acid in it to spot treat and keep it on all night! You will see a major difference in your skin overnight! Also drink a TON of water! 4-5 bottles and day and lots of protein to keep the the oil and acne away! Hope that helps! If it gets bad enough you might want to consider a trip to the dermatologist (:

I would recommend carrying around oil blotting strips with you to blot the occasional greasy nose. They really work when you're on the go. Good luck!
