I've tried everything for my black head, but all the kinds of strips that I've used make them worse. Is there anything that you can make to remove them?

Honestly, I'm prone to blackheads as well, and the pore strips really work for me. Aside from that, try a cleanser with salicylic acid, which works by dissolving the build up in pores and is gentler on your skin than Benzoyl peroxide. Also, if you can, invest in a Clarisonic or the Foreo Luna, which deliver sonic pulses into the skin that are designed to loosen the blackheads. The combination of the cleanser and the Clarisonic has been working amazingly for me.

Baking soda worked for me. Just mix it with water and make a paste, and scrub the area. Just don't be too rough or it will make the skin raw.

I'm going to recommend a cheap face masque from Sally's. it's Avocado&Grapefruit face masque. It's like $6. It gets rid of black heads with 2 uses. I love it. I have pretty clear skin but it will get rid of any breakout so effortlessly. (: it's a must have!!

Clarisonic! I use mine with the deep pore brush head. I know it is expensive but it really works. Btw don't expect a fairy touch after the first use. I saw the results 2 months after I started using it.

I too use the Clarisonic and feel like it helps a lot, but it is a pretty big commitment in terms of price. I would instead recommend Origins Clear Improvements charcoal mask. I have only been using it for a short time now (would have been longer/a little more frequently but I'm now on prescriptions medicines for acne so I have to be a little more cautious because of irritation.) but I use it a couple times a week and it helps a good bit. It's a little pricey but nowhere near as much as a Clarisonic, and I do feel like it's one of the best masks I've used. My skin feels very clean after using it. My advice is to definitely follow it's instructions and use it after you open your pores with warm water. I have tried it before doing that or after and it definitely works best on damp skin with the pores opened.
