I have lots of blackheads around my nose and mouth.
I would like to know if i should squeeze them before starting with specific blackhead removers.
I have found that if i wash my face in hot water then using tissue i can squeeze the blackhead and it will push out. Is this safe for me to do.
Firstly we would not recommend you do this…
Whilst squeezing the blackhead out may seem like a good idea it can go horribly wrong, if the blackhead decides to go deeper into the skin you could be left with a hole that will never heal.
Use a facial scrub and they will clear up on there own. Using tissue will absorb essential oils from your skin and cause more problems down the line.
Hi,
Could you please answer the question below linking to this- “why when i squeeze a spot does it leave a dark smude on my face?”
Thanks,

We are not a 100% sure of your question.
By dark smudge from squeezing the spot do you mean dark red ?
What colour is your skin tone as this could effect the results you are mentioning.
One cause could be slight ruptures in tiny blood vessels just under the skin where you have applied pressure to get the puss out of the blackhead / spot.
