🧴 Method: Removing blackheads with Vaseline
🧾 You’ll need:

Vaseline (e.g., Vaseline®, not a scented cream)

Cling film

A clean towel

Cotton swab or facial tissue

Hot water

✅ Steps:

Cleanse your face thoroughly.

Use a mild cleanser to remove dirt and excess oil.

Apply a thick layer of Vaseline to the affected nose.

Concentrate on the areas with blackheads, usually on and around the tip of the nose.

Cover the nose with plastic wrap.

Press gently to trap the heat.

Place a warm, damp towel over the plastic wrap.

Leave it on for about 5–10 minutes. The steam will open the pores while the Vaseline will soften the skin.

Remove the towel and plastic wrap.
