I am fortunate that I don't really get pimples - just a couple in really odd places when I'm about to get my period.
It's a different story for blackheads and whiteheads. I don't think anyone in the world is immune to these two. No matter how flawless a person may appear, there will always be several of them lurking somewhere...
Mine are predominantly located at the tip and sides of my nose but I also get a few on the apples of my cheeks and mustache area. :P
I have tried many blackhead eliminating products but none of them really worked, exfoliating also doesn't help much. The only solution really was to get a facial and have them pricked (ouch!) I really hate the painful contrast of pricking against the nice facial massage that comes beforehand...it's also quite pricey.
That brings us to Mario Badescu's Silver Powder:

| Mario Badescu's Silver powder is pretty affordable at just P745 for a large 29ml pot. You get a lot of product for your money that will last you a long, long time. Key ingredients are Calcium Carbonate, Kaolin and Zinc Oxide. Yup, just 3, isn't that refreshing? No lengthy list of chemicals we don't understand. How it works: dip a wet cotton ball into the powder, leave for 10 minutes and remove with a toner. Alternate method: Put a little bit of the powder in a separate container and mix in with a little water. The consistency should be that of clay/plaster.  |

Apply mixture onto problem areas of your face (ie. where you have excessive oil, clogged pores and blackheads) and wait 10 minutes. |

The result is noticeably fairer and clearer skin with a more even tone just after one application: |

If you have a severe blackhead/acne problem, continue to use twice a week until all traces are gone then treat as a maintenance product and re-apply as needed. Some people even use it as mask or add a drop of tea tree oil to the mixture and leave overnight.
Mario Badescu's Silver Powder worked miracles on my skin, it was also non-drying even on areas of my face that weren't particularly oily (as you can see in the photo I applied it to most of my face). There was no negative reaction either. I highly recommend it and hope it works for you too!
The packaging also allows you to split the product between friends/sisters so I think that's another plus because it means that you can also split the cost.
Mario Badescu is available at the Beauty Source of all Rustans Department Stores nationwide.
