A lot of people are already talking about losing weight, type of diet pills they should take (there is a new one called alli diet pill) or what is the best diet they should follow. Bikinis and beach towels are already out of the closet (not mine) because there are the tan fanatics that as soon as the first warmer days say hello, they go immediately to the beach to get tanned.

I’m not a tan fan because I have a very light skin, I have a lot of moles and as melanoma already attacked a close friend I’m very protective when it comes to sun exposure.

I have blackheads and my son is starting to have blackheads. You might be wondering, what are blackheads?

Well, blackheads is a type of acne vulgaris that usually “attacks” the nose. Although some people believe that they appear due to lack of hygiene that is not true. They appear due to the excess of oil in the skin.

How can we get rid of blackheads?

Usually the body takes care of it itself but there are some products that help to remove them. An exfoliant, an adherent strap or a very efficient home remedy that consists in getting some water vapors on the face to open the skin pores and then squeeze just a little bit with a towel and usually most of them come out.

If you have blackheads and want a professional opinion, talk to a dermatologist or with a pharmaceutic.
