COMEDONE EXTRACTOR (BLACKHEAD REMOVER TOOL)

The comedone extractor can easily push blackhead- and whitehead-causing gunk out of your pores—if you use it properly.

This comedone extractor has a sharp point on one end that’s designed to create a SMALL opening in the blackhead if one isn’t easily accessible. This will open up the pore and allow whatever’s clogged to come out. 

How to Safely Use a Comedone Extractor

1. Apply a warm compress (such as a damp, warm washcloth) to the affected area to soften and open up the pore.
2. Clean the skin and the comedone extractor with anti-bacterial sanitiser or soap.
3. Position the wire loop on skin - do not apply too much pressure
4. Place the wire loop around the blackhead or white head. Press gently to extract the dead skin and sebum that’s clogging the pore. If nothing immediately comes out of the breakout, stop pressing and let it rest. If bleeding occurs, stop pressing. In this instance, it’s likely that the contents of the clogged pore have already come out and there’s nothing left, or the spot itself wasn’t ready to be popped. A little bruise may develop around the breakout from the pressure of the comedone extractor, which will go away on its own.
5. Gently wash your face with soap and water to remove any remaining bacteria from the surface of the skin. Avoid spot treatments, which can further irritate the skin. Wait until the following day to resume your normal skin-care routine.
