DIY Removing Whiteheads/Blackheads in Last Minutes

Hey guys!
so it's been quite a long time I don't post a new post since I'm really busy this past few weeks practicing for closing event and handling the event's maid cafe .
so now I'm not going to post a review but a simple DIY I guess? Sorry for this post I don't insert any picture.
well this is a tip for you that got white/blackheads that pop/sprouting on the surface when you're in hurry and don't have time to use/wear nose strip/mud mask.
to press it until it completely pops will only makes your nose red.
This is a quick easy steps with only 3 things that you already have!
1.Toner
2.Cotton pad
3.Index fingers

So here's the steps:
1.pour some toner onto the cotton pad
2.Gently pat/spread on your nose
3.Point the cotton pad with your index finger (like when you're going to press zits with tissue)
4.Scratch gently the area where the white/blackheads are sprouting/popping half on the surface
5.Do it until it's completely removed
6.For stubborn blackheads,it will popping 3/4 where you can pick it easily,or gently press it. This scratching with toner is not effective to remove the blackheads,but it helps pulling out the blackheads to the state it can be pull by fingers or press it. Here I press with my bare index fingers and my nose is less red (you knownhow easily my face gets red!)
7.After all is clean,swap some fresh toner that you've poured to a new cotton pad on your nose
8.Then use a product that contains alcohol/with pore shrinking properties skincare (not a face primer) .

Here I use :
The Face Shop Clean Face Blemish Zero Clarifying Toner
Skin Food Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Emultion

So here's my tip for last minute clean nose. So do you have a tip to remove white/blackheads?

SKIN FOOD FRESH APPLE SPARKLING PORE EMULTION REVIEW

Hey guys! As I promised I'll post a lot of reviews after I bought a memory card reader. So it's a countdown 1 hour to go to welcome new year 2014

So now I'll review SKIN FOOD FRESH APPLE SPARKLING PORE LOTION
so, to inform you that I've a lot of blackheads and a mask,pack,etc can't remove my stubborn blackheads. So the only way is to press it -_- and it leaves big red bumps until the next few days and those horribly big pores. So I come across to this product when I ran out of my gel lotion (Etude House AC Clinic Daily Gel Lotion Trial version) . I want to re-purchase it but I thought I need to try something new.
So,here's the swatches

1.The front. It made of glass I think,and it's quite bulky with silver cap. My mom tried to use it and one day she accidentally move and the bottle fell off very hard! I've bad feeling if that sound is from this bottle (I'm in different room) and later when I checked , it's this bottle that fell but luckily it didn't crack! WOW
But the cap is cracked and there's a pressed side

 2

 3. The top of the cap. So cute ~

 4. It has a small hole to prevent "over pour" ~

 5&6. The texture. A little bit sticky

 7.With flash

 8.Without flash

9.Fully absorbed. You can see it's a little bit shimmery on flash on the right side

















So,since it's in emultion type,it's has quite 'thick' consistency unlike water, quite sticky too.
It contains alcohol (most of acne /pore treatment products contain alcohol in big amount), so I don't apply it on my whole face,only on my forehead,nose,and any place with big pores.
Even my forehead is not that sensitive,when I applied it my skin turns red especially if I put too much. But it will fade soon.
But it works miracle! My pore is less bigger,and less bumps and redness within overnight!
So I don't need to worry about big pores/bumps/redness after pulling out my blackheads LOL

CONCLUSION
PROS:
1.Strong packaging's materials!
2.Reduce big pores/bumps/redness overnight!

CONS:
1.Contains alcohol
2.Hard to pour the liquid
3.Quite sticky
4.Bulky packaging

Etude House AC Clinic Trial Kit Revew SECOND THOUGHT

Ola! I'm back!Got problem with my internet again but thank God it's over!
So, you guys might have read my review about EH AC Clinic Trial before (you can check it here)
and that time I've been using it for maybe about 1month or so and I loved the Cleanser and the Toner most!

But now I'll give you the review of my SECOND THOUGHT after using it for 4MONTHS and pardon me if I didn't insert any picture because you can see it on my first review

A. AC CLINIC DAILY ACNE FOAM CLEANSER

Yes I love it...BUT after using it for a moment after my review my skin got DRIED UP.
Sure it really cleanse well and give that 'fresh' feeling so it's normal it it gives 'TIGHT" sensation after cleansing. But it's not just that,my skin from oily become soooo dry and some of it half peeled so it's a BIG NO if I use BB cream because it really shows the dry patch

For some people this cleanser is GREAT because they use cream,moisturizer,etc but I'm still new that time. I don't use any moisturizer or cream or whatever except AC Clinic Gel Lotion that I got from the pouch.

I suggest this product is worth it for OILY SKIN TYPE and don't because you think your skin is oily you don't need any moisturizer. BIG WRONG! Trust me I've experienced it

I think I used up all for 2months or so

Conclusion
PROS
1. Cleanse well
2. It has active ingredients to prevent and heal acnes
3. Fresh feeling when cleansing
4.Good for oily skin type
5.A little goes along the way
6.Easy to lather

CONS
1.It gives tight sensation after using it so I must splat my face with some moisturizer immediately
2.For long term usage it really dries my skin

Ratings

Will I repurchase?
NO. There's way much better cleanser out there and I'll try some

B. AC CLINIC DAILY TONER

I admit it's good to remove the dirt that still left on my face after cleansing,and it gives a cool sensation and my face feels like FRESH. But sadly after long term usage some spot of my face irritates and bumps appear on the right and left side of my nose (not the nose) like someone just slapped me hard and also it's red like rash or something !It can appears when I'm toning,or right after toning,or.. a few moment after toning!

And it really helps to DRYING my skin! OMG!

At first I thought my skin tends to dry and irritates since I'm using the BB cream from this line daily (the first time I used this I only use the BB cream sometimes,but later when I got a job I'm using this almost everyday)
but still I'm using the toner and BB cream. It continues until the state of BLEEDING !

Yes,it's true! Some area of my face show the veins,and sometimes bleed because my skin is thin,and the drying up stuff really makes my skin thinner!
After some moments later I realized that it's not the BB cream's fault,but it's because of the toner. I immediately stop using it regularly only using it after cleansing my face from BB cream but it doesn't last very long though because the moment when I realized it , it almost finish!

I think I used up all about 1-2weeks after I used up the cleanser

CONCLUSION
PROS
1.Removes dirt or left makeup well
2.Fresh sensation when using it
3.Good for oily skin type

CONS
1. Dries up my skin
2. My skin got thinner to the point until it shows the veins and bleed
3. Irritates some spot of my face

WILL I REPURCHASE?
DEFINITELY NO. Gonna try others

C. AC CLINIC DAILY GEL LOTION

From the first review you can see that I don't really like it but after some time later I LOVE IT!
It does give the sticky feeling where you feel like your face is stiff but I don't really mind.

Because when I applied it on my face and there's like some small zits or will be the small zits quickly dried up! So I don't need to put any acne cream,powder,etc for those small zits. And it also quite moisturizing
I used up all about 3-3,5months

CONCLUSION
PROS
1. Quite moisturizing
2. Good for all skin types
3. Dries up small zits
4.Absorbed quite fast

CONS
1. The sticky feeling that makes the face 'stiff'

WILL I REPURCHASE?
I want to but I'm still confused because I want to try others too and I'm sort out of money LOL
But 80% will repurchase it in the future

D. AC CLINIC DAILY SUN BB CREAM SPF30/PA++

First thing it doesn't clogged the pores so it's okay if you applied it to cover your pimples .
But other than that it's just so-so for me. Not really impressed. I only impressed it brighten my skin a little and my dark scars start to fade even not completely fade. But I suppose almost all BB Creams can do that job.
I believe it will glide quite smoothly on other people's skin since my skin really dry and it shows my dry patches.
It comes only in one shade but that's not a big problem for me because I have quite fair skin but sometimes it really annoyed me because it doesn't cover much my acnes (since my skin is quite fair,all my scars and acnes really visible and the color is quite 'show up') and even I tried to layer it up it's not much different

I have used it for 4-4,5months but it still not finish,and my order for other BB cream has arrived and I swap my BB cream. I just got bored you know LOL
I'll give you the swatches on my other post later,but it's comparison with my other BB Cream

 

Info: I heard that Etude House has discontinued the BB Cream on full size tube,so you only can get this on the trial kit

CONCLUSION
PROS
1. Has SPF 30/PA++
2. Doesn't clogged pores
3. A little goes along the way
4. Brighten my skin a little bit (helps to fade some scars too even not completely)

CONS
1. Come in one shade (but that's not a big problem for me)
2. So-so coverage , in my case : meh. I need more coverage
3. Even after layered up it gives not much different
4. I still got some sunburns on some spot of my face (maybe I need a higher SPF)

WILL I REPURCHASE?
NO. There's a lot more of BB Creams out there to try

E. AC CLINIC PINK POWDER SPOT + COTTON BUDS

I'm not quite impressed at first. But now I'm reconsidering to repurchase it or not.
Yes it takes time to heal the acnes. But I found out if  I use it regularly on the spot when I feel like there's going to grow one, it will prevent it to grow and disappear! But not for all of my acnes sadly

When I dip my cotton bud, the liquid (or alcohol I think since it smells like that) absorbs to the bud,so after using it for some moment you can see the liquid is starting to disappear until the point it dried up. Right now I've run out of the liquid,but I still can take the powder easily,but I guess after some moments later it will completely dry and it's hard to take the powder out
For the cotton buds if I'm not mistaken the kit has 10 . I love it. Great material ! Way different from the buds I bought from market

Right now I'm still using it and I almost run out, but I also had other (1) acne medicine that my dad bought for me .

CONCLUSION
PROS
1. Prevent some acnes to grow
2. Great quality of the cotton buds

CONS
1. Takes time to heal
2. The liquid absorbed to the bud,afraid if I purchase the full version I don't have enough time to finish it before it dries (unless I had tons of acnes LOL wish not! )

WILL I REPURCHASE?
Still confused. I had my eyes on other brands,but afraid if it doesn't work for me I must order and wait for pre-order. To buy it all in one time, I don't have enough money.I've spent A LOT from my Haul

So I guess that's all. I'll update if I got third thought LOL /slap
All the items above is in sample (mini) size
I have oily combination skin (super oily on my nose,oily on my forehead, normal on my cheek)(that time) and super sensitive!But now I have quite oily nose,dry skin,and still.super sensitive!

I suspect those contains alcohol (which I think my skin is sensitive to it), so if you're sensitive to alcohol, it's better to only use the one for the acnes (like pink powder spot,intense liquid spot,etc)
So,have you tried it before? Any comments ? Suggestions? Others?
