Exactly What 1 Redditor Did to Get Rid of Blackheads in Just 1 Month

Though blackheads can seemingly pop up overnight, those stubborn little b*tches can be tough to get rid of. Unless you want to subject yourself to some gruesome, YouTube-style pimple popping (never a good idea), you're left to undergo a timely, trial-and-error skincare process. One Redditor's routine is going viral for its crazy-impressive results — which she achieved in just one month.

As Reddit user yoofka wrote on Skincare Addiction, a sextet of products have cleared the pores on her nose from blackheads. The routine replaced her previous trio of a charcoal cleanser, collagen- and hyaluronic-acid-infused toner, and moisturizing face cream.

The proof is in the pictures, and as you can see in the before-and-after photo yoofka posted, she clearly found the procedure that works for her. "My skin has never been more supple or texture-less in my 22 years!" she wrote. Read on for her entire routine — and then immediately make room on your bathroom shelf for seven new products!

Lancome Energie de Vie Cleansing Oil

Lancome Energie de Vie Cleansing Oil

Her makeup remover of choice is Lancome Energie de Vie Cleansing Oil ($50), a goji berry, lemon balm, and vitamin E-infused essence.

Neogen Dermalogy Bio-Peel Gauze

Neogen Dermalogy Bio-Peel Gauze

She then follows up with this Neogen Dermalogy Bio-Peel Gauze ($27). Yoofka opts for the green tea version of this product (there's also a lemon option), which is especially formulated for sensitive skin.

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser

Yoofka called this Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser ($10) her "holy grail" face wash. "You need less than a pea-sized amount and it doesn't really lather but it takes makeup off and is super gentle," she wrote. Fragrance-phobes, take note: she also wrote that the cleanser's "smell is not strong at all."

Differin Gel

Differin Gel

Yoofka wrote that while she sees results with Differin Gel ($11), using the over-the-counter retinoid can also lead to dry, flaky skin. That's why she follows it with . . .

Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment

Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment

. . . Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment ($6), of which yoofka wrote, "This ointment works miracles."

Akaran Moisture Lotion

Akaran Moisture Lotion

Yoofka opts to apply toner after moisturizing, and she uses Akaran Moisture Lotion ($43). Why the switcharoo? "My mother's side is Korean, and I grew up in East Asia; I've just been taught from 13 [years old] to always moisturize first to lock in the moisture and then tone afterwards because toner is never as moisturizing . . . I've always noticed that my skin was brighter and softer and more supple if I toned last, like my mom and grandma always taught me."

The Face Shop Face Masks

The Face Shop Face Masks

The final step in yoofka's process is resting up in a mask from The Face Shop ($3).
