The Dos & Don’ts For Dealing With Blackheads

Ah those tiny black dots. So small, so annoying, so bloody tempting to squeeze. Why do we get them? Can we avoid getting them? And how bad is it REALLY if we just can’t resist giving them a good squeeze/pick to get rid of them? Is a pore vacuum a good idea? In this ep we chat to US dermatologist and straight-shooter (our face kinda expert!) Dr Ranella Hirsch about allll of the above, plus the skin care ingredients that’ll help in the whole blackhead department. Also in this ep: the big beauty companies trying to do better, the difference between a dry scalp and dandruff and how to best treat each, and of course our beauty MVPs (including an eyeshadow from a plastic-free makeup brand and a skin-brightening primer) Let us know what you think!
