Stop the preconceived notions: Blackheads are for teenagers!
If a blackhead can be linked to acne (what we will call open comedo), more obvious during our puberty, it can also be simply linked to dilated pores and their occlusion. And it can happen to all skin types and at all ages!
How does a pore get blocked?
Pollution, make-up, an accumulation of sebum or various impurities...
❌ Also be careful not to confuse blackheads with sebaceous filaments.
Indeed, these last ones in the form of small banked points allow the skin to be protected thanks to the sebum which they lead to its surface. They are there for a good reason and you should not try to remove them.
On the other hand, they can oxidize in contact with the air and become black.
✅ To limit the appearance of blackheads, a gentle enzymatic exfoliation is recommended. Joanna came up with the idea of Dot Is Not An Option when she wanted to get to the root of the problem: a gentle, dual-action paste that works by cleansing and exfoliating the skin to refine its texture, dislodging even stubborn blackheads and finally tightening pores for good.
Applied as a mask, its texture turns into a foamy milk to reveal a luminous and clear skin!
Its real plus: a non-aggressive and fragrance-free formula that will suit most people!
