I have always struggled with blackheads on my nose so I often 'spot treat' it with regular masks to keep it at bay. This product isn't as effective as I hoped it would be, especially with the skin around the nose being soft and difficult to work around, I would press and not much would happen. I'd imagine that this is best suited for probably the rest of the face like the chin where you can actually make your skin taught in order to extract the blackhead.
