The Truth About Blackheads
I was recently asked about blackheads during our “Ask the Esthetician” series on Instagram. A recurring series where I answer your questions about skin - if you haven't tuned in yet, please do! Here's the truth about them: Everyone gets them, and everyone wants to get rid of them.
