Whiteheads...

What to do about one? It's just below my eyebrow. I am lucky in that acne/pimples have never been an issue, but I can see how I have one here because I don't usually go that high up with eye makeup remover and try to avoid my eyes with soap- but how do I get rid of it? I know sqeezing is a no-no- anything else?

Re: Whiteheads...

Try soaking a washcloth in the hot water and pressing it over the whitehead until it cools down.
Repeat the process a few times.
It should help bring it to better head and then you should be able to just GENTLY squeeze it without causing damage...

(If you have to squeeze too hard, it's not ready to go yet)

It usually works for me.

You can even add a little salt to the water to help dry it out...

Dr. Oz last week(on his show) recommended not squeezing it however taking a sterile needle and inserting it in on an angle and then lightly pushing down around it but not to squeeze it.

This is what I did, and it worked!
