I agree with most of the previous posts... don't pick at it. Try following this simple facial care regime.
Drink Plenty of Water, it will help you maintain soft, plump, elastic youthful skin. If our skin does not contain enough water it will begin to dry out and can appear dull and crepe-like. Dehydrated skin can become itchy and is more prone to attack by irritants.
Don't Smoke. It reduces the oxygen level in the blood. Low oxygen means that the skin cannot function at its peak and maintain itself properly. Long term skin effects of low oxygen can be seen through dark circles under the eyes, premature wrinkling and saggy, slack, dull skin. In addition the smoke toxins absorbed into the blood stream via the lungs, will also prevent the skin from functioning optimally.
Eat Plenty of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables, especially those that are brightly coloured. They are packed full of antioxidants along with essential vitamins and minerals.
To have healthy, glowing skin, it is vital that the skin receives the nutrition that it needs to function. For example the skin needs vitamin E, an antioxidant, to help maintain the cell walls that make up the building blocks of the skin.
Use a Complete Moisturising Regimen. It will help your skin stay soft, supple and hydrated by preventing water evaporating from your skin. A quality moisturiser does not have to be an expensive one, but it must contain moisturising ingredients from each of the three classes of moisturising agents, humectants, emollients and occludents; by doing this the moisturiser is mimicking the features your skin uses to prevent itself from dehydrating.
During the day our skin needs a moisturiser to prevent dehydration caused by sun exposure, heating, air-conditioning, wind and a host of other factors. As we don't drink water while we sleep, at night our skin needs a more intensive moisturiser to protect our skin from dehydration. At night the skin is more susceptible to irritants and so our night moisturiser needs to be highly protective in addition to being highly moisturising.
The eye area needs particular attention. The skin around our eyes is thinner than the skin on the rest of our face, and is more susceptible to damage, dehydration and poor oxygen flow. Poor skin health around our eyes can be seen as puffiness, bags, dark circles and crepe-like skin. In addition, the eye area is usually the first place fine lines begin to develop. A moisturiser specifically tailored to meet the needs of the skin around our eyes will help maintain overall healthy looking skin.
Wear Sunscreen Every Day. No matter how careful we are, we are exposed to sunlight. While a certain amount of sunlight is good for us as it regulates our body clock, elevates our mood and helps our body produce vitamin D, too much sunlight can be damaging to our skin.
Too much sunlight can lead to sunburn, the development of premature aeging and wrinkling; and can lead to skin cancers.
It is important to use a high quality SPF 30+ broad spectrum sunscreen in conjunction with protective clothing, hats and eyewear, and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun.
It is never too late to start a sun protection regimen! For every day use, a quality moisturiser with a 30+ broad spectrum sunscreen is perfect.

pro activ
first steam your face. popping or digging them out puts you at risk for scars. they say you should use 2 q-tips, press firmly on either side to push them out. but you will still need products to kill the bacteria and prevent future breakouts. proactive works
Cleanse your face with unboiled milk, gently rub a coarse cloth dipped in milk to remove the blackheads. Steam your face with herbs like lavender, lemon peel and mint leaves added to the water and let the skin soak up its goodness.
