Wash your face with a gentle, non-foaming cleanser and apply a non-comedogenic moisturiser to help protect your skin from excessive dryness. Over-the-counter topical products containing salicylic acid or a mild retinoid (adapalene) may help unclog pores and clear blackheads, but start them gradually to avoid irritation. If your condition does not improve, please see your doctor or a dermatologist for personalised advice.
