SEPHORA COLLECTION Double-Ended Blemish Extractor

What it is:A long-handled, stainless steel, double loop extractor.What it does:This tool features a small loop for white heads and a flat side to extract blackheads.What else you need to know:A deep, cystic pimple should not be opened with a loop extractor. When dealing with deep acne, it's best to visit a dermatologist. A doctor may use a sterile needle, but only after a pustule has formed. Additional treatments depend on the severity of the acne.

Didn't work for me

Maybe my skin isn't that bad. I have all these blackheads in my nose and it didn't work: maybe I should have bought the one with the lance. I love sephora but this one wasn't a winner for me.

Dont waste your money on this
-05.06.13
This "tool" is not worth the $18.00 price tag. It really does not extract, and leaves massive impressions on the skin. I really wanted to like this but it is just a bust. I will be returning and not recommending this to anyone.

If you're looking to remove blackheads from your forehead then this tool is great. I couldn't believe the amount of gunk I cleared with this tool! Very impressed with how it handled. It is much less painful than squeezing with your fingers which can result in broken skin and bleeding.
The only downfall is that it won't work on your nose of any other "squishy" part of your face. It definitely needs the resistance of bone behind it to work properly. I am happy enough with it that I will keep using it but I would be reluctant to recommend to anyone looking to clear the bridge of their nose or chin.

Its probably because I have small pores but I do have blackheads I wanted this to remove. It did not remove any of them.

I am new to the whole extractions of blackheads and whiteheads. After watching countless gross videos on how to remove blackheads and whiteheads and reading tons of reviews on extractors I decided to buy this one. Once I received this in the mail I was so excited! I washed my face and steamed and starting pressing where I have the most clogged pores; nose and chin but nothing would come out no matter how hard I pressed down. The metal was really harsh on my face and created dents after pressing down. Sadly I had to return this item and decided to go with Boscia Pore Purifying Black Strips which gets some of the gunk out of my pores.

It perfect.

Quick Take: easy to use
It's a really nice tool. However I find that the flat side for "blackhead removal" isn't quite right. I use it for the ready to pop blemishes. (although you are not supposed to) Because the loop is flat it helps extract the core of the pustules. Which, if you don't remove, cause more bacteria to spread and make the blemish even bigger.

does what its got to
-02.02.13
This product does do what it's supposed. Yo do the only thing is it kind of hurts more using the product then of you were to just use your fingers. But I've noticed a lot this breakouts using the product

If you are fine with clearing comedones with your fingers, you don't need this. It does nothing for me.

Excellent!

Quick Take: easy to use
I give this product 4 stars because the flat head is not as good as the wire one, it really doesn't do anything for me. Or I think the instructions on the box are wrong. But this product is overall great, and is very strong you don't see or feel the material breaking any time soon, and the wire one is very firm considering the pressure your applying to get the little sucker out. I would try the drugstores first, this is a bit over price in my opinion! However, this is the safer way to go, instead of using those biore strips and pushing them out with your fingers or nails, is less harsh on the skin.

Quick Take: easy to use
I do pore/ black/ white heads cleaning every week, and this one makes my pore cleaner and easier to clean. However, the flat blackheads side is not as good as the white heads one, but still works! I hope this product can improve for the flat side.

mixed feelings
-01.05.13
I have a couple of black heads on my cheeks. I tried using this tool a couple of times right after a hot shower, I thought it would make it easier on my skin but the black head side of the tool is too harsh for me. It left a mark that I had to massage gently with a warm towel. I guess it's not for me.

good for whiteheads
-12.26.12
I'm a first-timer at unclogging my own pores, but this handy little thing is definitely better than squeezing with your nails. Have only used the smaller end for removing whiteheads. Very effective, make sure to clean with alcohol before uses.
