Sebaceous filaments

I tend to have a lot of sebaceous filaments on my nose and it's hard for me to get rid of them. I use every night the cleansing oil but it doesn't help that much. Any recommendations?

Sebaceous filaments are totally normal and are a natural part of your skin. They might look like blackheads but they serve a different purpose by helping oil flow to your skin's surface when you cleanse your skin too frequently or aggressively, it can backfire and make these filaments more noticeable To help reduce the appearance of sebaceous filaments and make them look smaller you can introduce gentle exfoliation into your skincare routine. Products containing salicylic acid or using clay masks can be effective in minimizing their appearance without harming your skin. Also It's important to remember that sebaceous filaments are normal and everyone around you has them too. There's absolutely no need to feel self-conscious about them.💕

BHA twice a week and clay mask once a week. You can't get rid of sebaceous filaments permanently, they'll always come back since they are part of our skin. But you can minimize its appearance with the right routine and products.

Keep in mind that they're not black heads and are part of the skin. They don't do away but you can minimize the appearance with BHA products or clay mask.
