Found a trick for stubborn blackheads using paper tape and it actually worked

I had this one client last week with a nose full of those tiny blackheads that just would not budge no matter what extractor I used. On a whim I tore off a strip of 3M micropore tape and pressed it on her nose after a quick enzyme. When I peeled it off like half the gunk came with it. Has anyone else tried this or am I just lucky for now?

Dude yes I tried this exact thing a few weeks ago and was shocked at how much came off. Felt like cheating honestly.

Yeah I did it with my old cast iron pan that was looking rough. Scrubbed it down with salt and oil and it looked brand new. Never going back to soap on that thing.

Oh jeez, I tried this once and peeled off so much gunk I thought I'd accidentally exfoliated my whole nose off. At least my pores were clean while I panicked.
