I use tea tree liquid soap (a few drops) directly when washing my face. I just noticed this week that all the blackheads I had have disappeared from my pores. Nothing else in my skincare regimen has changed, so I think this was the silver bullet for my lifelong blackhead issues.

If you have Blackheads, Whiteheads, Comedomes that are stubborn, deep set in the skin, does not seem to want to come out, just stays there on the skin - neither progressing into a ripe pimple, nor fading away, this is the cure. Mix 1 Tablespoon vodka with 2 Tablespoon water. Dab on clean skin, and leave it there. Do not wash off. After a few applications, the sebum (oily, waxy substance) will be drawn up closer to the surface of the skin. Now, with a little hot steam in the shower, and some pinching, the sebum comes out more easily.
I had sebum that would just sit deep in the skin. Forming bumps and closed comedomes all over (face,, neck, back, chest). Pinching it was hard because it was so stubborn and deep set. Once it formed it would just stay there, for weeks/months. If it progressed into a red, ripe pimple then it would eventually pop, and that'll be the end of it. But these closed comedome just STAYS there.
This vodka method really helps. After 2-3 days - apply once to twice a day, the sebum, closed comedomes, are surfacing!!! I can finally pinch in with a warm cloth and out they come!
