Answer #1

I have blackheads on my nose pretty bad too. I use tea tree oil as well, only raw, on a cotton ball. Naturally, the stuff is a bit inflammatory. I get redness pretty bad myself, but the tea tree is working in the long term.

To deal with redness, I just hold my nose under warm running water for about 30 seconds, and then switch to cold water for 10 seconds. The rapid change from warm to cold will constrict your pores and capillaries, slowing your sub-dermal blood flow and reducing the redness and irritation.

Really simple I know, but it works for me =D

Answer #2

If you have eye drops - the ones for redness - try dabbing that on. It will work the same way it works on the redness in your eyes.

You can also try covering it up with some concealer.
