I'm noticing a dark horizontal line on my nose and I'm not sure what's causing it. I've been using a Clean & Clear blackhead scrub, but it doesn't seem to be making much of a difference. Could this be an allergy or something else? I've seen other people with similar lines, and I've attached a photo for reference. Any insights would be really helpful!
