Comments on How to Treat Pimples

Applicator sponges for liquid foundation makeup are meant to be disposable, like cotton balls. Throw them away after each use because they hold bacteria.

Apply some LEMON juice, just few drops is sufficient, after washing the effected area with soap and water. It works for me.

Take a towel, run steaming hot water into your bathroom sink, put the towel over the sink so the steam will stay confined, and stick your head under the towel for about five minutes. It opens your pores and makes your face cleanser much more effective!

Get a washcloth and get it really hot with water, put it on the pimple that you want to pop for around 15-30 seconds. If the rag gets cold, then after 15 seconds warm it again and do it until it starts to cool down again. Then pop the pimple. It doesn't leave scars and it really works. :)

I have had acne since age 11. I have tried everything. The only thing that works for me I started using a few months ago. Neosporin has worked miracles on new pimples and old red scars. My face is 80% clearer and improves every week. I put it on at night and wash it off in the morning. Just use it sparingly and only where needed.

Every time I have a pimple, I usually put a steaming hot washcloth over it to open the pore. I then pop the zit using the same washcloth (don't use fingernails, which might leave a scar). It usually disappears after a couple of days.

1) Wash your face immediately after working out; 2) don't use shampoos with coconut oil; 3) keep hair and hair products off face; 4) keep hands off face - NO PICKING!

To get rid of a zit, I found that oatmeal and eggs work. I can't remember how much, so use your own judgement. I also have oily skin, so I found it takes time. Don't judge someone on their ZITS!

What I found to work best is when you have any amount of pimples you should steam your face. This opens up the pores. Then wash your face with a good soap that will not dry out your face. If your face is dry your pimples can get irritated and look worse. Then use a little bit of rubbing alcohol. Next, splash cold water on your face. This will close your pores and will help keep dirt out of them. If you want to you can put a little bit more rubbing alcohol on. There is a more effective and immediate solution though. Go to the store and buy Clearasil Ultra vanishing cream. It works very well for any pimple.

Putting rubbing alcohol on your pimples can help dry them out.

If you just HAVE to pop a pimple, make sure you put some tea tree oil on afterwards to avoid scarring.
