How to Get Rid of a Zit Overnight

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Kelli. I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ulta Salon and Cosmetics and I'm going to give you some tips on how you can get rid of or diminish the appearance of a zit overnight. The first thing you want to do is make sure you get your face really nice and clean maybe using like a really good salicylic based acne cleanser. That's going to help to exfoliate and it's going to help to bring any of those impurities out of the pores. The next thing that you would want to do is to use a really good treatment mask, maybe clay based or sulfur based and leave that on for about five to ten minutes and you can actually steam the face after you do that as well, or before. It depends on what you want to do but if you steam it before, it's going to soften up all the dirts and oils within the skin and then when you put that mask on, it's going to help draw even more impurities out. Then the next thing that you would want to do is to get yourself a really good spot treatment. So after you take your mask off, if you get a really good spot treatment, this is a sulfur based spot treatment. So if you take this on, and you leave this on overnight, it's going to really help to pull and draw any of the impurities out of the pores and also help to lighten any discolorations and remove the redness. So those are some tips that you can do to help to remove or diminish the appearance of a pimple overnight."
