little when you put it on...

Whatever you do don't do the toothpaste thing. It burned off a layer on my skin and left it looking worse than before.

My sister has been using rubbing alcohol on her pimples and zits and it sure helps clear them up.

Tea tree oil is the BEST for the huge ones that seem to last forever but never want to pop. I put that stuff on and the next morning they're ready, I pop
them, and I'm done with it. I only use tea tree oil when I get those monsters.
If you've already popped it and you have a little scab, put Neosporin or Vaseline on it. It'll moisturize it really well over night, making it easier to cover with makeup the next day, and the little scab will flake off sooner. |

I have a problem with popping them once there is a head and I've noticed a few small spots that stay after the pimples gone. Is there any way to clear that
up too?

i had a lot of small pimples before, but then i started using neutrogena daily wash, deep clean and toner everyday and it really cleared them up.
i
don't know if that's what you mean though hahha.

Neosporin is a secret that really works. If you have a zit especially that popped but is still part dry and part angry
put a thin layer of neosporin on it
overnight, it heals and is an antibiotic all in one.
It never makes it worse, it always helps. Caladryl clear works on tiny whiteheads, dries them right up. It doesnt have to be the pink stuff. I also love regular witch hazel. I use it right before I go to sleep, I take a cotton pad, soak it with witch hazel, and rub it all over. Its great for clearing the skin and regulating natural balance. Its pure and natural and has been used for years and years. Finally, I will say that I do an aspirin mask once a week. Take ten uncoated generic aspririn (uncoated tablets are cheap, get the generic ) with some hot water, enough to make a thickish paste. You can do this in the palm of your hand. Aspirin has natural salicyclic acid, just like in zit medicines. I often add some aloe vera gel to this, or some of the queen helene mint julip mask. You cant mess the proportions of this up, just add as much as you want to make a mask-y feel to your concoction. Put all over face, careful around mouth and eyes and nostrils. Leave on for up to five minutes. Wash off with warm or cool water and your skin will be GORGEOUS. Smooth and healthy and pores will be smaller. It acts as both an exfollient (the aspirin grains are gritty) and as a zit preventive and healer. Sometimes if I have a bad zit I dissolve just one aspirin into paste, then put in on the zit overnight. |

omg thank you I'm definately going to try that! I've gotten my face clear enough to wear I can just put sheer powder on and its fine, but lately it is
being stubborn as all hell and it really depresses me seeing how good it USED to be lol. I'm definately going to try these things!

I just read in Glamour magazine to apply Visine with a q-Tip to get rid of redness. I clean my cell phone off everyday to make sure I dont get any on my
jawline. Dont use any scrubs when you have a pimple, it could irritate it more. I agree with the toothpaste thing, it could burn the surrounding skin and make
it worse.

I was breaking out really bad the past like 2 months and it seemed like my face wash just wasn't working anymore so I went to the store and just randomly
grabbed some Neutrogena and within like 2 days my face had totally cleared up. It was a miracle, I swear.
