Skincare Beauty Tip
Make A Pimple Disappear
submitted: Aug 19, 2009tip #346
For flawless skin like Shenae Grimes' just follow these zit-zapping tricks!
• A superficial pimple—the kind that is on the surface of your skin and can be tempting to pop—can be cured by using a spot treatment that contains the maximum amount of either salicylic acid (2%) or benzoyl peroxide (10%). Treat your pimple morning and night, and bring down any swelling by icing it for 10 minutes. These tactics should zap your zit within a day or two, and in the meantime you can keep it covered with a blemish-fighting concealer. We like: Dr. Brandt Blemishes No More Spot Blotter and Concealer
• If you're cursed with a cystic pimple—those are the ones that are imbedded deep in your skin and can be painful when you press it—you'll need to visit your dermatologist to see fast results. A quick cortisone injection will shrink that volcano down within a day.
• Regardless of the type of pimple you have, one rule stays constant: don't pop it! The more you touch it, the bigger the zit will get and could cause a scar. So hands off!

I have pimples at the back too..
And having problem getting rid of it.
T_T
Help?
Just so you know pimples are not inherited I don't know who told you that but it's not true. It depends on what you eat, how you treat yourself, and how you handle stress. I know first hand because both my parents had horrible acne and both me and my brothers don't have it.
All you need to do is drnk a lott of water and eat healthy foods with fruit and vegtables. And when your u der stress take a breather and relax. And if you need a zit gone fast use a spot treatment.
You are more likely to have acne if your parents had it than if they didn't. It's a proven fact.
Yeah, I've been told that. But my parents were never effected at all by acne and zits. But me, well, that's a complete different story! I was effected by acne and zits like mad. I tried different skin care products and eventually found the right one. Then all my acne and zits seemed to disappear like magic! Just keep trying different products and eventually you'll find the right one!
4 my back i uze nuetragena ACNE STRESS CONTROL & it wurkz pretty good!!!! but u have 2 get the facewash, acne padz & acne gel uthurwize it dusn't wurk
oh ok! i just got the soap and didn't see any improvement at all thanx!
neutrogena works
amazingly enough, this actually works!
That's neat, I'll try that. I like the idea of icing the pimple.
hmmm, maybe i should try. sounds Like a winner.
A little calamine lotion on the pimple can do the trick. Additionally, I have used Bonne Bell's 10- 0-6 lotion for years. It is no longer available in stores, but can be purchased online. It really controls the oils and keeps the pimples from forming, in my opinion. The smell is not so great when you open the bottle, but you get used to it!
It is,they have just released a new version. You can get it from Priceline or Big W.
I see proactive has come out with a body skin care line. also dandruff shampoo has a healing effect on acne lather up your hair soap down your trouble spots shower as usual and rinse it off just prior to exiting the shower.
i also like 2 uze toothpaste (don't uze the 1s that say they whiten ur teeth, they strip the color off ur skin 2!!!)
Toothpaste cleans your teeth, and it works wonders on pimples too. Two words: DO IT!!!
tooth paste burns your skin it is not useful at all unless you want your face scard
the reason it strips the colour of your skin is because it burns the skins original surface
Is it true if you put tooth paste on your pimple before you go to bed, that it will clear up in a day or two ?
Any one know the answer
Yes, it does work, I use to do that :P In one night it takes the redness away and drys it out soo it doesnt get all ***** and stuff
toothpaste has fluorine insid it is really acidic to use on a spot i wouldnt recomend it at all we use toothpaste to brush our teeth not to get rid of pimples that is just nonesense i dont know wer ppl came up with that idea but it's funny.
I some times get a pimple but what I do is make my eyes look really intense, it draws the persons eye to my eyes and not the pimple but I wear 2 foundations anywayz (Liquid and powder) soo you dont really notice it anywayz :)
i get loads of spots and sudocrem works pretty well, but i get alot of blackheads. Help!
Hi. I have a pimple problem. Everytime I get a new face wash, it seems to get rid of acne for good and make my skin glow for about a month or so, but then it just stops working. The acne comes back and doesn't go away till i get a new one. any advice?
use neutrogena it works get the face wash mask 2 in 1 from superdrug
sooo.. you should not pop them??? could you put sali... acid all over uR face if its red??? (aka spot treatment) (thX):)
one time when i iced my pimple, the area i put the ice cube on turned red for the whole day
Take a 8 hours sleep and no stress and ur face is beautiful and positive outlook and prayers is the best that u can have a beutiful face..
