Help!! Woke up with a small whithead pimple 8 days before wedding!!

Aveda has a great product Aveda Balancing Infusion Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment that will clear it right up.

Benzoyl peroxide can help dry it out. I find sacylic acid isn't strong enough for my skin. I'd avoid popping it, chances are it'll come back worse.

I'm a believer in tea tree oil and hot compresses

Clean & Clear spot treatment - it a silver tube with a purple cap in the "face" section of stores. It works like a charm!

DON'T PICK AT IT! If you do, put some Neosporin on it at night to heal the skin.

Use witch hazel. It works wonders!

Wash your face with dial soap and put some witch hazel on a cotton ball and hold it to that area. do this at morning and night.

CosRx Pimple patches!! They work WONDERS. You can get them on amazon. They hyrdracolliod bandages and basically suck all the icky white goo out without damaging the skin. You can also get the brand Peach Slices from CVS. Theyre the same thing, but I like the CosRx brand better since I think they stay on better.

I would be very very careful about using products with a lot of BHA or Benzol Peroxide. It will dry out the area and make it even worse!

Put some Windex on it!

No.... please do not do this. Dial soap is meant for the hands/body and not the face - if you use a cleanser or soap that is the wrong ph you will screw up the acid mantle on your skin and you will be more likely to get pimples and/or dryness.

This stuff is a miracle worker!

Drying Lotion

Hot pack it and then put something that has Salicylic Acid and benzoyl peroxide would do you well!! I also recommend Clean and Clear’s spot treatment, but the cream that’s purple & white works been than the gel that’s the silver and purple one!

Good luck hun!

Kate Somerville EradiKate or the Mario Badeschu recommended above

Or go to your derm and have them lance it and give you cortisone for the inflammation

LOL. I love that movie.

View Quoted Comment Yes! Apply a big glob of it on the pimple after you wash/dry your face at night. Head to bed. It should be gone by the morning. I love this stuff.

Differin gel, it used to be by prescription only but is now sold in stores. I just started it about a week ago and had a large boil type pimple on my cheek and it was dried up and almost gone within three days of using that.

I use the Mario Badescu buffering lotion or drying cream. I wasn’t as big of a fan as the drying lotion.

View Quoted Comment Oh I second this !! It is worth every penny !

Mario basescu drying lotion is the best for white heads!

Definitely agree with the CosRX patches! They work great for me and help draw everything out of the whitehead overnight. A lot of the normal acne medications like salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide dry skin out and make me peel which is harder to cover with makeup
