Pimple Help!

Please help! I have a pimple brewing...my skin is red and raised and I know I'm gonna wake up with a big pimple. I have a wedding tomorrow. I haven't had a pimple in months...why?? Ugh, between the rain and this I don't even want to go anymore lol. Is there something I can put on my skin to make it not so bad?

Re: Pimple Help!

Put toothpaste on it.

PASTE -- not gel.

And sleep with it overnight.

It dries it up and will help clear it up asap.

ETA - wash your face first, obviously, and get it nice and clean.

If you have sensitive skin do NOT do this! The toothpaste burned a hole in my skin!

Thanks! I tried the toothpaste and it didn't work Chat Icon , well, it didn't get better or worse. It's not too bad though, I was afraid I was going to wake up to something way worse. Thanks again!

Toothpaste does not belong on the skin.

In the future use a warm compress on it to try to bring it to a head.

These can really help if it's come to a head - if you need something really fast, you can find hydrocolloid bandages at CVS (you wear them overnight - these help draw out oil and flatten the pimple).

i'm glad it didn't turn out to be as bad as you'd thought it was going to be.
