i popped a pimple and now its red!!?!

Everyone gets pimples as a teen, it's an unfortunate part of life :( When I have a pimple, I make sure I wash my face completely (I use clean & clear) and I use some kind of benzoyl peroxide gel and dab it directly on the pimple right before bedtime. It usually takes 2 or 3 days for the pimple to go away, maybe longer depending on how big it is. Just make sure you don't pop the pimples because that can cause scarring. It's better to live with a pimple for a few days than have an icky red scar forever!

I've heard about this thing called Zeno (I've never tried it) and it runs for about 100$. It uses mild heat to zap pimples away in like a day or less. I've wanted to try it, but its a little expensive.

Ice will get the swelling to go away. The other thing is cover-up i guess.

next time you pop one if you have to, but a hot surface on it or take a hot shower, it brings it to a better head so it will reduce chances of swelling, the pimple coming back, and redness

Try clean and clear cleanser or neutrogena, they are best for your skin. If your gonna get acne, your gonna get it, no avoidance so get a strong, but safe cleanser so that you wont damage your skin in the process

Sounds just like irritation just from popping it, and if toothpaste and products aren't working, there isn't much you can do :/, keep putting the toothpaste on, and it will blow over in a few days.

My face

well the other day on doctor oz, they said applying eye drops would reduce redness.
there's something in it that's suppose to help it. i personally haven't tried it, but maybe it will work for you.

best of luck!

heh heh, if u could get rid of pimples easily no1 would have them

Hello!
I have to say I have tried almost everything to get rid of pimples: Creams, strips, cleaning, and all type of home made remedies, and nothing really helped to definitely get read of acne nor blackheads. I have to say that certain things that helped partially:

- Change your diet and include plenty of nutrition rich foods like fish, diary products, fruits and greens. The Omega-3 and Omega-6 present in the foods helps clear the pores of the skin and remove the secretions and dust thereby allows the skin to breath and glow.

- The biggest enemy of your face is the oily skin which gives rise to Acne formation. Therefore it should be your endeavor to always keep your face free of oil and secretions

BUT it wasn’t, until a friend of mine told me how she solved her acne problem. At first sight her solution looked like one of this promises books out there about how to solve your acne problem.

As the method was 100% back guaranteed, I thought I had nothing to lose. What I didn’t know it was how much I had to win with it with the step- by-step solution I got! (They say it is based on a 7 year period of trial and error). Not only did I get rid of blackheads and breakouts, but in 7 weeks I was able to get my acne cured permanently!

1 and half years later my skin has never looked better. For me it was really worth it the try.

Best of lucks!
