I occasionally have big under the skin zits that just pop up. Does anyone know any good overnight treatments. I am currently using proactiv, but it doesn't get rid of this problem for me right away like I wished it did. Thanks!
the only thing that works pretty good with me is a drop of essential oil (tea tree, grapefruit, lemon) on the pimple. it doesn't kill all of it, but a good part, and usually it's gone the day after.
sorry i'm no help. i love the proactiv sulfur mask. what i do is once or twice a week i leave it on all night and once a week i leave itt on when im in the shwoer shaving. i've never had anything remove a pimple over night, but this does an amazing job of shrinking them and helping them go away quickly with out scarring.
My girlfriend brought back this AMAZING stuff from England. It's called Freederm and it comes in a little white tube with blue lettering. It's fab!! I use it when I feel a pimple coming up and it really helps to take it down. I'm not sure if it's available in the US, though. We don't have it here and I'm desperatly looking for someone who is going to the UK to bring me back some more.
I usually use the clearasil spot treatment stuff, or dab a lil mint julep masque on it and leave it overnight and it's either gone or signifigantly reduced in the morning. In desperate times I've used toothpaste and succeeded.
honey i have the same exact acne as that. how its like those under the skin types. the kind that like dont really pop up with a white head but like a big bump that you can feel. welllllll... i've used lots of stuff... but i realized my good ol' dermalogica and murad have been the things i should have been using.
for those big weird pimples, i use murad clarifying mask. its sulfur based too.. it came out WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY befor pro-active. its like professional use. its suppose to be a 10 minutes all over mask.. i do that once a week. but at night i use it as a spot treatment. i put it on my acne after i wash my face. and when i wake up i wash my face and its either gone or its at the almost gone stage
i dont like pro-active. all it does is teach you how to wash ur face.
=D remember not to dry out ur face... dry faces also cause acne because dry skin clogs ur pores. when looking up acne stuff read the labels and look for whats best for your face and or regemin
Usually when a pimple pops up I put a dab of honey on it. It usually helps (plus it's cheap!) My grandmother used to use honey on my scrapes and pimples when I was young. Honey has some antibacterial qualities.
