FIRST AID FOR PIMPLES

Good. We are honest with each other, right? While I write this, I have a nose that is annoyingly red because there is a subcutaneous pimple knocking at the door. I know I am guilty of this because I have eaten quite a lot of Toffifees and other chocolate this Christmas. And I have also gone to bed very often without washing my face. And I was immediately punished for that.

Because there is a good chance that you have walked the same path as I have these days and you might also have a red jewel on your nose, cheek, or forehead, I share the First Aid for Pimples.

Do not squeeze

Unless there is a white head on it, all nice men must STOP reading NOW. Then you have to act. Take a needle that you disinfect with alcohol (I don't mean that leftover vodka but 100% alcohol from the drugstore), prick it into the tip of the pimple, and then gently push it out. To prevent contamination in other places, wrap a tissue around your fingertips and treat the pimple afterwards with some disinfecting lotion. And now, keep your hands off, promised?

Aspirin

A tip from the professionals is an aspirin. You grind it finely and mix it with some water. With a cotton swab, you apply the aspirin mixture to your pimple. Repeat this a few times. After an hour, the redness will already be less and the pimple smaller. Really! Leco also sometimes uses the aspirin trick to shrink the pores of the skin. A good idea after a short night if you want to shine.

Anti blemish solutions from Clinique

In my house, there are always at least two of these bottles, really the best stuff when there is a little emergency pimple. You would almost be happy about a pimple, it's that nice.

Benzac gel

This gel softens the top layer of the skin and inhibits the acne bacteria. Also perfect if you have an unruly skin on your back or décolleté.

Exfoliant from Uncover

This also removes the top layer of your skin, preventing clogging and keeping your skin shiny.

If all this doesn't help, I refer you to the counter of Jetske Ultee. Because she has a solution for every problem.
