Before I give you false hope, I must warn you that pimple removal can be a hassle. If you find no more than 2 active pimples that are not superficial red bumps but actually have whiteheads, here are some tips to reduce the size, relieve the redness, and make the pimples lighter to cover up with makeup if you wish.
Washing your makeup brushes once a week removes bacteria that have been contaminating each other in a bacteria-filled cycle. You’ll find your skin looks clearer, and your makeup brushes will thank you for taking good care of them.
4. Change your pillowcases weekly
Everyone always seems to forget this step, but our pillowcases are full of bacteria, dirt, and oil that accumulates as soon as your head hits the pillow every night. Changing your pillowcase weekly will minimize contact with excess bacteria and oil and remove pesky stains immediately.
5. Consider your diet and possible food allergies
It has been scientifically proven that the health of your gut is reflected on your face. Not only will a healthy, balanced lifestyle be good for your body, but your skin will also be more flawless and radiant. Try to avoid fatty foods and sugars as they are the culprits of stains. If you can’t give up Friday night chocolate or takeaways, at least try to eat less. You will find that the size of blemishes will shrink faster when you quit sugar and unhealthy foods.
These won’t make acne go away quickly
1. Stay away from toothpaste and diaper rash cream
Leave the toothpaste for your teeth and leave the diaper rash for your baby’s bottom. The spots will not get smaller or redder, you will only dry out the area around the acne, making it more obvious! If you must apply something to your pimples, choose a topical, dry ointment that is designed to treat pimples and will not cause imbalances in the surrounding skin. You can also apply a light moisturizer to the pimples, as this can reduce redness or smooth the skin. Bacteria form a head that can be quickly removed.
2. Don’t pick at pimples!
99.9% of people pick at their pimples. It’s very satisfying, and it’s very tempting not to do it. However, if you find that your skin tone looks uneven and pigmented, squeezing your pimples may be the cause. If you pop the pimples, you may be able to get rid of the unsightly whiteheads, but if you do it too roughly, you will cause a lot of damage to the surface of the skin, so the pimples will leave scars and marks on your face. It takes a lot of time to repair. Believe it or not, pimples will disappear quickly if you don’t poke and squeeze!
3. Don’t use harsh ingredients and products on the spot
When you need to feel clean, you will want to look for products that give you a “clean and neat” feeling. However, this is not good for the skin at all, as the ingredients and products can be too harsh and abrasive. You’ll notice that the pimples you treat with these products look angry and even worse than before. Pimples can quickly become pimples if you don’t remove all the moisture and oils needed to keep your skin barrier balanced and healthy.
Here you will find a variety of ways to treat acne and help it go away fast, as well as tips and advice. Although having blemishes is heartbreaking and absolutely annoying, your main focus should be on cleansing your skin thoroughly (but gently) every night, especially after a day of applying makeup. You should also use the right skincare products for your skin type and skin concerns. Like everything in life, practice makes perfect, and you’ll find that once you establish a routine, acne will no longer be an annoying problem and will go away quickly.
