Re: fast acting solution for pimples
noooo thootpaste 
toothpaste does nuthing it doesnt even dry the pimple and it leaves a scar as a bonus
lemon juice with cinammon powder works. it take upto 2-3 days and ur pimple will be gone. use it every night b4 going to bed and wash ur face in the morning.
dont use it all over ur face jst on the spot.

Re: fast acting solution for pimples
gina recommended tea tree oil.dabbing some on wid a cotton ball. she has it all down in her skin queries thread. check it out.
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
Nevermind it went away. That was weird?
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
Def NO toothpaste.. it burns the skin and leaves a perm scar. Tea tree oil just like Misty said :)
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
Okay but the one pimple that was bothering was inflamed and RED. And it went away Alhum...or at least its getting smaller. Its so gross bc when I get a pimple its usually where everybody can see it, and when somebody looks at me I get paranoid and think they're staring at my pimple. Ewwww gross
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
If you have some King of Shaves gel at home, apply some for about 10 minutes, then wash off and dab on some tea tree oil (diluted version). KSG has got aloe vera in it, as well as tea tree oil.
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
stupid Q but I just bought a little bottle of the tea tree oil from Body shop...how am i meant to use it? just spot treatment, and just massage it into the skin? how ofteN?
Just dab it on 2-3 times a day and leave it.. u don't need to massage it.
The best and simplest solution is to keep your skin clean all the time. Use Eskinol cleanser 2-3 times a day. like whenever you come back from work, or from market, after party to remove make up, before sleeping at night, clean ur face with Eskinol. It will reduce the pimples growth within weeks. Use Eskinol regularly.
Also drink water as much as you can.
Avoid eating Oily, cheesy, full of fats food and use veges and fruits more.
Constipation is bad for skin and body over all. If you have this prob, solve it first.
Above may not solve your pimples problem 100% , but I am sure you will feel the change within weeks. Its guaranteed :k:
^Say "no" to eskinol.. it contains really harsh chemicals! Neutrogena On-the-spot-treatment is pretty good.. and so is The Body Shop's tea tree blemish stick.
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
^ You sure Gina about Eskinol? I never heard Say No to Eskinol. Its so mild and was recommended to me by so many ppl, including a dermatologist. And I have found it very good n effective on face.
Neutrogena seems to be harsh on other hand. I used Neutrogena products for blackheads n Ecne etc and I thought I wasted my money on them. Seba-med would be a better option compared to Neutrogena.
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
dont worry abt em... dont touch ur face... put ur head on the pillow not ur face when u sleep.
solutions do act differently on different skins. So one solution might work really well for someone and cud make it worst for someone else.

Im sure FT :) eskinol causes superficial burning.. stay away from it and switch to a milder astringent and toner.
Re: fast acting solution for pimples
I take Metamucil (psyllium) powder in hot water in the morning; it helps keep my skin clear. Sometimes i put benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid cream all over my face (even the clear areas) and then go to sleep.
Leaving either one on u're face for the entire night isn't a great idea!
