Use a sandalwood paste made with water on your pimple. Let the paste dry on the zit for 10-20 minutes and then rinse off with lukewarm water.
or
Use a facemask that contains kaolin clay and/or camphor like Olay Daily Facials Cleansing Mask. It is really good. U can use it on your entire face.
or
Use Proactive overnight acne treatment mask on the zit, let it sit for 10-15 minutes and rinse off. No need to use it all over your face.
and
keep your face clean with lukewarm water and a clean towel. Do not make the mistake of washing it repeatedly with soap or else your face might get more breakouts.
and
drink 8-10 tall glasses of water (preferably not cold) and get a good night's sleep (atleast 7-8 hours)
Hope this helps..

Don't pop it, no matter what other people tell you. That's gross. Give the Acne Spot Treatment some time. Use Noxzema. Wash and cleanse your face everyday. I use Premium Quality All Natural Dickinson's 100% Natural and Botanical Witch Hazel Formula Astringent Cleanser. It works!

have u also been washing your face? and using toner......the clean and clear acne spot treatment takes time.....
and so does getting rid of a pimple....... I've noticed that the clean and clear brings mine to head sooner so that they show up sooner than they would have (i can feel my pimples coming in) and then they fade away faster........ you could always apply peroxide to it or toothpaste.......but not 2 much

if the dirt is visible it is best to pop it to get it out. other than that normally it makes it worse.
just keep your face clean and continue applying your medicine.
it will eventually calm down.
AND try not to touch it... the oil in your fingers will make your pimple worse if you touch it. and even if you are popping it try not to touch it... i would suggest using the loop end of a bobbypin to get the dirt out instead of oily human fingers

Use proactive. works for me but b4 i had proactiv i had problems like that 2. Don't spot treat it cuz you'll make it worse. Make sure u drink enough water 2 cuz a bunch of pop is no good.

Ignor it or wash your face like every other hour. It works for me all the time when i get pimples.

Try cleansing and toning your face. Then, dab a bit of toothpaste on your problem areas overnight. Keep doing it for a few nights.
