Take a cotton ball and dab the zit with Visine. It will help get some of the redness out but unfortunately won't do much for the swelling. Press some ice on to help with the swelling. Remember that the less you mess with it, the less noticeable it will be.

Dont use makeup. I've done that back in the day and it just becomes messy or u look silly. Dont use lotion on ur face that makes ur face shine. U want to take down the "glow" of the zit. Dont touch it or pick at it. Hold a cold wash rag on it and that will draw out all the redness.

DON'T USE ANY CONCEALER IT JUST MAKES THE PIMPPLE LOOK OUSTANDING AND MORE NOTICABLE. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE. I HATE WHEN I SEE PEOPLE TRY TO COVER IT WITH UP CONCEALER AND YOU CAN TELL THEY ARE TRYING TO HIDE IT. AND IT LOOKS ALL CHALKY AND LIKE A LAYER OF BLOB.
TRY SOME OF THAT OXY THAT HAS 2%BENZOYL IN IT. IT'S LIKE OVERNIGHT CREAM STUFF YOU PLACE IT ONTO THE PIMPLE DURRING NIGHT TIME BEFORE YOU GO TO BED AFTER YOU WASH YOU FACE AND IT WILL DIMINISH THE FOLLOWING DAY. TRUST ME!!! YOU WILL SEE THE DIFFERENCE!!!

well depends how far away if it is more than an hour away dab some toothpaste on the spot so it will dry it out and leave it not as red adn than if you have foundation or concealer try that or maybe you mom might but if not it should still look fine

Pop it and put a hot hot rag on it for a few mins followed by alchol then apply a really cold rag then apply make up as normal

To pop a pimple use a lancet (small needles for diabetics) poke the pimple a little bit, than just squeeze the pimple if shizz comes out put alcohal on it so it doesn't scar. to cover it use clinique concealer (best cover-up)!!!!

Whitish Toothpaste works well overnight (but even for an hour or so would help). Use an astringent if you have one. Also, this sounds wierd but it really works. Spread Egg whites on your face, they absorb the oil. (it does smell kind of funky though)
Good Luck!

dont irritate it in any way. Dont touch it. Put an icecube wrapped in a towel on it to bring down any swelling and redness. Put your acne cream on and then use your concealer.

Maybe apply some ice on it for few minutes.

use any face wash or lotion with benzoil peroxide.
stay away from oil.
oil is the enemy........it makes you break out even more.
