Put some neosporine on it. It helps clear it up.

To help with the redness, put visine for red eyes on the pimple. The eye drops will cause the redness to go away for a couple hours. You can also crush asprin and mix it w/ water. These have agents to reduce redness. Don't use too much. Just a dab right on the top will do the trick. Then, put concealer on it to deminish the look. Good luck!!

NATURAL ACNE PROTOCOL
1/ Never, ever touch your face.
2/ Use 3 facecloths to wash your face, one to soap on, one to soap off with very hot water, one to rinse off with ice cold water, in that order, once a day.
3/ If you are under 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A once a day with a full meal
4/ If you are over 18 take 5,000 IU of vitamin A twice a day with a full meal.
Do not get pregnant while taking vitamin A. Do not take any more, like Accutane, it will stop you growing.
5/ Never, ever. pick, squeeze or pop your spot. Read number 1 again.
6/ Do this for 90 days.
7/ Invest in a brand new pillow and 2 new or more pillow cases to �double bag' your pillow. HOT wash every couple of days.
Source:
A bit of advice given to me as a teenager, a bit of science as I am studying allergic reactions and vitamin A is a part of that. A bit of research: I sat in a lecture at the back and watched the acne prone pick at their faces, those with the worse acne touched their faces 32 times in an hour, the clearest complexions didn't touch their faces even once. I have circumstantial evidence that acne is the result of dermatophyte transfer from hands to face...where it does not get washed off and is well fed by hormones, sweat a
nd oil...just a hypothesis... But it would explain why vitamin A is so effective as vitamin causes skin to remove dermatophytes.
The secret is never to touch the spots
Tips on how to treat acne and achieve perfect clear skin in as little as 7 days?

Emergency Blemish Treatment: Soak a cotton ball in warm salt water; press on top of the blemish for 3 minutes. Dab a bit of honey on it and let sit for another 10-15 minutes. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

Try putting some hydrogen peroxide on it, then a thin layer of TAO, AKA Triple Antibiotic Ointment. I have found that is always good for clearing things up overnight.

Everybody gets pimples. Even your date. Joke about it before he gets a chance to notice it and be cool. It happens. He probably has a story too. If worse comes to worse, wrap a towel around your head and grab a slurpee. JK

I like Youpink's answer. Put ice on it to reduce the swelling too. It won't be completely gone by tomorrow, but these things can help reduce it.

Talking from experience, I have teen age boys at home. put toothpaste on it over night. It draws all infection out and reduces the swelling.

if it is a pimple or a zit, try Noxema, my sister uses that a lot and it helps her pimple problem.
Good Luck!
