ok calm down please, lol. First of all put 2 fingers in opposite dirrections to the black head to squeeze it out. For a pimple you can scratch the tip of it and then squeeze it out. It may need more squeezing if it is a really deep one. Apply 3% hydrogen peroxide solution to both black head and pimple areas, with cottonballs, hold for a minute or two on area, do it maybe 3 times few times a day. Hydrogen peroxide 3% solution is meant for cleansing wounds, but also for drying up stuff, like cold sores, or pimples, but it helps if you have the pimple opened up and squeezed out before applying hydrogen peroxide 3% solution (this isn't the hair bleach one, tha one is 6% solution) You can also regularly wash your face with warm to hot water and scrub a bit, to get rid of old skin and plugged up pores: the plugged up pores are what cause the blackhead or pimple or whitehead. But the blackhead and white head are already kind of dry, they are more advanced than a pimple. Maybe you could put some polysporin antibiotic ointment on the pimple, after squeezing it, and applying hydrogen peroxide 3 % solution. That will make it heal faster. You can always use the liquid makeup to cover any dark rings under your eyes and blemishes on your face. For dark rings under eyes apply concealer first, with finger, dab it in the region, and then use the liquid makeup that is the closest to your skin shade for your face, that goes double for the concealer, make sure it is the closest to the shade of your skin on your face. There now you can relax. But if you don't have the concealer, which comes in a lipstick tube, or the liquid makeup, you better go out and buy it now for Monday.

Zits happen to everyone. The fact that this is your first is already a great thing; you're lucky. Most people get them regularly. You keep doing what you do and you should be relatively zit-free for the future, too. As for the one you have, either cleaning or a good ol' fashioned pop the zit.

Since it's a blackhead, you want to clean out the dirt. Try using an exfoliator like St. Ive's. Use it once a week.
And while the St. Ive's will definitely cut down on how big and prominent it is, the blackhead probably won't be gone by Monday. But chill out, because everyone gets pimples at one time or another.
