Gather all materials beforehand -- see "Things You'll Need" below. You might want to store them in a waterproof resealable bag, such as Ziploc. I'd recommend wearing either old clothes or a bathrobe over whatever you are wearing. There is a definite possibility this is going to spill. After you have found everything on you checklist, head to a large, flat, waterproof surface. This is probably your bathroom. Having this room be private is highly advised; you can't just say, "Get out, I'm flattening a pimple," can you?

Things You'll Need
- 3 or more cotton balls
- Lukewarm tap water
- Cup to hold the water in
- Salt

The Method
1. Salt the water thoroughly -- much more than you think it needs.
2. Dip one cotton ball in the salt water.
3. Wait for 30 - 60 seconds.
4. Squeeze out excess water out until it is damp, but not dripping.
5. Place the damp cotton ball over your large, oh-my-goodness-I-cannot-go-to-... zit. If you have several of these grouped together, try to place the cotton ball over them all.
6. Glance at your watch/clock. Wait exactly three minutes.
7. Remove the cotton ball after the time is up. The zit seems to be nearly gone, but it is only the top that has dissolved. Your acne is still there.
8. Take the other two cotton balls and place them on either side of the despised pimple.
9. Slowly, move them closer together until the tiny bump is flattened. Congrats! You've just conquered that giant of a pimple -- forever!
10. Apply honey on the infected area & go to sleep!!

Tips
*Don't forget the last 3 steps -- they are crucial.
*Be sure to follow these steps closely. Dipping a cottonball in fresh water as opposed to salt will not work, for instants.
* You might want to bring a book -- either waterproof or one that you do not care about being splattered in water. Those three minutes can get boring.
* This is your best bet for monster zits that simply sneak up on you. For long-term healthy skin, cleansing and toning is also important.

Warnings
* Please, PLEASE, do not assume this is permission to "pop" pimples. Doing so can cause major scarring. Please don't pop them.
* If you stop after the top is dissolved, I must warn you: it WILL come back! Maybe not in the next five minutes, but during the course of an hour, it will come back!

If you feel new pimples erupting, ice it! Hold an ice cube over the area for about 5-10 minutes. It REALLY works!!!

If you have too many pimples, I recommend you to try Carley's Clear & Smooth!! It's CHEAPER & BETTER than Proactive!!

Answer 3

It depends how bad your skin is and what you have tried before. Generally, skin responds to benzoyl peroxide which is used in proactive solutions. If your skin is not responsive to benzoyl peroxide you may want to you something containing salicylic acid like Spot Healer from Clinique. If your skin is extremely bad, you may want to see a dermatologist for an RX, but they generally dry your skin out so you that would be fit for the most extreme cases. Pick a regimen and stick with it for at least 2-3 months. If your regimen doesn't work, try something else. I used the Clinique 3 step program and acne solutions by Clinique, and when you wash your face twice a day like you are supposed to, it works well. Make sure that you also use an exfoliator during this time to reduce long term scarring, and try not to pick them.

Answer 4

Proactive, it makes the healing faster but it doesnt really prevent new pimples from forming

Answer 5

Use tea tree oil products. They dry up the excess oil on your skin that causes acne. They are available at The Body Shop.

Answer 6

washing your face with mild soap. there are medications you can take or medical procedures like levulan. I think it depends on they type you have. sometimes it is just taking the time to wash your face twice a day and sometimes you need stronger prescriptions to help you.
