I would suggest using a Q-tip to dab a little on the blemish.

If you really want to get rid of a pimple.. put toothpaste on it overnight and it draws the infection to the top and you can use a very warm (hot) wash cloth to roll to the side and pop it. Do not squeeze it or it will swell and be sore.

If you know that you are not allergic to tea tree oil -
for the treatment of moderate acne
the topical application of 5% tea tree oil
has shown an effect comparable to 5% benzoyl peroxide with less risk of adverse drug reaction, albeit with slower onset of action.

i actually used to have a stick of it (it looked alot like a lipstick). i bought it at a sally beauty supply store.
I didnt have much luck with it clearing up pimples though. I had more luck with regular rubbing alcohol - you just have to use alot of moisturizer with the rubbing alcohol because it dries out your skin a little bit.

Drink alot of H2O in the morning & eat alot veggies daily. Try to avoid oily food such as fastfood etc..because they contain high amount of saturated fat which cause even more breakout.
H2O & veggie help to replenish & rejuvenate your skins, keep them fresh & healthy.
