Yes - do not pick the scab - it will likely cause scarring that you'll be dealing with for a long time. Instead, wear the scab like a badge of honor, reminding yourself througout the day that you are more than acne or a scab. Tell yourself that a simple scab can't stop you from anything you want to do. You are bigger than that!

I agree, let it heal. It is a natural force that after a injure to skin, 1st. a scab must form, do not remove, or you will start all over again.
After scab comes off it will be first reddish and little at a time goes from red to pink and lighter pink, until it fades.
There is no magic cure. It must go true this process!

Don't do anything. Let it be. A scab is a natural bandage. If you remove it, then the old zit could cause another scab to come in to place, and/or it can cause a scar. Let it go. Best of luck to you.

cover it up with a skin tone cover up. eventually after a while when your skin underneath the scab heals, you can take the scab off and the skin will be healed so then if theres a little redness (which there may be) put your skin tone cover up makeup on it.

break open a capsule of vitamin e and rub on the sore...it will soften the scab and it has great healing properties!!

NO TWEEKING ON YOUR FACE WOULD BE THE PREVENTATIVE
