boil some water. put it in a bowl. put a towel over your head and your face above the bowl of boiling water for about 5-7 min. (dont stick your face in the water! just let the steam get to your face.) The hot steam will open up your pores, the "white bit" will rise up to the head of the pimple. Now, dont squeeze the living hell out of your pimple just gently squeeze it out.(you dont want it turning red and then start to bleed which will just clog the pimple even more.) now go wash your face with COLD water. This will cause your pores to instantly snap shut, so that no more bacteria can get in there to cause another pimple.) Now PAT, dont wipe, your face dry with a clean towel. Then put toothpaste on the pimple and leave it there for 5-10 min. This will dry out the pimple or whats left of it. Then go ahead and wash the toothpaste off. This whole process while dry your face out like a *****. so make sure you have a face moisturizer (not one of those oily body ones) to put on your face.

Number one, today isn't Valentine's Day. Tomorrow is. So it's not as bad as it seems.
Number two, DO NOT POP IT! It will be really tempting, but do not do it!
Number three, apply a reliable zit-zapping cream that will reduce redness and heal the pimple quickly (Zapzyt works like a charm).
Number four, when you put on your makeup, pat concealer over the pimple with your finger and blend then dust some translucent powder over it to make it look more natural. Be sure not to put on too much makeup though or it won't heal quickly and will look more obvious!
Number five, every few hours press a warm washcloth GENTLY around and on the pimple. This will reduce redness.
Number six, if you have a great smile and a good attitude people won't care so much about your pimple!

before you go to bed tonight, make sure you wash your face, then after all your face cleaning regimen, dab a bit of toothpaste on the pimple...not the gel toothpaste..the regular white paste.
The pimple should shrink and may even completely go away....I don't know how it works, but it does...
Trust me girl, I HAD a pimple on my jawline, put toothpaste on it last night and woke up and it shrunk in size...one more night of toothpaste on the pimple and it should be gone by tomorrow

OK here...
-You could wash i with warm and face wash water try to pick it with Q-tips then put toothpaste on it
or
-Use clean and clears advatage acne spot treatment.
or
-Wash your face, use toner, put ice on it for a like 3 min then put cover up or concealer on it, the one that heals blemishes i think usually the good ones are the green sticks.
or
-Use the ZENO pimple thing

Get very hot water and dip a wash clothe in it and then keep steaming your pimple for a very long time eventually it should pop then put medicine or toothpaste on it.

Oh man, a goose egg? You don't get rid of those fast. Leave it alone or it will turn purple and sick.
If it had a pustule on it (believe it or not) cold mint toothpaste left on it overnight seems to do the trick.

first, stay calm. next, wash your fac using just a little bit of soap and a wash clothe. then put on skin milk on your skin and wash your face before you go to bed. if this doesnt help, then put makeup on. but most of all DONT TOUCH THE PIMPLE!!

Here i am too your rescue!
1. use some dry skin cream (sounds crazy but works)
2. scratch it off so it doesn't grow then cover the redness with cover up
3. or just wait for it to go away
i recommend doing steps one and too once you scratch it off use some no sent lotion like dry skin cream and place it on when you sleep of what ever and it should be gone!
_Hope i Helped_

Use something with salicylic (sp?) acid in it and quick. Like a daytime spot treatment. Good luck and happy V-Day!
