is peroxide good for your pimples??like getting rid of them?

Answer 1

i don't think it can hurt you, my (grown now) sons used it for theirs and it help some, they also used hot face cloths too before the peroxide, they dabbed alcohol on them as well, this all worked for them. good luck to you/

Answer 2

I'm not too sure about peroxide, but I use rubbing alcohol as an astringent everyday. Toothpaste also works to dry up pimples, use any kind except the gel type. I use St.Ives Medicated Scrub to wash my face and I have had good results. I used to use Pro-Active, but found this to be just as good and alot cheaper. Good luck and hopefully you will find something that will work for you.

Answer 3

H2O2- Hydrogen Peroxide is not good!! for pimples...This if done will actually SLOW the healing process by removing..new cells from growing.. will kill bacteria.. but also new cell growth... HERE ya go:
THIS WORKS FAST & CHEAP!!!
I used Tetracyclin, Proactive, Retina A and had many expensive facials with less than good results.
This has worked for me and many many other happy people. Go to pharm.,Drug store, or Walmart,
buy "PURPOSE" bar of soap - Blue box - Made by Johnson & Johnson - wash your face with this
2-3x's per day. Also pick up a LOW strength Benzoyl-peroxide cream, apply the cream by dabbing
to the individual blemishes.... DONT rub it in works using a oxidation/reduction reaction...DONT over
use this or put anywhere else on your face.. It will cause drying and make you look worse. Also, If need
which probably will for moisture ASK FOR "NUTRADERM lotion" - the orginal not the new stuff, this works
great and wont clog pores or leave a residue on your skin...Additonal TIPS: acne, pimples, etc are
frequently cause by a bacteria or hormone issues.... DONT PICK POP POKE (your hands are the
dirtiest part of your body) and will cause: infections, spreading of germs, more breakouts and scarring
DONT EVER listen to people online who tell you to scrub your sensative skin or use harsh chemicals
such as: Lemon juice, vinagar, alcohol, etc... DONT EVER use that APRICOT CRAP!!! DONT USE
PROACTIVE- this is expensive and harsh it may kill the bacteria cause also Benzoyl based wash but
will irritate skin and cause bleaching of face and neck.... Other similar treatments may work.. also
things such as Accutane but have serious side effects.... THIS WORKS FAST AND CHEAP!!! I no
longer get expensive facials, take oral antibiotics, or even NEED makeup... I am very happy - Have
very good skin... and have many many other happy friends... THANKS again to my WONDERFUL
DERMATOLOGIST... TRY THIS!! GOOD LUCK.... PS. "PURPOSE" costs about $3

Answer 4

I dont think using straight up peroxide would be good! Have you seen what it does to hair?!!

Depending on how severe the pimples are, you can try the pill - just tell your doc it's because you want to clear your skin (that way he can give you the right one - there's lots of different ones).... if not, you can also try proactiv!

Answer 5

Peroxide? Noooo. I dont think that would be good. Try a clearasil wash.

Answer 6

It works for some people but rubbing alcohol works better but it has the possiblity to dry too much of your skin uot if you use it in more than one spot.
