ok I've been getting pimples on my cheeks and I popped them, now I don't know what to do??? I need them to be gone by two weeks cause I have to go somewhere very important. After I popped them I put acne medicine, mixed with toothpaste and Neosporing, I left it on for an hour, I then washed my face with hot water and then cold. Does anyone know what I can do besides not touch my pimples. Is there any good products out there that I can use so they could disappear. Pleasse Help!

Okay, don't use the nair cream anymore and get a product called : proactive acne solution. I'm sure you've heard of it, but it really works. No Joke! Good luck and also wash your face regularly. Keep you skin nice. It'll be important later on in life.
ProActive!
or ProAcne!

Here are some quick things you can do from home to help you get rid of you acne.
Home Remedy Acne Skin Care Tips
Tip 1: Get a bowl and mix together some baking soda, honey, and olive oil. Wet your face, and massage the mixture into your skin for 30 to 60 seconds. The mixture should feel grainy, but not rough.
Tip 2: Place a warm washcloth on your face for 10 to 15 seconds, to open and unclog pores.
Tip 3: Get some Aloe Vera Gel from the nearest whole foods store and use it as facial moisturizer.
Besides doing this, or buying Accutane or Proactiv, several of my clients have used No More Shame 24 hour Acne Eliminating Kit. The kit contains a good all-natural face scrub that has ingredients that will help your complexion. It works well because it contains essential oils. Essentials are extremely potent, yet gentle solutions that kill bacteria and fungus and control your skin's oil production. This is critical for you because you need to balance your skin's oil, not strip it. The scrub also has aloe and vitamin e, which are good for your skin. My clients' with oily skin have seen drastic improvements in their skin tone, greasiness, and texture by using the scrub. You can find it online at wwwdiscoverb4acom.

Proactiv Solution. It seems like it doesn't work, but really, it does. I've used it since December and my skin is glowing! Also, instead of popping pimples, extract. This can be done at your dermatolist's or at home. Extractors can usually be found at Target, CVS, Walgreens. Apply a hot washcloth to pimple, hold for a few minutes. This will open the pore and make it easier to extract. Then, push the extractor onto the pore until all of the stuff comes out and it begins to bleed a little. Wipe off excess stuff, then apply a cleaner or something of that sort- but nothing with alchohol, that will make it spread. Be sure to clean the extractor before/after you use it. Good luck!!

first of all, to state the obvious, stop using nair, you must be allergic to it or something. and don't worry if you don't pick at them theyll be gone by two weeks. only pop them if they're not deep. know what I mean? if they're deep and you try to pop it it will get very red and may start to bleed. otherwise popping them should be fine, but DO NOT pick at them after you do. just leave them alone and theyll go away.
and try getting the AcneFree brand "acne and blackhead terminator" its a little tube you put directly on it. put a dab on at night and by the morning (this may sound gross) you can just peel it off. it may be red after you peel it so don't do it right before going somewhere. if they're really big pimples it could take a couple more days but the stuff really does work get it at target or walgreens or something.
btw--the entire AcneFree skin care stuff is great. it's pretty much exactly likeProActive but cheaper
good luck

I got the same problem!! I used a lot of "acne" products out there. ProActiv, Neutrogena's three system, clearsil, etc. Nothing worked perfectly, Neoutrogena was close though.
I got sick of all these products and followed one of my friend's advice. She told me to use antibacterial soap (I have the Neutrogena brand) followed by a moistruizer. I've been using this for 2 days now and my face is really clearing up!! You should give it a shot. It's less expensive too :)

I myself have pimple issues... I like to use Tea Tree Oil. It dries it up quickly, just dab a little with a Qtip and be patient for about a few days and it will dry out. No need for POPPING!!! Very bad thing to do. Buy it at any health food store, Whole foods, anywhere healthy. ENJOY!

Be careful using proactive. It works great as long as you use it but if you ever cant afford it or just run out for a while you will break out 10 times worse than before. Try a good multivitamin to fight the problem from the inside.

dont pop them. although it seems like the right thing to do all it will do is leave scars. trust me ive done it. what i can tell you is to buy proactive. its really great i have it and i no longer get breakouts. its costly but it is really worth it. on the good side it doesnt take long to work. i got it and i had really bad skin. in about 5 days it was almost perfectly clear. otherwise you can go out and buy some cheap product such as olay face cleasner pads ( something like that ) . cheaper things work for me alot. i hope i helped and good luck :]

that will leave you crates and scars but you just have to let it heal you already damaged the skin unless you can go to a drug store and get an alternative to at home microdermabrasion. it exfoliates your skin. Takes dead skin cells away. It always heals it faster for me and helps the skin to be a little smoother. i know you want to get rid of it faster but you can only exfoliate what the instructions say to. the more you do it than the recommendation you will produce more oil and cause your skin to breakout more. so only do what it says.
after this incident make sure to get a really great formula for skin care system a cleanser, toner, and moisturizer. this helps your pores not to clog and keeps your face oil free and shine free for up to 12 hours. find something similar to this it's compared to lancome, and estee lauder. http://cgarcia1.qbeautyzone.com/products/product.aspx?itemno=E5018

Pimples are pustular eruptions, localized abscessed formation and local inflammatory conditions of the dermis and epidermis skin layers.
I know people who had succes using the Dead Sea Acne soap. It dried up skin blemishes and let the skin heal.
They also used a natural cleanser, a skin toner, and a weekly mud mask.
