leave them alone. The #1 cause of acne is touching your face. There are so many bacterias on your hands and then you go touch your face- open up that area and all sorts of bacteria get into your skin.
Try the new clearasil 3 day products (it's at all stores)

You should leave them alone.
If you keep picking at them, you will run the risk of having an even bigger breakout, or infection and picking can lead to acne scarring. I have seen some very bad faces and people who have deep acne scars because they have picked.
If you are not cleaning your skin regularly, you need to start with a acne cleanser, toner and gel based moisturizer. Try doing it morning and night to help get rid of the oil, dirt and make-up.
Change your pillow case every 2 days. Put a fresh one on, then the next night flip it. This will help with any bacteria that may be transferred from your pillow case back to your face.
A Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% cream is beneficial for an over night treatment for the odd blemish, but is not something to be used every night or all over the face, as it thins the skin too much.
Good luck

Stop picking. If you can't, at least wash your skin after you pop a zit. Then apply a soothing cream on top to help your skin heal.

Right, it helps if the skin pores are open, warm wet wringed washcloth, do the picking, take a shower, that keeps secondary infections down. do not use acnemeds on broken skin.
General healing..... your body needs a healthy immune system, getting enough vitamins from food is near impossible... cover your needs with vittabs, and no, they neednt be expensive.

Wash the area with soap, rinse well and wash again. I think a tiny bit of sun and better food might help too.
