What is a quick way to get rid of pimples?
Wash your face daily and with a Q-tip put tee-tree oil on the pimples. I know this sounds weird, but believe me it works! And also eat at least one fruit a day because they have anti-oxidants in them that help get rid of acne. Also avoid oil based make-up because the oil will just make it worse.
The only way not to have them is to use a hair removal method which takes the hairs out below the surface. Cream or waxing.
Actuallysome of the "black dots" you are referring to could indeed be clogged pores,..I have had a few myself. The only thing is when you squeeze it out you not only get the dirt or hard puss, but you also get a hair. These dots never seem to go away with shaving or waxing, as dead skin has trapped them in. I have noticed that some can be very deep. I have actually scarred up pretty bad from this so be careful. I did find that a medicated apricot scrub from dollar general works great to reduce the amount of blacckheads I got,...It is $2 and it it the DG brand. Hope that helps a little more.
The rash could be a mild reaction to medication that he's been taking or due to the fever itself. If the rash does not spread, and is not itchy or changing color then it will clear up on it's own. I would not advise using any creams or lotions to treat this unless it does become itchy or worsen. Leave it alone. Also, fevers, colds, and illness in general can deplete certain vitamins and minerals in the body so I would suggest that you pay attention to good nutrition for your child at this time. If the rash becomes itchy or changes then call your pediatrician and have on hand a list of all medications that your child has taken....including anything over the counter. Could be "giannotti crosti" My child had this and it was diagnosed by a dermatologist. It initially develops as a result of a virus.
It is different. Whiteheads (closed comedones) are non-inflammatory pimples or comedones. Whiteheads form because of the congestion of oil or sebum and dead cells inside the hair follicle. They remain beneath the skin's surface and . do not get much oxygen, which is why they remain a white or yellowish color. Blackheads (opened comedones) are non-inflammatory pimples or comedones. Blackheads occur where the pore opens to the surface. The sebum, which contains the skin pigment melanin, oxidizes and turns a brown or black color. They appear commonly on the chin, nose, back, or ears.
Why do you get pimple inside your eyes?
Why?
Make-up. Make-up is simply the answer. Eye pimples differ from general acne. Unlike facial pimples, eye acne is generally red and irritated. This can cause the entire eye area to swell and look pretty bad. There is no amount of makeup that can cover an eye pimple. Additionally, with eye pimples, there is an increased chance of eye infections. Pimples that are near the eye need special treatment. Using a regular acne treatments may be too harsh for the delicate skin around the eye. Also, any treatment that you use so close to the eyes can be harmful.
How to treat them:
The best thing to do about an eye pimple is to give it time. Apply a warm compress several times a day if you can to speed healing. Since eye pimples can be particularly noxious, you will surely have an urge to squeeze that zit. It is important to avoid this if at all possible. Many eye zits tend to pop on their own, so you don't need to help them. If an eye zit does pop, thoroughly cleanse the eye area so that you don't get an eye infection. Many people complain about getting a pimple in the eye lashes. Usually, these are not pimples, but instead they are ingrown hairs. Like an eye pimple, use a warm compress and keep the eye area thoroughly cleansed to avoid an eye infection.
How to avoid them:
To keep from getting eye pimples in the first place, be sure to thoroughly remove all of your makeup at the end of every day. Use a makeup remover that is specifically made to remove eye makeup. These products are usually gentler than cleansers and won't harm the eyes or the delicate eye area. However, as much as you try, you may still be prone to eye pimples. For some reason, some individuals get them more often than others regardless of how rigid their skin care regimen is. If you are one of these people, you will have to fight harder than the rest of us to keep eye pimples away. Be sure to try changing the products you use on your eyes to see if they are the cause for getting so many of them.

Wash your legs with body acne soap and never apply lotions to area where pimples occur. This will help you not sweat and keep your legs from getting over hidration. Try not to get shampoo on your legs and affected area. This can clog poors and leaves pimples worse! If you shave with shaving cream only use cream everyother day. This can help you from getting burns or to much hidration. THANKS
if there isn't a clinic nearby you can always suck on it. Just make sure you don't swallow the poison. Depending on the snake, if it isn't very venomous you might just have sometime to call for help.
Concealer is for covering up acne or acne marks. It doesn't work very well on acne scars because they are traditionally holes in your skin. As far as concealer goes you definitely want to get the good stuff. Cheap concealer can look caky and make your acne more obvious. You also have to make sure to get the right shade. Get the same shade as your skin or one shade lighter. When applying it try not to get it on the skin around the blemish, because it will create a halo, highlighting the imperfection.
Hope this helps!

White pimple by your nipple what does this mean?
I am a 45 yr old male I have this white head pimple on my nimple.What does this mean
It might be hard to get rid of it completely within a day, but there are some things you can do to help it along. First, clean it. Use a face wash. If there's bacteria or an infection or it's dirty, it will only stay around for a longer amount of time. Put an acne cream on, one specifically for healing spots quickly. You could try covering it lightly with makeup, but use a hypo-allergenic, non-clogging, non-oil-based type. It won't clog the pore much further, and make sure you wash this off at night!!!!!!!! Some creams (especially those with a green undertone) are good at helping fade away redness.
