The old toothpaste trick works well, but obviously you'd want to wait until bedtime, put a bit of toothpaste on it, and go to sleep.
It dries it out from the inside without making it flakey and gross like putting alcohol does.

A great way to keep those from coming back is to use an aspirin cleanse.
You might want to try it and see how well it works for you. It's great for oily/acne prone skin.

Take two or three uncoated aspirin (a dollar a bottle at drug stores) and put them on a saucer.
Use a regular spoon to drop a few drops of water (don't do too much) onto the aspirin and let them start to disolve.
Then take regular honey (i like the honey bear kind, because it has the squeeze top) and put two or so drops of honey on top of the aspirin.
Use the spoon to crush it up (leave some tiny chunks, you don't want a paste) and mix it up.

Then you just use your fingers and apply it to your face. It works as a great exfoliator and the aspirin helps the acne and oil. Start out doing this only twice a week (as it can lead to dry skin if you use too much) and then gradually go up to maybe 3-4 times a week.

Your skin will feel great even after the first time, but if you decide to try it make sure you do this for at least 3 weeks. You'll see noticable results!

Thanks so much Sweetly!!!

I will try that for sure!!

Can I put it on the pimple I have now??

I think the toothpaste thingy gets my pimple a big scabby..so Im a bit scared to do it!
I just dont want anymore scarring!

You can start doing the aspirin now.
Pretty much any kind of home treatment will leave the pimple pretty dry, though. Products that are made to zap those things are typically all pretty drying. You could get one of those Clearasil (or simliar brand) spot treatment. It's all full of salicylic acid and they kill those pimples pretty quickly.

Or you could just take a single aspirin and use one drop of water, crush it and put it on the pimple like you would with the toothpaste trick!

Wow....I have never heard this. I get cystic acne pretty bad so I may have to try this. Thank you!!

Also what kind of toothpaste...any kind?

You know what...the lemon juice freshly squeesed and out of fridge seems to work!!
At the moment you feel you maybe getting one of those big ones ...use the lemon juice as a toner all over your face and keep it on...
IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!

Do it at night and in the morning and it wont even come up!!!

Its amazing!!! AND CHEAP!!

I have finally found products that actually work! I purchased the Continuously Clear Adult Regimen Starter Kit from HSN. Then I added the Serious Skin Care A-Copper Peptide Duo; Copper Oil Control Serum and Cream. These products balance out my skin perfectly. I am so happy to have products that will hydrate my skin without causing breakouts and control the oil.

I use the generic brand of Proactive. You can find it in any pharmacy or WalMart. It works just as well and is only like $18 for the whole kit which lasts me about 2 months. Doesn't seem to dry it out as much as other products!
