Does putting hot/warm water on your face shrink pimples?

Answer 4

Warm water opens up pores on the skin which is great for washing your face, hands or hair as the case may be. warm water on your head will allow your scalp to absorb the water & vitamins from your shampoo/conditioner to create a healthy flake free scalp and hair. Warm water on your body with the help of a loofah will help you to exfoliate thus leaving your skin feeling fresh and soft because you are scraping the dead rough cells away.

Remember, zits & whiteheads are caused by clogged pores on the skin. Warm water on your face opens up the pores which would allow you to wash and exfoliate your skin thus leaving your face soft & decreasing the likelihood of you getting more zits. By using a face wash you will help keep your face clean thus causing the acne you have to disappear.

Toothpaste on acne works great. Just do not use the "gel " type of toothpaste as that is ineffective. The toothpaste works by drying out the zit causing it to shrink & go away.
