How do I help conceal a pimple?

Question

I don't have any access to makeup or anything like that, but anything that would help reduce the redness rather quickly would be helpful. I'm looking for more homemade treatments rather than store bought ones. Thank you!

Answer 1

Take a Q-tip, soak it in clear eyes (eye drops) and put the Q tip in the freezer for a hour or so...just long enough for it to freeze.  Then hold the Q-tip over the pimple, rub it over the entire red area!  The clear eyes solution helps with the redness and the coldness shrinks the pimple!  

Also i have heard that if you have Preparation H for hemorrhoids that if you rub it on it shrinks the pimple back in like it does for a hemorrhoid but i have never been so desperate to try!  

I am scared about the toothpaste advice you got, be very careful-- unless its just PLAIN toothpaste,dont use it!  The whiteners and baking sodas and all that strong stuff has been said to eat craters in ppls face bc its made to penetrate the enamel of your teeth!  I would avoid the toothpaste!!

After all is said and done, you can put a lil baby powder on the pimple and this will absorb/hide the shiny-ness of the pimple and make it much less noticeable as well as cover some of the redness too!

i know how you feel trust..use some natural ingredients and im sure you will see good results. they are, banana skin, honey, lemon juice, rose water, gram flour (mixed with honey and rose water or just natural water.)

Also drink loads of water and wash face twice a day and don't keep picking or touching spots and use the ingredients separate or mix few of them they not harmful and when you wash face start by washing with hot water then cold.

I cant explain to you what all of them contain or do scientifically even thou they have been proven but all i can say is they will work and make face cleaner and softer and get rid of spots and blackheads.. best one is honey and making paste of gram flour mixed with honey,rose water etc..

i no how you feel and that but try it you got nothing to lose but best is if you make the paste use it twice a day and keep it cold in fridge or window. They will work just keep faith and stay away from alot of sun and keep hair away from face. Hope this helps because its helped me and alot of people i know in real and on here . MY BEST IS HONEY AND BANANA SKIN X OTHERS AND ALL OF THEM HAVE WORKED BUT DEPENDS ON SKIN TYPE BUT IT WILL GET BETTER X

Answer 3

When I have a particularly bad pimple I make tea, and then use the teabag and put it on my pimple (while its still hot). It exfoliates the skin and helps the pimple go away faster.

Answer 4

ye i heard toothpaste helps, is best to put it on before you go to bed and take it off in the morning. Whatever you do don't squeeze it or mess with it, it will only make it worse and more red. Tbh there's not much you can do if your trying to use home treatments. You should just go out and buy a concealer.

Answer 5

i've never tried it, but i've heard toothpaste can make them go down.
