How to get rid of pimples fast?

Question

i need to get rid of pimples fast and i don't have time to go to the store to get face products is there another way?

also does toothpaste really work on pimples?

Answer 1

Yes toothpaste helps. For a quick fix you can place a warm wet tea bag over the area or a cotton ball dipped in lemon juice (don't use lemon juice if you have a sensitive skin). Check out http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/ for more info and home remedies.  

Answer 2

yes toothpaste works for me!

clean your face before you go to bed dry it with a towel..

then put toothpaste it might sting for like a minute..

sleep, wake up wash your face with warm water..dry it then put face cream on. :)

Answer 3

I heard Milk of Magnesia works.  Just a suggestion

Answer 4

I was going to suggest toothpaste anyway.  I've done it, and it didn't really work.  Got kind of sticky.  Everybody has different skin, and it may work for some people, and not other.  As for one person it works for... Fergie happens to use toothpaste on pimples.  BTW... your skin can get used to certain products from shampoo to facial care, so don't overuse.  (And I'm not just talking about toothpaste.)  Also... how fast are we talking here?  Hours?  Days?  Well, if we're saying hours, chances are, you might not find a way to get rid of 'em, but you can (in fact) cover them up.  What I find that works best for covering up, is to use a little bit of liquid foundation on just the spot that the pimple is on.  

Answer 5

Uhh yea tootpaste only helps it but it does not make it entirely go away....but i heard tooth past can cause blemishes in that area...so if you wanna take the chance

Good luck

Answer 8

rub a lot of vegetable oil on your face and watch them disappear

Answer 9

you can find a makeup that is the same color as your skin, pop the pimple, then put a little of that on it.

Also, if you open it up, then cake a little soap on it. Leave the soap on for like 10 minutes, then wash it off with warm water, will make it go away faster.

Answer 11

Answer 12

Squeeze squeeze and oh yea squeeze, untill your mirror is covered in gob of white stuff, then clean the mirror off, wipe up all the extra blood that came out with the puss, and there u go, the pimple is gone. hope i helped =)---,

Answer 13

cut a lemon in half, put salt on it, and rub it on your face. leave it on for a few minutes, and then wash it off.

it should make them disappear in.. maybe a day??

Answer 14

If it's red and puffy, put some ice on it to calm down the inflamation. Make sure you do that on a clean face though, or the dirt and oil on your face will get locked into your pores making it worse...

Answer 15

You really cannot beat warm water plus PLAIN soap, like Dove, used often. (Detergent-free, fragrance-free, not antibacterial soaps are best; NOT Ivory, Suave, Irish Spring, Dial, etc.: those tend to dry-out the skin). Use a washcloth & rub gently. Save your money on all the OTC pimple-aids.

Your hormones play a large part in these body changes. Eliminating fried & greasy foods may help.

Answer 16

Toothpaste kinda works, it just reduces the redness. There is really no way to get rid of pimples fast, they naturally take time to go away.  

Answer 17

tooth paste works in 2-3 days

try scratchin the head off your pimple..maybe a lil skin

put toothpaste on  

Answer 18

well ur a girl so the fastest way is to just use cover up i guess, then worry about them later like b4 bed, try using a cream mask, like were you cover ur face in cream/tar sold from beauty places, let it dry then wash it off or just follow the directions.  they work great, the morning after ur face should clear up a lot.  

Answer 19

thanks for asking i am 14 and i need to know that

Answer 20

i was gonna reccomend tpaste.

it kinda stings and it does shrink them a bit.

i leave it on over night but i only apply it occasionally b/c it was made for your teeth and not your face

Answer 21

if you leave a tiny bit of toothpaste on a pimple overnight it dries it up so it doesnt look so inflamed

Answer 22

I would definitely suggest you try SWISS glutathione bar. Its actually a soap intended for skin lightening but it really works well against pimples and the maks they leave behind! it dries them out easily in just 2-3days! a lot of people buy it for that purpose even if they dont have to lighten their skin. check out

Answer 23

mhm toothpaste drys out the pimple (which is what you want to do)

but uhm proactive refining mask , works wonders.

Answer 24

toothpaste, is the best, but of course just remember never use the red and blue or green or wahtever coloured ones, only use the pure white ones, like crest does.

Answer 25

yeah toothpaste works, i tried it but yew have to leave it on for lyke 7hours

Answer 26

I'm not sure if toothpaste actually helps pimples or not.  If you don't have time to go to the store there isn't much you can do.  Make sure you wash your face often and don't touch it while you have dirty hands.  Also, don't touch your pimple(s) then touch another place on your face because it will make them spread.  

If you already have "polysporn" in your house, you could try that.  Otherwise, when you do have time to go to the store, you could buy "proactive" or oxy cover up.  

Something that really helps pimples is "benzoyl peroxide"  You need at least 2.5%.  Also, using a good moisturizer should help.  Sorry that most of these things need to be bought, but I don't see many other solutions.  

Don't drink too much pop or eat to much sugar, I suppose.

Hope this helped! :-)
