I'm going on a date tomorrow with a face full of acne! What can I do? Help!!?

Question

I have a HUGE bump on my chin- so big it's distinguished in my shadow! On both side of my face are at least 6 pimples that are big, red, white, or just distracting. When he first saw me, I was lookin' good. Now I'm just ewww. I really like this guy and I want him to be proud to have me on his arm so what can I do... please I'll try anything!!! Our date is Wednesday at 6pm.

Answer 1

I wouldn't go on the date if I were you.

Because the whole time your gonna think about your acne.

And your basically gonna feel like everyone is looking right at it.

Just go next week untill your skin clears. See a dermatologist.

Good Luck!  

Answer 2

clearasil, cream

thats all you can do

never try to cover it with make up it'll turn out 10x worse

Answer 3

Okay if you have any acne creams that you use that work, put HUGE globs of it on the bad zits, that usually will make them go down a lot.

I also heard the putting toothpaste on a zit will make the swelling go down but I'd research that more

Answer 4

Did you try windex? All kidding aside. There is probably nothing you can do overnight but if you can go to the proactive web site and try it. My son had pimples,over the counter stuff did not work. he tried proactive and that stuff WORKS! He got it within a week. If you want to try ti you definaly wont be sorry...

Answer 5

OK- this sounds nuts, but I SWEAR it works.

You can make a mask that has the same active ingredient as acne creams, but TEN TIMES STRONGER by grinding up a few uncoated aspirin and mixing into a paste with a couple of drops of honey and water.

I know it sounds crazy, but the active ingredient in acne creams is salicylic acid, which is same thing aspirin is made of. I always use this for emergencies and it will literally clear your face overnight. If you still don't believe me, you can check out some other reviews of it here:

And also at Acne.org

Just give it a try, you will be amazed with the results.

Answer 6

Well nothing really works for me that well but to reduce the size a little bit take some baking soda and water and make a paste, then use it as a scrub for about 30 seconds, then keep it on for another 30 seconds then just wipe off with water. before you go to bed and be sure to use it hours before your date because it will leave ur face red for awhile. it will work for awhile but it didint satisfy me.

Answer 7

try neutrogena clear pore cleaner/mask...do the mask for like 30 minutes and then do neutrogena on the spot treatment overnight, these arent miracles but hopefully it'll bring em down some....but after this, try the regimen on acne.org, it worked for me and i tried EVERYTHING!!!!  do it for 2 weeks religiously (u will have slight breakout first 3-4 days but dont stop!!!!) and u will see results, you will never want to stop using it, after the month, use their AHA cream, its really good....

Answer 8

Well maybe if you stop stressing over it they will come off.  The moore you stress the more you will get.  The only thing that you can do is wash your face and put some acne cream and hope that they get better. Or you can reschedule your date.
