Cure for popping pimples and random minor nasty puss pimples

[Bulldogsandwich]

I get pimples from dairy, and hormones and eventually I kept popping them until I had red marks everywhere and still had pimples. I got sick of it, and nothing was working. My mom asked me to try rubbing cortizone cream into them and it made them stop swelling and getting puss and go away in a day rather than having a red mark on my face for two weeks. Note, it doesn't stop the acne you just have to target it when it first starts to form and be alert, right now I have no pimples or at least a few bumps no one notices, it's awesome! I'm gonna use this for the rest of my teenage years. This isn't some miracle cure just know it won't stop you from getting pimples, it will just zap them away really fast better than any retarted acne cleaning kit. I don't want to waste the cream, but maybe if you spread it all over your face it will completely stop your face from breaking out?

Cortisone is generaly not recomended for acne - it tends to make it worse over time

I would suggest using 55 benzoyl peroxide at night and 2% salacylic acid in the morning, both after clensing the skin.

Individual zits can be dabbed with pure tea tree oil to dry them up and speed healing

Yeah I discovered that, I just put milk of magnesia on them now to dry them out.

Don't be fooled, milk of magnesia doesn't cure oily faces...
