Clear, blemish free skin in no time!
Pimples and zits are the products of bacteria and clogged pores. When you see a white head, the thing you squeeze and white stuff comes out of it, that is a mix of dead bacteria, blood, and the white blood cells that combatted the bacteria... the mixture is known as pus. If you must squeeze, make sure your hands are clean or you use a pimple tool. Due to the way the blood vessels in the face lead directly to drainage sinuses in the head, it has been known to occur that if you squeeze a pimple, it can lead to an infection and even meningitis... So squeeze at your own discretion. I do believe it is better to let the pimple pop when it is ripe (whiteheaded). Some pimples after treatment go away on their own but before they do, they are hard lumps beneath the skin and when they go away, they leave a faint scar.
To prevent pimples, I suggest sleep and drinking plenty of water each day, at least eight cups. During menstruation, however, due to hormone levels and changes, many females have acne. I do not know if it is true, but eating hot peppers and very oil foods may lead to pimples as well.
Overall, try not to touch your face so often. Your hands and fingers are so dirty, it's just disgusting to add oil and germs to the pores in your skin. Having oily skin leads to breakouts, yes. Still, dry skin is uncomfortable. The following is not foolproof but it will work.
Wash your face daily with a soap. A good soap is Clinique Antibacterial Facial Soap. Follow with a toner or an astringent. After that, apply an oil-free lotion. Once a week or twice, clean your t-zone with a scrub. That will exfoliate your skin and clear some pores.
To treat pimples and zits that are incredibly big, ice them. This will not cure them but it will lessen the redness. I have heard about applying toothpaste and even wart-remover salicylic acid, but that stings and the labels on plantar wart removers say specifically to not apply them on the face. I have also heard about Cortisone or red-remover eyedrops to ease the redness of zits.
Finally, if you do have zits and they are killing your social life, just wear them proudly because underneath the blemish is clear skin and one day, you will have clear skin, unless something is wrong with you genetically. After all, if someone doesn't like you because of how you look, that person is not a good anything at all, be he or she a friend or relative or crush or love.
Still, if you take care of your skin and prevent breakouts, it will only be a matter of time and persistence that will bring the results you seek. Hope this helps.
