There are steps you can take to ensure when you pop your pimple, its safe, clean and painless
- Wash your tweezers/needle with anti-bacterial soap...I recommend even dipping it in alcohol.
- Use your tweezers to pick the "peak" of the pimple..make sure NOT to grab the whole pimple or a chunk..
- Use your fingers to squeeze the pimple..this step is so important, a lot of people think its disgusting and for go it. This will help drain the fluids and maybe a dot of blood.
- Wipe your pimple with tea tree oil or an all natural astringent like Witch Hazel. I tend to clean my pimple with witch hazel every few hours, but this step is entirely up to you
- Do these steps at night, so your skin has time to relax and heal.
- Wash your face in the morning and apply witch hazel to the area
- make sure you only do this to one or two pimples, that are far apart. you can't pop your whole cheeks.
- Avoid makeup on the pimple for atleast 3-5 hours.
- you might have to redo the steps, just wait 6-7 hours before "repopping"
- This works just as well on In grown hair as well
What if you don't want to pop it, and you're looking for a much more gentler approach?
