How to Get
Rid of Pimples Fast
Pimples are a normal skin condition that affect many
people.
Excess sebum secretion by the oil glands is the
primary cause behind this problem. Pimples generally occur on the face, neck,
back and shoulders. Though not a critical condition, pimples can make a person
feel miserable due to their appearance.
There are a lot of lotions and medicines on the market
to treat pimples but they can take time. Many natural methods are effective in
treating pimples within a very short time period.
Here are the top 10 ways to get rid of pimples fast.
1.
Ice
Ice can be used to quickly reduce the redness,
swelling and inflammation of pimples. It helps in improving blood circulation
to the affected area, and in tightening the skin
pores and removing
dirt and oil accumulated on the skin. You can use ice cubes or crushed ice,
whichever is convenient.
1.
Wrap
the ice in a piece of cloth and hold it on the affected skin area for a few
seconds.
2.
Wait
a few minutes and repeat the process.
2.
Lemon
Another quick way to get rid of pimples is the use of
lemon juice, which is rich in vitamin C. Lemon juice helps pimples dry up
faster. Be sure to use fresh lemon juice and not bottled juice, which has
preservatives. There are a couple of ways to apply this remedy.
- Dip a clean cotton swab in
fresh lemon juice and apply it to the pimples before going to bed.
- You can also mix one
tablespoon of lemon juice with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder and put it
on the pimples overnight. In the morning, wash the skin well with lukewarm
water. However, this particular remedy is not suitable for those with
sensitive skin.
3.
Tea Tree Oil
Tea tree oil is excellent for treating acne and
pimples. It has antibacterial properties that help fight the bacteria that
cause these skin problems.
Plus, its soothing properties help reduce the redness
and inflammation of pimples. It also helps dry out blackheads and
whiteheads.
- Just dip a cotton ball in tea
tree essential oil and dab it on the affected area. Rinse your face after
15 to 20 minutes.
- Another option is to mix a few
drops of tea tree oil in 1 tablespoon of aloe Vera gel. Apply it on your
pimples and blemishes, leave it on for 20 minutes and then rinse it off.
Note: Steer clear of tea tree oil if you have sensitive
skin.
4.
Toothpaste
The toothpaste that you use every morning to clean
your teeth also can be used to treat pimples quickly. It is most effective when
used following the ice remedy. You must use white toothpaste; avoid using gel
toothpaste.
1.
Apply
some white toothpaste over the affected skin area before going to bed.
2.
In
the morning, wash your face with water and you will see a significant
improvement in the swelling.
If you wish, you can repeat the process in the daytime
also. Just make sure the toothpaste remains on the pimples for at least half an
hour.
5.
Steam
Steaming is wonderful for your skin at any time, but
particularly when you have pimples. The steam will open your
pores and allow your skin to breathe. This helps get rid of oils,
dirt and bacteria trapped in the pores that can cause infection or
inflammation.
1.
Fill a large container with hot water and allow the steam to come in contact
with your face for a few minutes.
2.
Rinse
your face with lukewarm water and, after drying, apply an oil-free moisturizer.
6.
Garlic
Garlic is an antiviral, anti fungal, antiseptic and
antioxidant agent that can help in the fast treatment of pimples. The sulfur in
garlic also promotes quick healing of pimples.
1.
Cut
a fresh garlic clove into two pieces.
2.
Rub
the garlic on the pimples and leave it for five minutes before washing the skin
with lukewarm water.
3.
Repeat
the treatment several times a day.
Eating one raw garlic clove daily can also help purify
your blood. But do not to eat too much raw garlic as it can upset the stomach.
