Since I'm not a dermatologist nor a filthy-rich individual who can afford to go ask a dermie to zap my zit every time, I have found some cheaper urban-myth ways to kill a zit. This is what I found:
- Rubbing crushed garlic cloves on a pimple stops it from swelling and cures it.
- Mix 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and apply - they should shrink. In time, not, like, immediately.
- Apply a little bit of honey to the pimple.
- Do NOT go around poking/bursting it - EWWW!
- One of the best treatments is to apply juice of a fresh papaya fruit to it.
- Applying lemon/lime juice and honey is good too.
- Blending cucumber in a blender and applying to your skin for about 30 minutes can prevent you from getting acne/pimples. My sister ALWAYS DOES THIS :D
- 1 Applying a little bit of toothpaste dries it out.
- Dissolving aspirin in water and washing your face with it can help.
- Don't go rubbing/touching/squeezing/bursting it etc
- Steaming your face twice a day.
- Applying white vinegar cures it
- Keep your face hydrated and drink LOTS OF WATER!
