Persistent Pimples

I have a small pimple which has formed on my forehead, close to my hairline. It has no visible head and has been popped but it now feels extremely hard and has become further raised. Does anyone know how to treat it?

    Try something Tea Tree Oil based, like The body Shop’s range for long-term control; for spot control, Clearasil does a good night treatment spot-clearer.

    There was a bh article saying not to put toothpaste on pimples, I think it can cause skin burning on those with sensitive skin (can’t remember). I use Clearasil for my monthly pimples.

    One thing my Aunty taught me: when the instructions say to apply to the affected area, this does NOT mean a 1-2cm radius from the pimple. If you’ve got a pimple on your left cheek, you apply the pimple cream to the whole left cheek! I used to wonder why topical creams were ineffective.

    Before you go to bed wash your face with a face wash that is soap free like pears transparent bar or Neutrogena transparent bar . Pat your face dry and apply some toothpaste directly on the pimple and it should be just about gone in the morning. If not just repeat once or twice. Also make sure that you do not use the gel , it has to be the paste. Trust me this really works and it is cheap as well.

    Sometimes you can get a build up of fat on your skull which is what it may be. They can be removed but are not harmful so don’t worry! I have a couple but have left them alone because they are inactive. Just get it checked out if you think it may be that. However it could just be a pimple and for that I use Clearasil Rapid Action Pimple Cream which is so helpful.

    Don’t stress to much and if it bothers you, just get it checked out. 🙂

    I think, you need not to be worry, it’s just a pimple, Just keep it in mind not to massage over the pimple and stop touching pimple. For the better relief, I will recommend you to use leading brands, natural face cleanser based upon your skin type, which help you in cleaning your skin internally or keeps your skin smooth, radiant and nourished without affecting your natural beauty. So, must use for the betterment of your skin 🙂

    Or try Dettol antiseptic cream. That should help if there’s any infection present.

    Sukin rose hip oil! I swear by it I use to get pimples and after using the sukin cleanser, moisturiser and oil my skin has improved so much!
