If you’re a victim of pimples popping out on your face before a big party or a date, then you need to read this. No one can control these obnoxious zits that appear on your face, but what you can control is its removal. That is, if you know the right way.

1. FOR A DAY BEFORE: Tea tree oil and aloe vera gel

Tea tree oil has antibacterial and antifungal properties that help soothe the inflammation on the skin caused by pimples. Aloe vera gel is known for its calming properties that reduce blisters and promote new skin growth. A concoction of tea tree oil and aloe vera works as a double agent to tackle the bacteria. First, wash your face with an anti-pimple face wash. Then, apply the mix with afresh cotton ball over the pimple. Repeat after two hours.

2. FOR A NIGHT BEFORE: Good ol’ toothpaste

The ingredients in toothpaste help kill the bacteria that causes and can flatten it. Its application dries the pimple. Note: Use a white toothpaste only. Wash your face with an anti-pimple face wash at night and use the paste to cover the affected area. Sleep it off and wash the residue in the morning.

3. FOR AN HOUR BEFORE: Use a concealer

The concealer is a great life saver when in a pinch. It will conceal a zit’s redness and bumpiness, and leave your skin with a smooth finish.
