If I have pimples on my face I try not to touch them. I have tea tree oil soap and I use that on my face and body and it helps with pimples. It is a very nice soap and it smells good. Sometimes I use facial wash that is for pimples. Have a nice day. Pablo

I used to get my pimples even if it's not totally healed.I used to get those one and I like and enjoyed most the feeling of getting those pimples on my checks.

I always popped my pimples when I had them. I don't know why, it was just like an obsession with me. I knew about washing and using medication but I still popped them.

i have friends who love to pop their pimples and acne when they are suffering from one. even if i tell them not to do it, they say, they want to. like they can't stop their fingers by doing so.

Even if I want to, I don't touch my pimples because I don't want to cause infection adn make matters worse. I clean my face with an antiseptic wash, dab on some astringent, apply oil free mosturizer and finally put a smalla mount of pimple clearing on the pimple. I use Eskinol Pimple Clearing gel, it stings a little but the pimple dries up in a week.

I didn't have that much of problem with the pimples when I was growing up. I would leave it alone and heard that if you pop it they would spread more.

I get acne all over, from the top of my head to the tip of my toes. I torture them, because I hate them, but they no longer hurt, when I pop them. One good way to dry out a pimple is to put toothpaste on it at night time and sleep with it on there. By morning, it will be dried out and have formed a scab.

nope. i don't get and kill my pimples. i wait until it's perfectly healed. i don't want to have scars on my face that's why it's better to leave it there until it's okey. i always try to wash it with mild soap and water atleast thrice a day.

Thankfully, I don't have that problem anymore. I hate pimples and I just can't stand the look of them. I guess as older as you get, they'll go away eventually.

you are doing the right thing because squeesing pimples can result in the poison going inward and then you can get a blood infection wich is a real problem !I know this because it happened to one of my grandchildren and it was realy a bad situation

I got a few of them when I was younger ,but it disappeared in a few days.I think when we don't bother them ,they just disappear in some time.Sometimes, it depends on the nature of your skin i.e whether it's oily ,dry etc.Every skin type has it's own way of reacting to the pimples.

sometimes when i got no sleep or i am excited on something, i get one pimple on my face and i really dislike it. i always tried not to touch it or anything but it bugs me alot when i look on my face in the mirror. so what i did sometimes was to pinch it till it bleeds and clean it, after the day or two its gone but it leaves a dark spot on my face. and i know its gonna happen but i just can't stop myself sometimes by doing that and afterwards i regret what i did.

Try A vinegar and water rinse on your face after washing. What kind of soap do ya use? Well as long as ya wash it to keep the dirt and oil off. But try a vinagar water rinse it does help with the acne.
